Looking at a 1991 Acura Integra LS

Found a lovely looking 1991 Acura Integra LS.
156,000 miles, 5 speed, very well kept up.

$2500

Opinions?

It's about damn time you started looking at Hondas!

It's great and all, but check blue book.

Sounds alright to me. 2500 isn't bad at all, especially if it was well kept up despite it's miles...

But even so Honda engines last double that if they're maintained.

Blue book shows $2500 for excellent condition, $2160 for good. I was thinking of offering sort of between that... $2250-ish

My dad absolutely hates the wheels on it (black 5 spoke), so I may be able to get some new wheels from my parents

At least you'll be able to buy a car, looks like I'll get the torn-up '93 Integra LS with the dent in the rear fender.

Looks like it'll be needing a K&N air filter.

I also plan on grabbing some larger Brembo brakes...

Nice, I like the rims. K&N filter = worthy I duno what the point of spending heaps on brembo brakes is though... They can be seriously costly.

About $250 for all 4 corners. Not bad.

But I think I'll put that money elsewhere, probably a new stereo.

The tires don't look too new, but they have some left on them, but I may slap on some Pirelli's...

Order for upgrades and stuff will probably go:

1. K&N air filter. This is a must.
2. New stereo. Also a must. $500 most likely for what I want. Not bad, just will take a while to get that money.
3. New Brembo brakes and MAYBE Koni or Bilstein suspension.
4. Pirelli PZero tires.
