New 29K FD in Town! (Portland)

The guys name is Vince Huynh, he just got himself a 29K mileage FD. It's an auto, but he plans to swap to manual. John's shop was detailing his car Monday while I was working on mine. Try not to drool too much.

Give the guy some love.

Peace

Yeah lol. Unless the seller was just not very bright....

What is up with the interior?? Looks like someone did a partial swap or somthing. Also looks like a passenger side airbag which weren't in the 93's. I have tan interior and mine doesn't have all the black like that.

I have seen a 93 VR tan manual with 49,000 miles sell for $10,000, I tried to buy it but it wasn't boosting at all, I was certain it was just a vac leak because everything else seemed mint but I wanted to get it looked at by someone else and run a compression test, and they sold it before I was able to. I don't find 10,000 for an auto with 29K impossible to believe because the turbos or motor could have been bad or going on it. If its on the original motor you would have to buy it expecting the motor could go sometime. I would probably pay close to 10K for a 29K mint roller sans motor and transmission as long as everything else was included and in perfect condition so it sounds like a great deal at any rate.

No not impossible by any means, I just couldn't imagine letting mine for anything near that.....of course I have put waaay too much money into my car as it is lol. Also, yes I agree a low mileage FD is not as much of a good thing as it is on other cars and that could contribute to the low price I guess.

When I was first looking for a FD, I looked at a couple with less than 20k miles on them. The one I should have bought was a CYM with less than 10k.....but the guy was asking a bit high. I understand why though.

CJ- still dreaming of owning a CYM.
