Stock Shock: 1989 Nissan Silvia S13

Yesterday I mentioned that fact that you don't see many Honda CRXs for sale that aren't totally trashed, thrashed, or flashed -- but there is another car that is even harder to find in stock non-lord_humongous trim...yup, the Nissan S13 Silva.  Customizers, flatbrimmers, stancers, racers, drifters, and the like have just about run the stock S13 into extinction, so finding a stock one is like finding 4-leafed horsefeather.  Find this 1989 Nissan Silvia S13 offered for $9,500 in Corpus Christi, TX via craigslist.

Rare Survivor: 1987 Honda CRX

On the top of my list of cars that we almost never find in un-modified and original trim is Honda's fabulous CRX sports coupe.  The Honda CRX was an interesting two-seat front-drive economy sports car that really shook up the market when it was introduced in 1983.  There were few other cars on the road that could be optioned to get 40mpg city/50mpg highway (in the CRX HF) or provide an exhilarating driving experience (CRX Si). Find this 1987 Honda CRX here on eBay bidding for $4,050 with a few hours to go, located in La Mirada, CA.

No Swap: 1988 Pontiac Fiero GT

General Motors finally fitted the mid engine Fiero with a proper suspension for the 1988 model year and then promptly discontinued the car.  The 1988 cars are the rarest and most desirable Fiero's to own.  These cars are definitely on the DT list of most commonly featured engine swaps.  Today's car prompts a tough question to answer: is it wiser a to leave a stock 1988 car alone or throw caution to the wind and pick a favorite GM fwd engine to swap in??  Will a nice 1988 Fiero GT ever appreciate in the future?  Find this 1988 Pontiac Fiero GT for sale in Branford, CT for $7,500 via craigslist.

100% stock- 2000 Honda Civic Si

The EM1 sixth generation Honda Civic Si is considered one of the best Civic Si models ever made.  The Si coupe had light weight, nimble handling, good gas mileage, and came with a very high revving four cylinder engine.  The JDM tuning scene featured in the 2001 movie The Fast and the Furious was in high gear by this time period.  It is near impossible to find any year Civic Si without any modifications.  Find this 2000 Honda Civic Si for sale in Hamden, CT for $5,000 via craigslist.

All Stock: 2002 Subaru Impreza WRX Wagon


Subaru already had a huge following in the USA when they released the WRX (World Rally eXperimental) version of their popular GD Impreza sedan in 2001.  It was the first time that Subaru offered a car for the US market that was legitimately quick (sorry SVX owners, that thing was a dog), albeit slower than the Japanese STI versions.  Find this 2002 Subaru Impreza WRX Wagon offered for $6,500 in Austin, TX via NASIOC forum classifieds.

Original Owner, All Stock: 2004 Subaru Impreza WRX STI

Subaru must have done a terrible job designing their rally car for the street, because it seems that every Impreza WRX STI offered for sale has a list of bolt-on aftermarket parts that reads like a SEMA phone directory. However, you probably don't want a highly monsterfied Subaru (for various reasons), and today we've got an all original, all stock, original owner STI for sale.  Find this 2004 Subaru Impreza WRX STI offered for $19,500 in Mountain View, CA via NASIOC forums.
