I need a car, something that doesn't bend me over the pump and that I can fit my bass stack in. This is a car (just listed today):

a) is this a good deal, or too good of a deal?
a2) any issues I need to look out for with this year/make/model?
b) the guy selling it is named "Dong"
c) V-TEC JUST KICKED IN, YO

v-tec's are real nice, but i know from past experiance that the lifetime of those engines is like 150,000. or at least that's what i was told when mine blew.

No, joke, in high school there were three brothers named Long, Dong and Tong. Last name, Thor.

That era Honda can last forever if it was well taken care of, ps

from what i remember being told by a mechanic when looking at a prelude with a v-tech engine he said it was really expensive to fix if it breaks. something about the way the pushrods are designed.

Long Duk Dong?

I can't wait to ask this dude, "Dong, where is my automobile?"

ONLY MIVEC IS REAL

find a buick roadmaster/chevy caprice wagon with an lt1. shit gets like 26-28 mpg highway (depending on how you drive and gearing. although people that have 3.73s have reported getting 28+ mpg on long highway trips) and it can hold all of your band's equipment in it. reliable, comfortable, and smooth.

94-96 chevy caprice/buick roadmaster is what you would be looking for.


i will rep those cars til the day i die.

And once you get the caprice you'll want to swap out the lt1 for a B16B so you can still feel VTEC kick in yo

stay away from an lt1, offer them 1200 for the honda and call it a day. get the timing belt done at some point unless its already been done and you should be able to get 200,000 out of the engine

I got it. Shit's clean, most everything's solid. DONG WAGON IS GOOOOOOOO

not bad. 129k for a 96? damn. I'm nearing 150k and I've got an 00.
