Would you

trade a bone stock 97 CL (5speed) with 132k for a 94 Accord wagon (5speed) that has a new paintjob,audio shit, lowered, color matched wheels (that would be sold instantaneously)

compare this to, well, you've seen my car. The paint isn't so hot and i've got a nice crease down the passenger's side door. along with a scratched up windshield and rusting rear passenger QP.

I'm testing the waters here and want opinions from my fellow CLers.

i like the CL more, honestly. the body lines make it suitable for a young male, as where the wagon seems like a car for an older woman.

but i guess you can get some in the back of the wagon...

i would usually say not to buy a modded car. but aslong as everything was done right, it seems like a good deal to me.
i wagons
but as dicorp said, the color is not the greatest
and it is older than your car
...but i'd still take it

think of it this way. the wagon has a lot more room to be a love machine then the CL with the back seats out.

I love wagons, but I never liked the body style of the Accord wagon. It just never grew on me. And I don't like green cars at all. But that's my opinion.

So no one asked yet, is this a straight up trade? The way it's worded, sounds like you're saying trade one for the other, or would you be selling and buying?

He wants a straight up trade, but I said maybe, under the condition that he gave me 1k on top of the trade.

But he can't.

It's a no go. But thanks for everybody's input. I don't think i'll look twice if I come across another one unless its MINT and extremely cheap, in that case i'd just buy it haha.

the 1k on top of trade was my first suggestion (including mods on my car)
