Yeah, that was my first choice. I was hoping to find a GSR, but those are hard to find around here that aren't ratted out.

How are the LS Integras?

I like the interior and chassis a lot better, over civics. They have long transmissions, you can get around 35 mpg if you're nice to em.

My '98 Integra Ls has 216k on it and gets 33mpg. Air blows ice cold, good in snow. Perfect DD

Mine was a SH Prelude (so 5 speed), and I loved that thing like it was a member of my family. Don't let people talk you out of it, just do your homework. The H22 tends to burn oil in general, you just have to check your oil and be diligent about your oil changes. In 8 years of having my 2000 Prelude, the oil burning thing was a non-issue.

I've never heard of the water in the trunk thing either...unless you remove your spoiler and leave the holes exposed, then you're just an idiot. :P

Water in the trunk is the drain tubes for the sunroof. Cracked or moved or something.
