doogle seems like you have gotten yourself a good car...
no matter what maintenance has been done or left out, when buying a car, I would recommend doing couple things just for piece of mind...
-Engine oil change
-Transmission fluid change (I know a lot of 6MT owners use the GM Synchromesh fluid or some like that, look into that)
-PS flush (Honda fluid is just fine)
-check brakes and bleed them (I use ATE Super Blue....i used to use Valvoline dot 3 and 4 and it worked just fine
)
-drain radiator and fill in some new coolant (honda OEM)
also check the motor mounts, they seem to go out on our cars
run some fuel system cleaner (i actually run seafoam...again am not sure if it does anything or not and a lot of people swear by it, but when I opened my heads at 160K, they were crystal clean)....so run some seafoam in the gas tank, vac line, oil case (before you do an oil change)
pull a plug and see if they need replacing

Thanks I'm pretty excited about it. I had a 2000 Accord V6 that I replaced all the motor and transmissions mounts in a couple of times. This will be my first Honda V6 with a manual transmission though. I'm going to check the mounts and compliance bushings first thing as I hear those usually problematic. I will also check all the plugs and replace fluids. I'll post up pics once the deal is done.

I don't think there is any drama 
the meet is set for a 3 day event. From the beginning I made it clear that I couldn't make it over there until Saturday afternoon. We had around 4 members from houston backing out, Dallas pretty much non existent as usual so I just decided the trip wasn't worth it for me as a big part of it for me is the caravan on the way

40 minutes north of here, it's snowing. 
So, that means...it'll snow later today here.
WTF. BBQ.

Nothing like spending 2 hours scripting something only for it to not compile.
I had debugging.
