I've never seen one in my life and I have the opportunity to own one for a VERY reasonable price. It's got rotted rocker's, but other than that, it's solid. It is the 18R-C engine, Chassis RT95. It's a coupe, it's SOLID other than the rockers. It's an auto, unfortunately.... and reads 60k on the odometer.

It definitely needs some work, and would be a project car. BUT, this is the first time I've EVER seen one in upstate NY and I have fallen in love.

My question is, how rare are these and is it worth missing a months rent to get it? I have pics, but I don't want to show much until I actually get it lol.

This is exactly what it looks like, only a resprayed blue:

Very nice! MarkII?

Whelp, I'm buying it. I've already got more than half the money set aside and in two weeks, I'll be handing him the cash.

Here is a teaser pic:

My boss is talking about how the automatic tranny in these isn't such a bad thing. He says you can still have a lot of fun with them and can definitely get it sideways. I've already got a ton of ideas going through my head... but first plan is to do the JDM fender mount mirrors like the picture above.
