I've never claimed that the car was immaculate or in mint condition or that it needed nothing. If it did I'd be asking for around five grand. I've been up front with all interested buyers when asked what's the good and bad. You made an offer which I wasn't comfortable with at the time - especially when I said I was relatively firm. If I had taken your offer you wouldn't be saying that your time was wasted.

you actually were asking over 6 grand originally...you didnt tell me anything that was wrong with it, and when i pointed anything out you played dumb about it. i made an offer for i believe around 3400 with the known problems...which you are now asking 3200 obo

Rear bumper always had a bit of spiderwebbing. Its just not noticeable in the photos.

you fail to mention this in your fs ad

Tranny grinds when shifting into 3rd only when over 3000RPM but I don't drive the car hard so it doesn't bother me as much.

this is a integra gsr, of course you have to shift over 3000rpm!

Clutch is not slipping out of gear but I would suggest replacing it along with the timing belt when it's due in the next 10,000 km.

when i mentioned the clutch felt bagged out your response was its fairly new

It may have felt underpowered as it was having issues with the main relay which has since been fixed.

you failed to mention anything about the main relay when i was driving it

It shows well in the photos. Nothing has been changed or covered up. It's a great daily driver. Has some small chips in paint here and there on the mostly original paint. It's not a rust bucket like a lot of them out there and the interior is not trashed. Very good condition for it's age. Just don't expect a show car.

i find it odd that you have said no to offers for around 4grand but now your fishing for 3200 obo??? haha ok ...oh wellllllllllllllllllll..... gl with sale :thumbsup:

you don't happen to live in kits do you? and married? i had a client's husband with collector plates on a GS-R. this was my highschool dream car, GLWS

Well, I sold a 93 Black GS-R with more issues for $5500. I originally priced this according to my last sale and believed that the savings in insurance and/or the time and money it takes to return a DB2 to stock condition to be eligible for collector plates was worth the asking price.

Your offer was $2500 when I was asking for $3600 firm. Relatively firm does not mean I'd go down $1100. Circumstances have changed and I'm more willing to sell it for less.

I didn't think there was anything wrong with the clutch at the time. Maybe because I drive it pretty conservatively. I'm only starting to realize it may be on its way out.

I didn't know the issue was the main relay until after taking it to the shop. I thought it was the starter, alternator or battery which I would've replaced before the sale.

I don't live in kits but my wife goes to that are to do her hair. That probably is me and this is the car. I'm not aware of any other DB2s with collector plates out there.

After further examining the performance of the clutch, I believe there's still a healthy amount of life left. Starts engaging with pedal around 3/4 depressed and is fully engaged by around 1/4 depressed. It's going to slip more than say a stage 1 clutch and won't be as as aggressive. Anyway, you guys see for yourself. I've only ever had about 4 people who have actually come and take a look at my car since I've put it on sale. A lot of interest and admirers but not many serious enough to actually show up.
