already modded! It has almost all of the same mods as my 98 has. It's a 92 SE, auto(i know i know), stillen kit, 16" Konigs, intake, WS y-pipe, Magnaflow muffler, CF dash, shaved rear door handles, smoked clear corners, and a few other small things. It has some very minor damage on it, but still looks great. I just couldn't pass up on the deal.

I'm gonna drive it to the meets. The last couple meets I haven't had any new mods, so you all know what it looks like. Now I can alternate them.

I can relate to that. I saw my old 92 after I traded it in and wanted it back.

how does it run?

figure a jdm VE swap ~2000 with any little bs it may need, and you still come out with a good running, low mileage, modded 92se for a little under 3000 total - not bad

oh and im not all that jealous...because of the color

you'd be surprised on how well it runs. it seems pretty solid concidering it's age. I bought it as my daily car. If I had $2k to spend, it would be on the 98! That one is still my baby.

it actually is extensive damage...it's just not very noticeable. It looks like the frame may be slightly bent. Teh door jam and trunk gaps are a bit off, but I don't care. It's barely noticeable as you can tell.
