as ive said. its pricey, but if youre in the market for that car and the plus factor that its RHD real S15, the price means less… but if you cant afford it(like 99% of us on here) it begins to look like an insane price.

very true, I’m just saying for 27k I’ve seen registered r33,r32’s. It’s ill no doubt but i dont think I’d pay more than 20k for it.

From my understanding, S15s can not be ‘legally’ registered or insured in the US because they were never crash tested for this country. Thats steep for a car that your insurance company won’t cover if it gets wrecked…

just tellin you what I’ve found with similar mileage. it’s true I won’t own it or ever buy a car like that for that price. and whoever does buy it has an awsome car, just not my cup of tea I guess.

I gurantee its registed as a 240… because Jap vin’s cannot be registered here in the US without going thru a Importer that had the car crash tested, and the only exception to the rule is the car has to be older than 20 or 25 years I forget exactly, so soon R32’s will be legal ;D

agreed values only work if your car is a non-street legal car. so yes if you want to insure it as a show/demo/race vehicle it would work that way, drive it on the street, not so much.

1. s15 rear end looks the same of a Grand am.
2. anything in the s chassis is not rare. the only rare part is being imported over here
3. 6 speed trannys SUCK!. ever gear cut down to make room for another? weak.

Why would you ever post that in a honda forum? look at the first three replies… “what is RWD”

For a $30k project car, you better be getting something faster than that.
