for reasons i do not want to disclose, the car needs to go.

1997 Rev A 1.8l. It's pretty much all stock.. 87,000 miles. only thing i've done to it was the resonator removal.

*CEL is on. i forgot the code, but it has to do w/ an O2 sensor. whether it be one is bad or theres a leak in between the 2 or something.
*hatch rattles. real annoying. and i've done all the trial and error i could do to shut it up (w/ those rubber things) and it still won't be quiet.
*"reconstructed" title. i put in quotes cuz states call it different things.. basically it was in an accident. i don't know the details about it

as far as i'm concerned someone can buy this as a parts car and make their money back /and then some/. its definately driveable, but i never felt like doing the things worthy of making it 100% and now i need it to go... and i would part it out, but quite frankly i don't want the hassle of dibs, PMs, IMs, and taking things apart and shippin 'em.... SO DON'T ASK ME FOR ANY PARTS.

$1200 or best reasonable offer

is it auto or manual? <span style="color:#FF0000">manual</span>
hows the interior shape? <span style="color:#FF0000">not bad at all for a 9 year old car. the passenger seat is staind from spills but thats about it. </span>
any problems with the suspension, idling, anything out of the norm.? <span style="color:#FF0000">nope, that seems to be okay</span>
any other annoyences <spl? like the hatch? (exhaust rattling, suspension, weird idle sounds?) <span style="color:#FF0000">the exhaust is loud. could be from the fart can the previous owner welded on or from an exhaust leak... or both</span>
can i possibly get some more pics? cuz imma be coming to pick it up, and wont be able to just drop by and look at it. <span style="color:#FF0000">i'll take more pictures when the rain stops. who knows when that will be</span>
hows the body? <span style="color:#FF0000">the hood has chips in it. color doesn't match as good as it should. its noticeable in certain lighting, but not terribly obvious.</span>
hows the clutch/auto shifting? <span style="color:#FF0000">i'm not having any issues with the clutch.</span>

looks like those are the kspec tinted tails am i right?

alright that sounds pretty darn good. i will be changing the whole body around, just wanted to know if there were any noticable dents, rust, etc.

seats will be changed to the leather ones i have in my tiburon when i change mine to the megan seats, so thats no biggy.

i will contact you via PM about this more..

as soon as i have more pics, ill act on this deal

consider me having dibs on this vehicle.

i would like my asking price...

i will take more pictures when i get the time to clean the interior and when its not raining.

just please keep in mind.... i am selling this car with the assumption that the person buying it will not mind investing money to get it back in 'tip-top' shape. thus the low asking price

here are pictures of things that i feel that should be pointed out

chips in the hood. also, i'm pretty sure that this hood isn't the original... it seems like its a sheet metal copy of the OEM.


the right front headlight was sealed back together with some sort of epoxy


when i bought the clear corners (from OP), they broke during shipping and one of the main things holding it in broke off. it still stays in fine, however


this seems to be from the accident. you can see it from the 2nd picture as well, the cross bar isn't that even.


you can see in the 2nd and 3rd pictures also a small shim/washer under one of the fender bolts. someone prolly didn't wanna spend the time gettin RD curves lined up and just did that as a quick fix. i dunno
