hehe, i don't regret the purchase at all
it's a really great ride imo, much better than the lemon I used to drive :/

got it for 8500
Red milano 98 GS-R with 72000 miles on it
it just has a faded spoiler (now gone after waxing), a few dings and I think the remain of a bird shit on the paint... dunno if this will be removable... I didn't notice it when I bought it :/

the thing about vtec was that it was explained by people who didn't even own one :/ and the only friend I knew who own a VTEC engine (S2000) never drove other Honda. The S2000 VTEC was seriously a hard kick... you can really feel the car pulling after 6000 RPM, just like a turbo
