    NightmareCB7 : 1990 Accord LX (2)

    Back story
    Just scooped this JDM sedan for just $500. It has been in the sellers family since new and originally came from Washington. She didnt want to sell it. Her mechanic told her it had a blown HG. So I went to look at it (was going to buy it for the body anyway) and as soon as I started it I knew there was NOTHING wrong with the engine, just high miles (243XXX). It runs/drives great, dont smoke or drink fluids and no CEL. I think her mechanic is a crook. This car is in really good shape. Its 99% rust free, well maintained, new tires, fresh alinement, aftermarket CD player and speakers just installed months ago.

    How it looks right now.

    That's pretty good for the price. Any future performance mod? Keep up the good work, she got potential.

                Heres a few older pics of it. It looks the same but has the shark teeth in it now.
