I bought this Acura Integra GS-R about two weeks after the EBP 2000 Si. I could not pass up a rust-free GS-R in white and low mileage! It was a one owner owned by a business man who could no longer drive due to his knee problem. It was sold to me by a reseller who wanted to make a quick profit. All he did was put a battery in it. And he couldn't even do that properly! He was asking me what am I going to do to it. I said going to clean it up back to former glory. I was actually really close to leaving the car after a 12-hour road trip from Chicago, IL to Athens, GA because it looked like it needed so much work and I just bought a Si. But the car drove so well. And the potential was all there and it was everything in my capabilities. Anyways that just helped me to get the price lower and pay for the trip! I restored it to mint shape, and put on some modifications from a Type-R. All OEM dealer parts. It ended up totaling close to $4,000 in the end but I still made a very nice profit in the end selling it on eBay because the car was just so RARE! There isn't a rust-free, super original and clean, low miles, white GS-R anywhere for sale. That means you could dictate the price and people really appreciate the work! I did not want to sell this car by any means! I just had too many cars and it's time I move on. And my recent purchase of Supra did not help that either. It was a hell of a transformation and this car was a pure joy to drive. The clutch, gears, suspension, exhaust were all amazing. I would love to keep it forever but I don't have the space to do so at my age. Luckily the new owner is from Georgia, where the car came from, and has the same passion for these cars! I hope he treats her well because I will never forget it! Here's the story..
