^ agreed... and to find out exactly what model it is (assuming no engine swap was done) i'd suggest looking down onto the engine and see what is welded/stamped on the top of the tranny... it will let u know exactly what engine it is and hence tell u the car...

make sure that the 180k maitenance was done... something like "timing belt'' that wasn't done can fuck u over a week after you buy it... get reciepts for the maitenance, and if he did it himself... ask him what he did and how he did it... if he can't explain in full, walk away... either way good find... not a fan of the g1/2's but for 900 u can't really complain

there is a article on team-integra.net for decoding the VIN on g3 and g2 tegs to find out exactly how it came from factory. year, chassis code, model, auto/5speed and some more

Here is a basic guide to Integra models, just in case you haven't found out yet:
No sunroof= RS model
Sunroof, but no leather=LS model
Sunroof with leather= GS model

A rare GSR for 92-93 wil have a sunroof and redline at 8000 rpm or above, check the tach.

Thanks for the help guys but i ended up not buying it. The car was a turd..engine bay looked like it had been caught on fire, bend lower control arm..and a list of other things..just too much for me to handle..so I ended up buying a 1992 Nissan Maxima

I've owned an 86 Maxima, they are nice cars. I bought it for 900 bucks and the only thing it needs are new axles because at 130k the cv boots on maximas start to go....other than that the car is in prestine condition..i'm making out like a bandit
