Well my search is over! After spending a long time looking for an 03 6spd, i have finally found what I wanted. I had looked at atleast a dozen ones untill I finally found one that wasn't beaten up and neglected. It is an aegean blue pearl with navi and I couldn't be happier. The real kicker is that it is a one owner california car with only 39k miles. The car was serviced regularly at the dealership and had the timing belt and water pump changed at 32k miles.
While it sounds good that the timing belt was done at 32k, it's not a mileage thing as much as a time thing. Acura says 105k miles OR 7 years. The rubber belt rots over time, ESPECIALLY when a car sits and sits like yours.
Time to check all the seals too as a car sitting as much as yours is more prone to leaks than one that has been run. The leaks will likely happen when you change fluids and the new fluid helps clean out the gunk that's built up and plugged the current deteriorated spots.
