@Antoine Cunningham yep. Had it for about a year. Had to sell it cuz the motor, like all used manuals, was beaten to death. But while I had it and it ran......pure driving bliss. The shifter was God Mode. Bent valve popped up so I sold it while the resale value was good, got more than I paid for it lol. Ended up getting an auto trans 09 scion TC which I'm still driving now. Great dependable car. When I buy my next manual tranny it will be BRAND NEW from the Honda dealership......if they still make them. Toyota auto tran engines run for a long long time as well, might be awhile before I need to sell.
@@djpollo2474 Sold it to a guy who overpaid for it. Got myself a Scion TC 09 auto trans💛. Had to stop buying used Honda and Manual manuals (always problems from bad owners), only way I'll do it in the future in brand new, so maybe a Crosstrek manual or check out the Honda or Mazda selections. Toyota makes a couple stick cars as well but I've always associated Toyota with smooth auto transmissions that last forever. Its the reason why I got the Scion, which is made by Toyota. Just start it and go. It will run for another 10 years if I never find interest in replacing it. No problems whatsoever after 3 years of ownership. Nice stock audio system too. Another thing is that where I live near the Chicago area they are stealing cars left and right in all types of areas to do crimes in or sell off for parts and catalytic converters. My Scion looks sharp to ME, but the real world ignores it lol. I like that.
Depends how much there selling it for. It shouldn’t be expensive, they really devalue these hatches cuz of the k20a3 pretty much the D series of the k20’s lol And as far as gas, I fill up with less on my 7th gen si over my 8th gen si. Mainly because k20a3 will run perfectly fine on reg unleaded, and the k20z3 only takes premium. There’s no sense in putting premium of the ep3 if it’s made for regular imo 🤷🏽♂️
I bought this one with 154k miles... so roughly 250k km. 150k km is nothing on this motor. I've put 50k on it since I got it and it's been dead reliable
ep3 does not run more than 80...at 80 the speed drops
got a chance to get one for $2500 with just 100k on it. hope I can get it. always wanted one of these sweet things. nice vid!
busywl69 thanks... it’s a fun little car at times

Do you think is a good decision to buy with 150k km to be my first car??? Do you think that the gas consume is decent per week???

you chew on your steering wheel?
i like you do not go close behind people at lights in tx, I do the same.
is it loud around 100kmh? 80mph (closed windows)
phantom yes fairly loud since at 80mph I am at 4000rpm
Neat little video but I hope you don't coast in neutral nowadays
Stock exhaust?????
Fire Blade890 no it has a custom exhaust
fred london thank you I bought one 3 weeks ago. 1.6 engine. 2003 plate and automatic. Very smooth and good power and strong brakes.
Your car sond nice man what kid of exaust?
Oh shit that's in Irving
Andrew Flores-Ingle yeeee
I hate the construction by 183. I passthrough there a lot in my type-s
i own an ep3 and they're really slow ;/
Next time yup that's my only complaint about the car
I use it as my daily and park my 8th gen si 🤙🏽🤙🏽
I own one, I don't think it is slow at all.
