Hi guys, I just purchased a Em1 VTI-R from sydney with 75K full service, it has no mods at all, The only down side is it has some damaged clear coat due to some un washed off bird sh*t, I think i will treat it to a full respray (any recomendation?). I look forward to learning more about this modle.
My Previous cars include a 12 second wrx and a 5.7ltr statesman.

Only carsales pic for now

I have always wanted a civic coupe since it came out, I had to buy a cheap daily to drive to work and did not want the run of the mill corrolla.

selling so soon?

starkey, my mates went and had a look at this car when it was for sale at first. they got all the details to do REVS CHECK properly on the RTA website but there was no history on this car. They tried numerous times and still nothing came up. Hence, thats probably why the guy was selling it for like $10,500. Unless at the time, RTA had issues with their website. Anyways, if you decide to sell... Good luck with sale mate.

yep same thing happend to me, so a visit to the RTA and all sorted no problems. Turned out to be a revs problem not RTA. I hope to avoid selling but we will see.

yeah I really dont want to but coming from the statesman and wrx we really need a 4 door, I kinder bought it because i have always wanted one. Its still in the back of my mind to keep and respray it.
