$4,500 2006 Honda Civic Si for sale locally

[PedalFaster]

I was cruising Kijiji and came across this low-mileage 2006 Civic Si for $4,500. It looks really clean in the photo, but there's just the one. If it is in good shape, someone should scoop it up -- consensus is that that generation Civic is still competitive in HS.

The ad lists an automatic transmission, but as far as I'm aware that year Si was only available with a manual.

I have no affiliation with the seller at all -- just want to see the car go to an autocrosser if it's as good a deal as it appears to be.

Found this today, good price for a fun car.

That might be a good option if you're mechanically inclined and looking for a platform to mod, but otherwise, I'd avoid it, as it appears to have been put together with an emphasis on doing it cheap versus doing it right.

It's got a front bumper and grille from a lower-spec Focus, and it's missing the bottom half of the rear bumper -- notice that the rear crash structure and muffler are completely exposed. (Plus if a deer landed on the hood, why did the rear bumper need to be repaired?) The wheels are from a lower trim level too, and some induction hosing and the vanity cover are missing from the engine bay (compare the front of the airbox to this pic).
