Skeptical about buying this 2000 integra ls

[Alfredg94]

You can't tell if a car that's $1700 shipped is a scam or not?

Customs fees and shipping alone would come out to at least 2-3k.

Nevermind the fact that the car would probably be beat to shit.

Not all the cars are that cheap alot of them are 6k plus the 12-15 hundred to ship. There's credible sources on the net that say it legit. But I'm not taking the chance hence the reason I told someone else to do it...jokingly... sarcastically.

Haha owning a mustang wasn't actually my choice believe it or not. I'm not a big muscle car guy, but beggars cant be choosers at that point

A V6 Mustang isn't a muscle car.

:rolf:

To be fair though, the GNX is considered a classic muscle car, so if you made a v6 look good and put a turbo on it (plus any other necessary mods) it could be a muscle car in a sense.

Technically it would be a tuner, but you could consider it a throwback to something like the gnx.

The 01-04 v6's are actually a lot faster than you'd think they are. can't speak for the 99-00's and the 94-98's are slow as hell :lol: but the re-balanced crank and new intake they made for the 3.8l like is in the 01-04 was a pretty good upgrade.

No the 01-04 v6's are slow as hell just like the rest of them.

The GNX was turbo from the factory, all of them. The v6 Mustang is what Dad buys his little girl when she turns 15. Putting a turbo on it would be like putting a turbo on a girl's Mustang, not like a Grand National.

I was gonna say something, but thanks to this guy I don't need to. :mrgreen:

Inb4 the rage reply in 3 weeks.

 

[Stopsign32v]

I'm assuming from the replies this is a case closed at this point.

 

[R13]

Yeah pretty much :lol:




But for the record, I've driven several 94-98 v6s, owned an '01, driven a couple of bullitt's, GT's, a mach1, a vortech supercharged mach1, and an '89 thunderbird SC which had a factory supercharged 3.8 v6 like the mustang's... that little 3.8 has more potential than you think, and the 01-04 is definitely faster than the old ones that could barely handle a dead stop start on a slight hill :lol:

Anything has potential with money. Doesn't make the old 3.8L Mustangs anything they weren't, which is a beat around town car or a good first car for someone that wants a Mustang but can't handle a V8.

I've driven a Mach 1 too, here's mine.

Right but you were arguing that a v6 mustang could never be like a gnx when in fact you could put a pretty simple turbo setup on it and probably have something a little faster than a stock gnx without even messing with the internals, that was what we were talking about.

That's all I'm getting at is the simple idea that the 01-04 v6s aren't completely useless turds like so many people seem to think just before they chop the exhaust off and rice the hell out of them. :lol:

That is very much so a fact that a V6 Mustang can never (and I would like to stress never) be like a GN let alone a GNX.

I was never talking about the potential of a V6 Mustang. I was stating how a V6 Mustang regardless of performance or power would never be a muscle car. You decided to throw in the GNX as some type of leveling field in your mind.

A GN was a 1980's marvel that out ran the best of the Mustangs, Camaros, and even Corvettes of the day. The T-type/GN was a one off example that demanded respect of the days and still has it today from people in the domestic performance world that have any type of respect and a brain.

Comparing that to a 01-04 Mustang V6 is nothing short of comical and insulting all at once.

Alright then.

All of those other cars were slow as dicks though. :mrgreen:

Everything in the 80's was slow. Except the hair :shock:
