CRX SIR price survey

**buneyha** · 20-08-2005 04:27 AM

ok every crx/civic owner should roughly know the spec of a CRX SIR
I wanted to make this a poll but I don't know howto,
but anyway I'm not trying to sell anything here
I just want to know roughly how much I should be spending on this car.

CRX SIR how much would you pay if you had 7 to 10 grand to spare.
Please tell me come pros and cons with if it you can.
and no rediculas price like 1k

hopefully this would be me to get one next month,
thanks guys in advance.

what are you asking?
are you asking to buy the car ?
or buying mods for the car ?

Well u can get them over in japan for like 2-3k @ auctions.

So bringing it over here will be prob all up around 4-5k.

So dont go over that. or 6k @ max.

The going rate seems to be around 10k. The 15yo rule is finished but some are still being brought in (they were purchased in japan before the law changed). Just be aware most of the 10k ones are in pretty average condition. The last few will dry up soon tho and then I'd expect the price to go up over the next 12months as there aren't anymore available. And as for 6k? Yer right! Whoever's going to import it for you isn't going to do it for free and there's compliance too mate, and you can't import them anymore anyway.

I personally saw an immaculate EF7 (with 70,000kms) go for just under 9K a year or so ago from one of the local importers. So I would guess around 10K-ish would be fair for a *good* EF8.

And isn't the 15yo rule a 30yo rule now?

You can only import 1989 or older models using the "15 rule system"

a few SIR's were made late in 89 but gl finding them.
