Can we stay on topic,PLEASE? :rant: :a:

This thread isn't a discussion about the merits of salvage-title cars.

It's a thread direct at the specific question about the price of a DB8 Integra and about the specific issues related to the DB8 Integra and its automatic transmission.

If you guys want to talk about side-topics, open up another thread in the appropriate forum. Don't drag a tech thread off-topic. I will issue warning points from this point on for those who fail to heed this warning.

I don't want to be a hard-ass, but sometimes I have no choice. :a:

Dave, I feel that I stayed on topic in terms of the price of a DB8 Integra. There is no real right or wrong price on anything. It's a matter of a willing seller and a willing buyer agreeing on a price that makes them both happy. I suppose one can just go by the Kelly Bluebook values here: www.kbb.com. Dealerships charge more because they offer more services and have greater responsibilities to their customers. Their overhead is also a lot higher. As I sold Hondas for six long months, I resent people accusing dealerships of overcharging their customers. Cars are always cheaper bought from private parties, but it's more of a hassle making appointments to look at the car and then arranging to have a mechanic look at it etc... And the car is still bought "as is". With a good dealership, you have a lot more recourse if the car has issues.

As to the merits of an automatic transmission integra, I would never own any auto tranny car.

You've made a perfectly valid point and kept the thread on topic. I have no problem with your contributions in this thread. Please don't take offense to my earlier..um.. outburst. h:

It's when incidental responses like "that guy's car had a salvage title because of xxx" that are an early warning of a derailed thread.

When people start running with a new topic that is a random tangent to the original topic, the thread usually wanders off in that direction. That's fine in The Basment, but in the car model forums like the Integra, it's not.

People use the search engine in this forum to get straight answers & advice to questions, so the responses have to stay on track and within sight of the original question.

That why the car model forums are more tightly moderated.

But you knew that already.

Carry on... :run:

butterfly16gsr: Please do not bump threads just to repost an advertisement.

I've moved your for sale thread to the Vehicle Classifieds forum. That forum is the designated place for advertisments.

If you'd like to add a link to that thread in your signature, that's fine.
This is the url: https://www.honda-acura.net/forums/s...d.php?t=231965

All we ask is that members do not spam the forums to boost ad traffic.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
