    That's one thing I always told myself and my wife. I will never buy a car that has been "tuned" by someone already. Especially if it's to be a daily driver.

    Car looks decent enough, though. I assume you'll be getting those wheels back to looking decent as well? Hope it works out for you, man. Later, QD.
    FOR MORE INFO, CLICK THE PIC!!!

    I agree with you 100% I love stock vehicles for a daily driver, Nor will i buy a modified vehicle just becase I dont know its history, But this one is not really moded to where it cant be put back to factory condtion in a flash!

    x2, i like this one as it is, i personally would just get a different set of wheels and lower it, and it is still a good dd, if those are the wheels that came with a car stock it should be an ex, with a sunroof (which is a must for me), and 4 wheels disc. intake gets better mpg, HID better vision at night, now if it had engine work i would not have gotten it, the weak point of these cars are the auto trans, but this one is manual so that takes care of that, i can get these k24s for like $400-$600 with like 60-80K, so worst case engine goes out it's cheap to replace, i love these CMs, im going to get one when they come down in price for my range, just use the proper oil weight, the only thing i have heard about these k24 is sometimes the oil pump having issues, but you should be fine if you use the oe recommened oil weight and i think it's synthetic, even if it leaks or burns it, enjoy
