    Looks like the power steering is a little low.

    How could the exhaust last that many miles...they must have commuted long distances, but never a crash, that is good driving!

    usually the exhaust rots out from driving the car too little. The more you drive the car the less moisture builds up in it, and the longer it lasts. My exhaust was all stock less than a couple years ago except for the muffler (before going turbo)

    Re: i wouldnt hesitate to drive this

    The car has never been in an accident
    IF this has never been in ANY accident, then someone has got to explain to me WHY it has an 86-87 trunk???

    Re: i wouldnt hesitate to drive this

    the lights/bezel come off with a bunch of 8mm nuts in the trunk lid. The actual trunk lid is the same. Interesting catch though, it might have been rear ended because some of the paint is chipping off of the bumper cover in the rear, and honda parts/honda paint very rarely does this. The seam for the small panels under the taillights looks like it was bondo'd in also and smoothed off a little. The bumper plastic isnt as faded as the front plastic bumper either. On my car they are faded pretty evenly and then i swapped it out

    No no!

    The 86-87 trunklid is different. The lights won't fit from one model to another. The 86-87 has a wider indentation on the bottom wheer you got the license plate frame.

    Compare both, you'll see what I mean.

    That is really clean - but $1,125 RESERVE NOT MET! I hate ebayer's with their stupid fantasy reserve prices. He's probably got it reserved at like $2k. If he can get $1,125 he should take it and run.
