2007 Used Honda Civic Si CIVIC SI at Honda Bloomfield Serving Bloomfield Hills, MI, IID 7453093
I am tempted by this car. I went and drove it on Saturday. It's got a Greddy exhaust and RBC intake manifold. It's been tuned on Hondata as well. The dealership doesn't know exactly how much power it makes, but it feels pretty solid. It's also lowered (don't know what with yet), and is set up for HIDs.
Cons I see are:
-Mileage somewhat high for the year (almost 70k)
-Hood has some rock chips that have rusted and the windshield is cracked. I don't know what the deal with the windshield is. It's a pretty decent crack but the Carfax shows no accidents. They said they would replace it.
-Janky side skirts that are held on with double-sided tape. I would want them off, but I don't know what it will look like underneath.
-Car is lowered already (which is a good thing), but it could be with cheap junk.
-With the mileage and the mods, it's possible the car was beat on. And because of the mods and the mileage, Honda won't certify it or offer a warranty.
Thoughts? They were trying to sell it to me for 16 on Saturday, so if I could get it for 12,900 AND trade in my Integra AND throw some cash on it too, that would look pretty nice financially. I wonder about the reason for the price drop though...
