Hey now, speak for yourself. I know they're not ITR OEM, but the seats are different/nice.

Looks OK. Too bad it's modded already. Seller says it's "all original" so maybe he has the stock parts. S2K seats are gay but buying a pair of stockers shouldn't be too hard or pricey. $13,500 seems a bit high.

Are you looking for a another R to daily, mod, track or put it a time capsule?

PNW? New S2K seats? Those things are close to 7k brand new from the dealer. My guess, is they were/are stolen.

I thought they were around 8-10k depending on where you buy them? Anyways, the chances of those seats being new is about 0.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001%.

The car is too personalized to draw that price IMO.

this car is for a friend of mine.

owner doesnt have any of the stock items. claims to have gotten the car like that. i know the privious owner, and he didnt sell it like that.

my buddy has a set of ITR seats from his old car. he would really prefer a stock car...that is slammed. so we will probably just put it back to stock slowly.

i work at Honda... "new" seats are stolen seats.

buddy thats looking to buy would be driving it. or parking it. no racing. he has other shit to drive if needed.

They may be new seats to him, but they are not "NEW"...

I can tell by the wear marks on the top back plastic headrest pieces....Mine looked the same way b/c I had to slide the seats all the way back, and they rub on the factory roll hoop plastic.....

Overall the car looks nice, although I don't like the seats at all. Stock usdm wheels would be a plus also. He sais he has the title in hand, but is it clean??
Price would be ok if all stock parts were included in sale, but it sounds like he doesn't have any of those left.

he doesnt have the stock parts, and its not a clean title. he bought the car without the swap and seats. dont care what it says, or him. i really do doubt him.


it really would be worth more, to me, and the guy putting up the cash if it really was OEM and stock... doesnt even need a clean title if the story is legit...

This car looks fishy to me. Sounds like the owner is just trying to make a profit. And snow tires?! What a joke!

i dont really care if he is trying to make a profit. and from my messaging him back and forth he doesnt seem firm on the price. wants me to come look at the car, and go from there. and i already told him that i wouldnt pay 13k for it (i know it says 13.5k lol, im a jew). and still wants to show it to me and go from there.


so what is a reasonable offer you think for this? my buddy offered me 10k for mine this morning LOL. told him to fuck off. BUT... im thinking that this car is in the 10-11k range. give or take some S2000 seats (like i said, we got a set of ITR seats). would you guys say so? what you think?

btw ill hit the facts again: THEFT title, assuming it actually has a B18C5/B18C-R swap. some mods for better or worse.

Why dont you just hold out for one that you are certain you want? That is what I would do.

You seem kinda shakey on it and personally I do not think it is all that good of a deal. Wait a few weeks and you may find a better opterunity else where.

Glad to hear since that kid just tells people what they want to hear. So he can try and make some cash off of them . Post pic's when cleaned up!
