THISSSSSSS
is a 2017 Sonic Grey Pearl Sport Hatchback with 44k miles. I'd consider her medium level as far as mods go - tuned, some bolt-ons, suspension, appearance stuff, radio, ect.
As many of you know, I have two Civics and I'm getting the itch for something new. I love the 10th gen platform and have leaned in to the max with my White hatch. This one has been my daily commuter while I went nuts with the other one.
I actually purchased from another CivicX member this year. He had taken great care of it and done a bunch of tasteful mods. In my 6 months of ownership I've put about 10k miles on her, few oil changes and an alignment/coilover adjustment and added some more parts. A full build list is below.
So I'm in no rush to sell; actually just flirting with the idea and seeing if there's interest... the thing is, I could trade in or sell to a car buying site like Carvana but then I won't be passing it on to an enthusiast who appreciates all the mods.
So what am I looking to get? I searched Autotrader for 17-19s with similar mileage, I got a few offers from sites and from a dealer. I looked at other cars here, some outrageously priced, some cheaper than mine... drum roll...
I'm asking 23k, but, let me know what you're thinking and maybe we can make a deal... I love negotiating! Also, I'm realistic - I know I'll never recoup most of the money on mods but considering the cars mileage and overall condition plus all the work, I think this is a fair asking price.
Last thing: The only real issue is that the rear coil overs/giant 26mm sway bar give some audible clunking on bumps. I've had it checked several times and there's nothing broken or malfunctioning; it just is what it is with this platform and those specific mods.
