I'm new to the civic type r, any tips on what to look out for when buying second hand??

Thanks

At that price wouldn't you be better off getting a new one? Its a few thousands dollars more if i remember correctly. It may already have some mods on it but your paying a few thousand dollars more knowing your driving a new car with warranty and that it hasn't been flogged.
Wouldn't something like this be better?

I always get suspicious when quote "15,000" in mods.

It could have all been second hand stuff and only cost them few grand most.

I think that was a cool. Plus it is cheaper than I thought. You should get it before anyone else does.

Looks lyk its got quality parts in it, there wouldnt be many used fn2r parts layin around, evn if they are used as long as they do what theyre ment to do.
