Found a used Civic Si out there, been in contact with someone at the dealership about it, its a couple hundred miles away from me but it's the color I want, price range, and year range. If anyone can let me know and I'll send you the info of where it's at and if you know if that used car dealership is good peoples.

In reply to DirtyBird222: Strongly suggest you have the seller put it in writing that it's not a storm damaged / flood car.

A lot of people outside NJ don't realize how many thousands of cars were damaged by hurricane Sandy.

I work in Rahway. Let me know where it is, and if its close enough that I could do it over lunch, it shouldnt be a problem. As Chet said though, TONS of cars went underwater here and have flood damage, so I would be VERY careful about buying a car in this area. We have trucks at my work that were completely submerged. I've been in the market for a truck, and have steered clear of the entire state of NJ.

Rahway, huh? I grew up in Clark, right next door. My dad was a chemist at Merck.

Escaped from there 33 years ago and never looked back.

Thanks man!

I could always use more parts money myself. I'm looking for good used Alfa springs to cut down at the moment, as I can't justify buying new springs.

It's the FA2 and yes I realize that it could possibly be a storm car which is why I'm asking if someone could at least check it out for me before I make a 200 mile trek. I'm really looking for a white FA2 or 5 or the 09+ Gray color.
