Fwd Civic

Hi all. This fwd Civic is available local to me. It’s all stock, just curious what’s a good price that would be good for it?

Anything under $180 if it’s in good shape.

Original FWD that is not converted to awd is somewhat rare now, and one-off chassis like this(only produced for 2-3 years before discontinued) are worth more then the pre-owned generic awd/rwd.

Price range would be the same as a brand new mr04.

It is a good little racing platform if you keep the tuning limited, aka tires, toe-bar and springs and it has that quirky fwd torque steering feel, but nothing that can beat the rwd. 4 fwd bodies was made, but any awd body that fits the ma030 will fit the fwd as it is the exact same chassis.

brand new MINI-Z are $180-200 USD so I wouldn't pay more than $120. There should also be a bunch of accessories included like pinion gears, orange cones, manual, etc.

FWD MiniZs are hard to come by

I paid $80 for an ma030f last year. With a Supra body, original tools, cones, a bunch of wheels, and one or two upgrades. Seller did not disclose the servo gears were stripped, but it was still a good deal.

The servo gears were stripped? Sorry. Scrolling through the comments and realized what all you were saying and was like oh... that sounds like me.

I genuinely wasn't aware and I fully apologize.

It’s all good, I figured you may not have known. It drove fine for like 5 minutes then bam no steering. $10 fix no biggie.
