ok, so im looking to buy an accord. i think i found one but im not sure if its too good to be true. this guy has a 97 4dr with an h22a1 swap. its lowered on steelies also. he says only 40000 miles on the swap. its a 5spd and he says the body is in great shape except for a dent in the rear bumper. i havent seen it yet but my friend has seen it and says that it looks stock(no euros or anything) besides a ricey paintjob(kawasaki green and black two tone, nothing a primer job cant fix.;)) but anyway, heres the thing, he only wants $1600 for it. sound too good to be a legit car? just want you guys opinion. im going to look at it soon..

Just make sure you know what to look for or take someone that does. You dont want to get jipped on what you think is a good deal. :)

go test it out before you buy.. if he said it works fine then hes a man of his word.. so you put out a few buck for gas and just test drive for a good number of blocks and see if theres anything wrong with it

take it to a shop and get them to look the car over.
