Funny but ur joking right? My one previa is great the other is all messed up. It was a oil leak and the oil filter is now stouck on it. I was trying to remove it and i riped it in half and now i cant seem to get a good enough grip on it to take it off. Im trying to give it to my GF borther for free as a good jesture. But if he does not take it today i am selling to to the junk yard for $275 cash

There is none near u for sale. I bought my good one for $1100 cash and its in 8 out of 10 shape. The AC does not work and the front passenger now does not seem to want to open. Great cars that are underlooked mine has 232k miles. The one i want to get rid of has 189k miles. I would say you could have the 189k one for cheap but its in bad shape. And ur better off geting one close to you

i have a axle back exhaust I could sell you lol

I'd say go for springs. If you don't get wide/low offset wheels in the future you won't rub and it's a world of difference in how the car looks and handles.

those honda fit springs look pretty sketch, If you're gonna invest in springs, i recommend the eibach sportlines. they sit very nicely.
