1992 Honda Civic VX Type R inspired build - Turnkey reliable, Ice cold AC, Hot heater, power windows and mirrors, stereo with Bluetooth hands free, remote start alarm.
By far the cleanest EG civic hatch back you will find.
I bought this car out of ‘90's nostalgia’ to use on weekends and occasional track days etc. However being a 40 something professional with kids and busy career, I simply don’t have the time for it. I’d like to pass it on to another nostalgic 80s/90s Japanese car enthusiast to enjoy. This is not a backyard build by a part time mechanic. No expenses spared on the build and the details show for themselves. Only tasteful mods true to the direction of the build and no nonsense stickers and such. I always wanted to get back into an EG hatch that I drove in the 90swhile in college, but I simply don't have the time to enjoy it. I can keep in the garage and enjoy occasionally but I really do think this car needs to be driven more regularly by an appreciative enthusiast.

Full Disclosure:
This Vehicle has a clean WA title w/ no remarks/comments or history. However,Carfax shows a 'junk' title due to theft that occured during previous owner's ownership. This occured before the whole restoration/rebuild process began. There are no frame damage or accident history associated with this car. I am currently working with Carfax to try to clear this record but not sure how long it will take.
Washington state title office does not show any accident or insurance claims against this car.
