I have an '03 that I got about a year ago and I haven't been disapointed at all. There are a few things on it that couldn't hurt to be upgraded depending on what you're main purpose is though. The only thing that gets me is mine is a year older and I payed more, and I also noticed in a picture it had green calipers? This could mean that they were just itching to modd it so I would go check it out peronally if you can and look specifically around places that could have been modded at one point. ex. the intake, if you can see it the exhuast and the coil cover and head area and look for things like diferent screws and rounded heads meaning it was worked on. Not to say that they did but it is always a possibility. Other than that I would say you have an excellent car on your hands.

I say go for whatever makes you happy. if you think its a good deal then go through with it. All I'm gonna do is help you.
I got mine for 18 flat and look at mine compared to yours..


Thats from an Acura dealership. You can do better in my opinion but thats just my opinion man.Remember its all about you. If you like it go for it bud
its a great car none the less

thank you everyone for the posts, i really appriciate it. my dad said we can go on the 16th of may, i am off that day cuz of senior project presentations. anyway, we went to the place today, and we got the guy to lower the price to 17 . a woman traded it in for a civic si (he showed me the transaction papers) (maybe for her son, idk), however i did do a good examination of the engine and all that like you told me to. it is clean as hell, wasnt messed with at all. interior is amazing, the car is practically in s/r condition. the dealer tried tellin me that the lime green calipers were stock, haha gooood one. i just went along with it, cuz u kno my dad was there, and i want the car, and i know i can get rid of it. probably a little ricer boy had it. but, i am definatley gettin the car. pics will be up


THANKS ALOT! KEEP POSTING!
