Hi,
I always loved the 6th gen accord coupe. I had (well still have) a black 2002 EX-L 4cyl manual (I'm the only owner) and a dark purple 1998 LX 4cyl manual that I bought used while I was modifying my 2002.

However, about 15-20 years ago, at the last few years of my last of university, I got into financial issue and couldn't afford to do anything else on my car. So my 2002 was stored in my backyard until I could revive the project. The 1998 was my daily until I got into an accident. The insuranced totaled the 1998 because of the value, but I bought it back for a small fee so I can use some component from it. The 1998 got stored in my backyard since then.

I live in the Montreal, Canada area, so now both of my car would need substantial body repair just to make it a good base to modify. My financial are now much much better and I want to revive my love for the 6th gen.

So, I'm starting to look to buy a 6th gen coupe that is perfectly 0 rust, I don't mind the paint as I will paint it the way I want and for the engine, I will want a turbo V6 manual, so I know I will need modification either to the engine mount if I get a 4cyl manual body or the clutch pedal if it's a v6 body.

I'm ready to be patient and I know I might need to import one from the USA or other province in Canada, but I'm ready to use freight transport for the right car.

Thank you

Welcome back, since you want to do a turbo V6, i would suggest to buy a V6 coupe, and they do pop up here and there, they will be easy to do manual swap and turbo. 4 cyl manual are hard to come by, ask me about it. took me almost 10 years to find with low millage and no rust.
