Here is my dilemma.. i love this fricken car.. and i don't want to get rid of it, but back when we had that last snow/ice storm, i slid off the road into a bunch of rocks and set off the airbags. As soon as i cut the airbags away, I was back on the road driving on my way, and have yet to put a single penny into repairs! The radiator, oil pan, alignment.. and all other vital components of the car went unscathed.. and i have not had 1 single problem with the car since the incident (and its been months now). I should also note that this is my one and only car, and needless to say, daily driver. If there was no such thing as safety inspection.. I would keep driving it until the engine blew or it was involved in another, more serious accident. I don't care to repair the car, as airbags (along with sensors and module) would cost a very big percentage of the total value.
In a perfect world, my goal would be to sell the power/drivetrain for a few hundred, then find somebody looking for a track/race-shell, and get a few more hundred, then hopefully find another EK hatch. Could also work out trades if anybody has a fair deal. Let me also say.. this car has NOT butchered or has ever had any performance mods done. Never raced it either (I have more self respect than these fools bringing stock-engine civics to old dominion or whatever tracks yall go to). Clean carfax too. I have until November to renew the inspection, so I'm not in a hurry and am just testing waters (unless anyone has a good offer/advice). Current pics can be made available, but please provide an email, and I encourage test drives.. because I am that confident the car drives flawlessly. I would appreciate advice just as much as offers. Thanks a lot
