so i have been thinkin about gettin rid of my civic because its an automatic and its a DX... no power windows, ac, power locks or anything like that. i really want a Civic EX coupe 5speed, so i have been lookin around on craigslist and found these 2. im thinkin the white one is better, all it needs is new bumper fender and lights. the other one im not to sure about.

EDIT: the white one is also cheaper

 

i figure if i can sell my car for like 2200 or so and i buy the white one for 1499 ill have 700 to put into it

 

second one has been flagged for removal.

the 1st one however could be easily fixed. Probably gunna cost you $200ish depending on where you get your parts. Then you will have to paint it. I guese rattle canning it would be fine, just make sure you do a really good job. That will leave you with around $400 bucks. I would then put that towards maintance of the car. Since that car was in an accident im guesing it has been sitting for awhile and could need some regular maintance anyways. Honestly tho $700 wont get you too far considering it needs some work so in terms of modding it, you wont be left with too much cash to play with. But i would definitly get that white one if it checks out

 

looks like the hood is a little off.....Mine was like that after i rear ended someone. Might need new hood hinges....maybe. Just something to be aware of.

 

The white will look nice once fixed. What type of modding are you trying to do with your extra money?

Also, since it is an EX, your insurance rates may go up although it's one year older (since you have DX now). You can always call and ask for a general quote for replacing your current vehicle with that 95 EX coupe.

 

so i just talked to the guy today and he sold the white one already so that sucks
