whats up yall. new here but ive been lurking for awhile. i dont have an integra yet but im trying to get one now. but check this out:

theres a type r for sale for 2700. its a 2001 and nothings wrong with it! except a couple of blemishes in the interior. the engine and trans are good, so he says. but thats not the point.

ive been in two accidents and totaled two cars, yeah kinda sucks. the first one, i got a wreckless driving ticket. i didnt hit anybody, i just hit the median on the highway. the last one, where i totaled my accord, i slid into the back of somebody in teh rain. they had to stop suddenly because of the car in front of them. so i slid and hit their car, which had no damge at all. im the only one who got a ticket however. following too closely.

anyways, the first ticket was expunged from my record. now this one probably wont since i cant go back to driving school. and i want this type r but my dad says its a sports car, and since i have this ticket, im looking at around 350 for insurance. a month that is. he said he's going to call the company tomorrow and ask.

but i was wondering if this is the same for all of the integras ? like the ls model and the gsr ? because i know i want my next car to be an integra and this deal popped up so i wanted to get it. but my dads worried about the insurance and he thinks that since its an acura, working on it will be hard. i tried to convince him that acuras and hondas are closely related, but he wont listen.

i just wanted to know if this is the same for all integras, because i have no problem getting a gsr or even a ls. and i didnt want to make two threads so i threw it in here.

There must be a typo. Maybe the seller meant 12700.

I think the ls/rs/gs models would probably have lower insurance rates because their motors arent as powerful as the gsr and type r.

BBHG.. one love.
no way a type r for 2700... but welcome! im from VA too. acura/hondas are really easy to work on. there are so many forums for any problem you have.. ive learned a bunch from local forums (vadriven.com) and team-integra, honda-tech, nwp4life, and of course... clubintegra :) good luck with your.. er.. type r?? if its for real, thats a hell of a deal. doesnt make sense though :/

well i emailed him and he said it was correct. 2700. and he said nothings wrong with it. it seems really sketch but he said id buy it with ebay protection and ebay will hold the money while i get a 5 day inspection period. so if its not what was advertised then he will pay shipping back for it.

dont follow his procedures, that's a SCAM obviously, i've seen a lot of scammers off those site, offer free shipping , you have 3 days to check out the car, ebay holding the fund, blah blah blah.... man, there are so many SCAMMERS these days. Watch out!!!!!

well after i emailed him, he took the listing off of craigslist. and he said that shipping should be around 280-300. he moved to helena, mt and the car is already at the shipping company. i emailed him back and asked for a vin number, still waiting on his response.

lolz, silly! dont waste your time buddy, think about it an 2001 integra Type R for $2700??? the least espensive type R i saw that was sold for $7000, and that was a 98. Even the 2001 LS still go over 3-4g with average mileage! Others flagged off his ad, he didn't remove it!
