I stated in the ad that the car is a DX shell (so there's nothing being hidden...it was the first thing stated in the ad)
I put EX because of the motor, moonroof, and power windows that are in it...I know a lot of people avoid DX's when searching for cars simply because it has less power along with less options. I put EX to attract the people that look at ads this way.
Also, compression testers seemingly vary depending on the brand, etc (i've seen a couple different numbers on the same motor with different compression testers...by different numbers I mean 20-30psi, unless this is something that doesn't occur very often?...just going by personal experience). I can assure that the motor runs/feels strong (as strong as a stock D can feel in a coupe).
I put prior salvage in the ad because that's what is on the title.
I consider anybody that does quite a bit of things to a car a mechanic. Example: I considered matt a mechanic 2+ years ago when he was doing quite a bit to cars...swapping out clutches, motors, axles, t-belts, etc. That's just my opinion on the word "mechanic." To me, a tech. is somebody who has had professional training, etc...therefore i would never consider myself a tech. In other words, I think fargostreet itself has quite a few "mechanics", but few actual techs.BTW, it's 16 second cars thank you very much

And just for you John (darkelvis): I became a mechanic (IMO obviously) when I bought a few cars that either A. didn't run, B. ran like ass, or C. ran good but had other problems and made them run well again...I'll prolly get flamed for thinking what I am, but whatever...not like that'd be anything new.
EDIT: checked dictionary.com for all of you who like doing that out there...an automotive mechanic is simply somebody who works on cars, whereas a technician may have some training...look it up to see for yourself...so, if one goes by the dictionary, it seems as though I did interpret the difference between a mechanic and technician correctly.
ya, but you didnt fix any of those cars that were broken whe you got them, either other people did, or you sold them still broken....

the ONLY reason torbert thinks he can sell his car for that much is because i jsut sold my dx civic for a couple grand and he believes his car was worth way more then mine so figures he can get that, thats all there is to it
