I've been looking for 6 months now and I can't even find one within 150 miles of me. I'm still holding out for that killer deal.

I was looking to sell mine, but I've determined it isn't worthy selling (yet). I'm having too much fun with it... Plus I can't seem to find a really good replacement (the RSX-S is close, but not the same).

You doing the college thing? I know a couple local colleges in Ohio that just abuse cars (either they are broken into all the time or towed). You might have a less stressful college experience if you get a car you don't have to worry about (although if your dad is paying, then you may not feel the same stress I did when I was making monthly payments).

wow i didn't know the GSR was so hard to get. Maybe it'll become rare and we'll all have collector items? heehee

GSR's arent rare, they are just OVER PRICED cuz of high demad in CA.

Or less than that... for a CLEAN `94 OBDI car with about the same mileage...

I agree with this! It took me so long to find a GSR in my price range with low mileage in california. The only advice I can offer you is to keep looking, you'll eventually find it. Unless you just really want a car, then go for a GS...

I agree, have patience and it will come. I found my GSR online with 150 miles on it and got it for 18000$. So the good deal will come around if you are just patient!!

If your not gonna get a GSR, then get a civic. IMO the civic ex is better than an ls teg. You can find one for less money, not messed with as much as tegs, and high resale value. They tend to run a little better also IMO. But, if you got your heart set on a teg, go for it. Good Luck!!!

yeah they are at a premium right now (even over here in the WashDC area).

I found mine on autotrader and jumped on it.. SSBP 15k with 25k miles and it was garaged during the day.

I feel you on that one. It's been six months, and I can't even find a decent LS, (94-95) let alone a GSR in the Pittsburgh, PA area. The problem is, I need a sedan, and obviously coupes are in greater abundance.

Be persistent! I was surprised when I was in the market for my car too. It's nearly impossible to find any (especially unmodified ones)..and when you do find them, they're already sold. I was lucky enough to call a guy right after he posted on http://www.autotrader.com. Sometimes the only way is to find one further away from you. I live in the Southern part of Maryland and I bought mine in Delaware. In my case, driving 400 miles round trip was worth it. In all, it took me three months of searching.

Look through all the classifieds available and look at online dealer inventory...make it a habit. Good luck!

Just be patient, dont get a non-VTEC integra, you will want a GSR VTEC really bad eventually, just take your time and look, or else you will regret it.
