no......the price is waaay too high

for 1/2 the cost you can buy a super clean eg and swap a c5 into it, as well as upgraded suspension

If that is the car you have always wanted, and can swing it, then, Yes. plus it will hold its value better than some cheap pos with swaped in parts. Heck, it might be a classic some day. Is it a real TypeR?

way to high of a price for that. You should get a base Integra for cheap and get the type r motor for 5g and swap that.

I wouldn't. They're asking way too much and I've never been one for small penis yellow.

I dunno what to tell u bro. It's a little too high but again if it's a real Type R they are rare as f@ck. If i were u just buy a regular teg and swap the motor and then turbo it and that way it will eat the R.

exactlly. if you want to own a rare car, then buy that. but if your just gonna swap everything out then theres no reason to buy that. get a LS and just swap a motor in it if you want a project car.

*edit*

thats not a JDM type r, its a usdm one. usdm headlights, and its left hand drive

i realized this after looking at the picture after it completely loaded.

still im not sure. just browsing my options on cars.

i want a car that i wont have to swap a motor into it to make it fast stock. So no civics or 90-93 integras and 94-00 LS/GS/RS.
