General
This car runs and drives great. The interior is in good overall condition yet has some minor flaws expected from a 20 year old SHO. The paint is not the greatest and there are minor dings, scratches and so on. If you are not mechanically inclined and SHO educated, this car is not for you. If you are expecting a Lexus ride, Prius MPG and Honda reliability, this car is not for you. It's a 500hp SHO done right and it's completely absurd. It is however very drivable and in great condition for what it is.

PICS!!

TTT!

I can vouch for how clean this car is, how complete all the mods are, and how well it was taken care of. Buyer would have zero regrets.

GLWS Nick!
