i know there are several people who know so much more about cars then I do...... so from what people know, what do you think and know about Aruca Integras? I have a friend who is offerig to give me his Integra. Its been a project car, so its kinda... wel sloppy and junk right now. Its a 91 I think..... maybe a 90. but it has around 210k miles on it. Is it worth it to even get this car. he said hed sell it to me for $150. Do I even consider it?

If the body is in good shape it's worth $150, but with 200k + miles it will most likely need the top end rebuilt. If you have money to burn on a engine swap and a load of spare time on your hands it could be fun, otherwise it's a nightmare.

You can only get it if you promise to moddify it like this....

I have 2 integras, and i love them, the only down side to owning one is that they tend to get stolen... way to often. If i was you i wouldnt buy someone elses project. i would find a nice clean 94-01 5spd ls or gsr all stock!! if you can afford one.

Don't buy this one. Based on the way the front bumper is fit onto the car I'd hate to see any of the owners other "work".

why buy that?? ... 150 dls ?? ... all those low price cars always end up being a 3000 dls car after a few weeks, there is many more nice cars or in better conditions for less than 1k... if i was you i would keep looking... i got a escort gt 2 years ago from 800 bucks... it wasnt perfect but at least is easy to work on them... here is my escort as it is right now... after 400 bucks on parts...

i am just looking for something that is cheap so I dont have to take out a loan but doesnt need a lot of work. I just need something for now until I can get my hospital bills paid down. That is preventing me from getting a loan for even 500.00 I want to get a focus. but the cheapest I have found was 3500 and that was with 160k with a blownout tranny and torn up interior. It was a 2000 zx5.
