I'll buy your GSR for 6,000! But you could prolly get 12 - 15k for it.. so i dont think you should sell it to me!

Yeah I want to sell mine for atleast 14K. Its been faily moded but can be converted stock if needed. Let me know I am in a bind between doing a JDM front end conversion and Turbo VS buying a new car

I would barely call the RSX-S overrated or overpriced..a little spendy, yes. If you want to be one with the crowd and join the hype, buy a WRX.. I think an RSX Type-S would be a lot cooler.

I test drove the RSX and found it similar to my car in speed. Actually the RSX was a bit sluggish outside VTEC. My friend and I assumed it was cause the cars new with 64 miles on it and need to be broken into. Over its an Ok car. I think I may stick with the good old GS-R. Make the front JDM and turbo it.

Subaru dealers out in CA are consistently selling them between Invoice and MSRP. That puts it between 22502 and 24520. U should easily get it for 23XXX. Sample:
Purchase price 23500.
Trade In / Downpayment 14000.
APR - 7.9% (AVG, not good, not bad)
48 Month Term = 231.48 monthly payment.
Not bad at all!
NOTE: Not including tax and registration etc etc.

Did you ask if he had a lien holder on his current integra? What about his payoff, if any?

Ha ha he said cute. Yeah I like the break down on the payment. I do have 9K left on the GSR. But I have 6K in the bank. I don't think the monthly payments will be to bad
