Is this GSR worth buying ? expert opinion needed

99 GS-R, Black, 39,000 kms, factory 15" rims, Michelin Pilot 205/50/15 Tires, lowered 3/4", DC Sports rear upper strut bar, DC Sports rear lower strut bar (painted black), JRSC 6 psi, DC Sports 4-2-1 headers, Type R cat back exhaust, Cartech 20005 fmu, JR Map Controller, J&S Ultra Safeguard v.2, B&M Filter Top Fuel Pressure Gauge. Air, pw, pdl, power moon roof.

This car is like brand new. Not one ding or scratch. The wheel rims have never touched a curb. This car has never been smoked in and I am the original owner. I am a 44 year old business man. Car was purchased in May of '99 at Burrard Acura. I had the blower installed July 2000 by Raymond who runs ImportClassifieds. Raymond is the best. This car will do 13.7 in the 1/4 and should dyno about 215 hp at the wheels. The ultimate sleeper and it runs perfect with no pinging. Gas mileage is close to stock.

My friend is considering selling his accord to buy this gsr @ about $17000 USD. What do you all think ??? Of course, the feature is the charger, Now, he is saying that this car can smoke pretty much most car on the street, like S2k. Is it true ? How does this car stand against car like CL-S 6 speed ? or M3 even ?? Any opinion ?

Thanx

yah..cool car to have if u do not mind the new integra has hit the street and it has 2.0 Liter engine with 200HP..but since your integra has tons of mod...and that B18c VTEC has stock 170 HP and got boost by 215HP..that is cool by the way..but 17000 is still negotiable?? E36 M3 (1995 3.0 Liter) will still cost your friend around 25000 ~35000 (1996~1999 3.2 Liter)..so...and cls has 260 HP and 6 speed manual and it is a V6...that is pretty strong and not too many cars can beat it..even the auto cls is pretty fast enough.....

if it runs 13.7's it will basically eat most any cl-s, tl-s or E36 M3. it is still an integra. sounds like a pretty cool 1 though.
