man don't waste your time with an ae86....they suck. why the hell would you want a 15 year old car that has 128hp???? a fricking sohc si has more balls than a dohc 4age!!!
dude, you'd be better off buying some poplar from Home Depot...
128hp!?! I thought that was only in Japan. I thought it only had 113hp over here. And what is wrong with a AE86? Ever hear of a engine swap, turbos or N/A tune ups? Horse power isn't everything you know. What ever happened to the enjoyment of the ride? If the car sucks so bad then why is it that the price has not depreaciated much in Japan? I will admit there are better car out now a days but you must keep in mind that every body has a different budget.
I my self want a AE86. Mind you that Dodge Razor could turn out to be a nice car when it comes out. Any way with a AE86 I can invent in and put a few toys in while if I bought a new car I would not have the money to enhance the car. And saying it is a bad choice cuz it is an old car is stupid. If some one just handed you the keys to a 60's Shelby Cobra or some muscle car from the 70's you are telling me that you would say no cuz they are old? If so you are a strange one.
also, what's this about depreciation? that question seems to be assuming that you're looking at market values for these cars.. most of the time those kinds of guidelines don't apply..
just ask your self how much yo're willing to pay and how much it will cost to get that rust fixed..

92 civic hatch with b18c....one of the fastest cars ever!!!! just put a 3inch exhaust and a ractive CAI and it'll make bird poop out of a crappy-roku!! hahahaha...4age doesn't even have vtec!!! its all about toucan industries kid!!!!!!
hahaha.
whatever you do, don't buy a rusty 86...you'll regret it.
Hey GoodCookieDrift, considering it's the year 2002 a 1992 car is a pretty old car (10 years old is pretty old for a car).
PLus some people have appreciationfor the finer things in life, one of these things could be an old car. You never know, sometimes the car is worth more than money can buy? That doesn't necessarily mean that it's an expensive car, it could have allot of memories in it, or it might be of personal value.. So, don't be a shallow person. If you actually have a 1992 Civic, anyone could come and tell you the same about your car.. Remember what Goes around Come around..
Respect
