not for 5g... that's about the best you can do... to be honest...i suggest you try to save up more money unless you come across a great deal ... but the integra would be a good choice if u can manage 5k for a nice low mileage teg

i always see gsr's around here for sale for like 5500, i dont know what part of the country you live in but i'd suggest looking around very thoroughly first before deciding on a car, you might miss out on a gem

beware in Southern Calif.
My just bought my son 95 3-door teg and we felt it was aliright. We couldn't find many in range, but came across one with 160,000 that appeared to be alright. $3500.00 dollors later his car is in good shape.
We spent $4100.00 initially on the car and had to replace almost
everything with the exception of the interior. The one good thing is that
the car will have a new engine and suspension and will be the way we want
it. I guess it's a trade off. Maybe you should find a good teg with a sour
motor and simply save the money up front and get the engine you want.
Good luck!

A year ago, there were three $2500 gsr coupes in my area. I bagged my gsr sedan with 195K miles for $2500. Saw an ad for a $3500 gsr sedan about a month ago. I wouldn't be afraid of a high mileage car. What you want is the previous owner to have been a mature adult and putting only highway miles on it. Lower city miles can be a killer on the suspension. And I would be leery of buying a car from someone in their early twenties.

good advise
Buying a car from an older more mature driver and one with mainly
highway miles is great advise. Not many like that on the west coast.
Have learned alot about Integra's these last few months! Looking
forward to installing new motor and suspension.
