1989 SE-i For Sale......

just to let you guys know, i will possibly be selling my accord. it is a 1989 SE-i. it is gray in color, and has 205k on it.

i have owned it since 200k, and have had no major problems with it. new back brakes as of yesterday. has full leather interior, no rips, but the drivers seat outer bolster is starting to show some wear. windsheild is about 4k old. alternator/water pump belt replaced 500 miles ago. has moonroof, but it keeps popping fuses. power windows work nicely. heat works awesome. cruise control. 5spd. clutch and tranny are really nice. car has always started up. most reliable car i have ever owned.

email for pics, i should have some tomorrow. also any questions you have please feel free to contact me via email ([email protected]) or at 518-834-9097. the only reason i am selling is because i need to drop my b18a turbo into something. if you have a civic or crx, maybe we can work something out. otherwise, i am looking to get $1500, which i think is an excellent price.

and although i am new to this board, i post actively on hondaswap.com. again, feel free to call me with any questions.

thanks!
ted

as in yes :D

sure, ill sell ya the cup holders for $1500, and i will even throw in the rest of the car for free:)

lol that wuz a good one ... will you be interested in parting it out if you dont get any buyers

your the second person who did that to me its not even funny:mad: :D but i asked for the sunroof wind deffector thingy and his answer was the same as yours ASS'es i tell ya ASS'es :D :lol

Sure, I'll buy it. I'll even throw in no money for 1,500 dollars!

LOL, sorry about that man. and I am not sure about parting out the car. it is really too nice to part out, i am not sure if i really have the time and energy to do it. i have enough projects going on right now, and room is a big concern. if i dont sell it, i will keep it and drive it, because i know i can get 300k out of it with little or no repairs. i am more interested in a trade for a rex or civic, so i can drop my turbo b18 in......

drop the turbo b18 into the Accord?? http://www.thepike.net/forum/images/smilies/dunno.gif What color is the interior? 4dr or 2dr? If you ever wanted to part I would be interested in the interior if it is black.

2 dr, and the interior is dark gray. again i would prefer not to part the car out, unless there is enough interest to make it worthwhile to me.....

and i would prefer to put the b18 is a civic or rex bc 1st i am familiar with the swap, and second, i would rather have a 210hp car that weighs 2000lbs, not 3000. LOL

Post some pics of it.

im still waiting for my friend to bring down his digital camera and snap some pics........but a shot of the nose was caught on accident in a series of pictures of one of my projects. it is the third one down. i know it really doesnt show much of the car. as soon as i get some real pics up, i will post them. and the color is a dark gray, not that ugly tan color.

http://www.hondaswap.com/forums/inde...ic=16718&st=75

i guess it would help if i posted a link!!!

The accord isnt 3000lbs. It is in the 2500 zone. Also, dark gray works for me.... :)

hmm... it's no rex, or civic, but it's fun.... how's 'bout a '97 YZ-125?

j/k, but I would love to have that car. the whole car.

lol, i would probably kill myself!! if it was a jetski i would be all over it though. also, i may be willing to go lower on the car, i was planning on putting new tires on it for my asking price of $1500, but if i dont have to get into that, than the price will def be lower.

ill give ya 1k and ill drive allll the way from GA to get it

sorry, i really dont think i can go that low. give me a call, and maybe we can work something out. where in ga are you?

damn..........and you are only like 3.5hrs away!

time are tight, theres an se-i around here for 1500, but alas i cant afford anymore purchases till next summer

where in northern ny are you man??

if you say plattsburgh area, than thats prob my car!!! LOL

come on, no offers??

no sorry, 1ks all i can do, thats all im willing to spend on a project car, none of the se-i luxurities will stay, and with 205k miles, 1000 is just about right to me

i got your back i wouldnt pay that much either too many miles the car can give out any minute

well that is the highest (only) offer i have right now, keep in touch with me. also if i was to accept that, i def would not be purchasing tires, and i dont think you want to drive it to GA with a temp spare on one side, so something would have to be worked out there.

if i buy the car, my 96 GSR wheels would go on there since they have new tires

alright well lets talk, if you wanna call me tomorrow that would be cool, or if you want me to call you, thats cool too. let me know

I'd pay 2000 for it AT LEAST, if I had the money. Over here in Washington, 1500 is a steal. I paid 2000 for my 86 DX with 220,000 miles on it. Ted, I wouldn't take his offer. Hold out for a while, someone is bound to buy it. Just my two cents.

thanks for your opinion, and having thought about it, i have decided to hold out a little longer, although i will keep your offer in mind. pics will be up tomorrow night hopefully!!!

thanks

I don't mean to ruin a deal but that is an SE-i and it's worth more than that.

I hope somebody from this site buys it, or at least someone who realizes what it is and what potential it has.

Let me clarify even more: the resale of cars here in Washington is pretty high. Maybe over on the east coast, that's a lot for an SE-i like that, I don't know. So please disregard my opinion if such conditions are applicable... I just thought the offer was too low by Washington standards. Sorry for interupting.

well, before i put a price on my car, i looked all over ny and vermont. i found ONE other SE-i. it had more mileage than my car, the interior was in horrible shape, and they were asking 2k for it. a ton of lx-i's and they sold between 1k and 3k depending on mileage, and condition.......but my car needs tires.

so i figured 1500 would be a quick sale, and i put it on this site because i would prefer someone bought it with intentions of building it, not beating it. honestly if i advertised it locally i could prob sell it same day for 1k, someone would buy it as a winter beater.........

Ummm if he's just going to strip it why doesn't he get a lxi? And get a sei 2 stage intake manifold.

Probably thinks he can screw tedwright.

hey thanks for giving me your honest opinions guys!

DAMN!!!!!! and i sold my 89 dx with 106 k for 1300!!!!!!! ERRRRR

ok ghettoaccord, i think at this point you just came after this thread because you didnt agree with me on the swap thread, i wasnt outt o screw anybody, i just offered him 1k because thats all im willing to pay for a 3gee. hell i sold my 88 lx sedan for 1k and it only had 150k miles, and he was looking for a quick sale so i just threw out an offer...and i dont give a f*ck about whats happening in washington, that has nothing to do with this thread because this is of course the east coast... try and keep your over opinionated ass out of threads i post in

I will take 1200 FIRM, and i dont worry about anything to do with the tires, that is left up to the buyer. rims are all nice and straight, but it needs tires really badly. i was going to get pics tonight, i was gonna use my buddys digital video camera, but we got tied up on his turbo 98 teg. just upgraded the injectors, wired up the apexi safc, and are having major problems getting it to run right. cant seem to get the a/f mixture right......

1200 now thats a steal

arrrrrrrr! must... maintain focus... on chevrolet things..
bump for you, that's a fuckin deal, someone jump on this!

well, ive read this post and carlessncareless, you have a teg for sale in your post for 2k. Well this guy happens to be looking for teg for his b18 turbo. Is it just me or why dont you work out a trade to where one of you bring the car or meat half way and swap plus a couple bucks. Thats just me though and maybe you havent updated your posts.

Careless... I don't think you had your wheaties this morning. I think I speak for everyone when I say ted is giving a great deal... and your offer is crap! Someone jump on it though.

my offers crap yet he only wants 200 more? i see. i guess for 1200 i could sell off those damned se-i wheels and leather interior, but oh well ill keep looking

i agree w/ ghetto on this.. wouldn't it be worth it not to keep looking if you both get the car you want?! then we won't have to look at this lowball/insult bullshit and you are happy w/ your new car

i might be interested in something like that, lets swap phone numbers and get some details here.

bump for my car!:)

when you say rex you must mean crx.

Over here on the west coast (at least around where i live) rex means WRX. It took me a second to realize that cause i didnt see the reason for putting a turbo b18 in a WRX.........:lol

how much u want for it ? got any pics

1200 firm, and im sorry, working on the pics!!!

ttt

just to give you guys an update, i put tires on the car. tires are all good tread, and brakes are all new. no vibration, no pulling, no BS. car is very solid. would feel comfortable driving it anywhere. im still waiting to borrow a buddys digital camera to snap some pics. $1200 firm. come on, someone jump on this great car!

i'm giving him a fender in a little while to replace the kicked in one, after that the car will need a little rust work to be mint

god damn it!!!! another bump because i'm so about to take the $1500 offer i got on the camry and get this sei, especially since people won't be straight with me on an estimate for the z34 and nobody around rebuilds engines in-house. how many doors does this sei have? if it's 4dr i am going to crap my pants.

its a 2dr, ive driven it, guess the guy fixed alot of stuff so its worth the 1500 now, especially with a new fender

hm well i can't transplant my old interior and it's kind of high mileage.. i'm still seriously considering this. the toyota has almost 173k now and those things show wear earlier than accords. fuck..

the interior is very nice, there is a little wear on the driver side bolster, from getting in and out of the car. no rips or tears what so ever. interior would suggest 50k miles or less. im hoping to get pics up as soon as my friend comes over with his digital camera. the car really runs and drives perfect. as far as body goes, there was a dented front fender which whill be replaced(same color), and a little rust over the rear fender wells. i would NEVER guess the car had 207k on it (as of now).

Is the car 5spd or auto? And is the rust on the fenders surface or through?

5 spd, some rust on the rear wheel wells is thru

Alright guys, I am leaving for Denver on Tuesday, I'm flying out. I am selling the SE-i (2dr) once again, and it needs to go before Tuesday. I have put new tires on it, brakes are all new. Only thing wrong with the car is as follows:

Meshy piece in exhaust has leak. 26 bucks from JC Whitney
Moonroof pops fuses(believe it is aftermarket)
Leather is all perfect except for drivers (door-side) bolster. It is not ripped, but starting to show some wear.
No head unit for Bose Radio. Had aftermarket Cd player that crapped out.
Rust on both rear quarters where wheel arch meets bumper. It IS through, about enough to stick a finger MAYBE two through the hole (1 on each side)
A/C does not blow cold
Axles tick when you turn the wheel all the way over and pull forward.(notice it when parking in lots, or making U turn. Has done it since I have owned the car, and has not gotten worse.)

Other than that the cars engine is strong, tranny is strong, clutch is strong, steering is good, tires are good, brakes are all recent, CLEAR TITLE. New windshield, everything works except for otherwise stated. Cruise, PW, heat works awesome. Car had head redone about 20k miles ago before I bought the car. Since I've owned it, new tires, brakes, all belts, windsheild, clutch.

Now the good part. I am flying out on Tuesday. Car needs to be gone by then. It will be listed in the local paper for $800. I am offering it here to you guys for $700. If someone offers me $699 I will laugh at them and tell them to get lost. This is an incredible deal for a car that has potential to be perfect with a little bit of work. NEEDS TO GO.

$700 reduced price
