    Post which one ?!?!?

    Ok, yesterday I was driving around and found the car. I mean RARE RARE find. It is a 1989 ,Dark Blood Red, LXI auto coup, PERFECT PERFECT SPOT FREE interior, no dents, scratchs, rust on the body, clean engine, ok here is the major thing, only 51k miles on it. Its at one of those car lots where they ask CRAZY ASS prices. Anyways, he is asking $3900 for it. ^doh^

    Also in the same lot he has an 89, Gold, 5sp, LX, body is in near mint condition, interior is a nasty brown color. engine is ok with 151k miles on it, needs clutch, and they are asking $2800 for it.

    now with this all in mind, i also may be able to get a 1990 acura legend, coupe, 5sp, leather interior, sunroof, factory Bose system, v6, they are asking $2800 for this one. This car is in Tennessee. I havent seen it yet but my gramps has and said it is in great condition. He is going to wait or talk to the car lot owner to come down to about $1000. He has is connections as he has been a honda mechanic for near 20 years after he retired.

    And then my mom was saying i should wait because "Good things come to those who wait" WHAT THE HELL SHOULD I DO. Yall shoulda seen that honda coupe. Its located about 2 1/2 hours from Dallas or 12 miles west of Longview, Tx. Here in Kilgore.
    So help me out. thx. Now remember i dont have any $$, it would all have to bee coming from my gramps or my dad. Havent gotten a job since i moved from Houston a few months back, im focusing on graduateing is why. Now if i was to try to get one of these accords, i would deffently get a job and get a loan from my friends bank.

    i'd go with the accord lx-i, even though it's a auto, it has really low miles, it's rare, and it's like you said, IN PERFECT FUCKING CONDITION. easy choice for me, i don't know about you though.

    i think he is asking a lil too much however. I think im going to go with the legend, they looked clean once you customize it. they are like the 3geez, not many aftermarket parts for them i.e bodykits and engine stuff

    For 51k, that's not a bad price at all.

    i agree, and added to that, if the car is that impecable, then it's well worth the money. go for the 'cord.

    the only thing is, just the yr, an 1989 for 3900 bucks? there are civics here that are cheaper than that. I would of busted out Kellys Blue book to nego the price but hell, for that condition accord, kelly said at near 4100 bucks, lol. I think im going to go with the legend if i can get it. There are some clean Legend G1's out there, ill post of a pic of one modded. Really nice
