Should I even look for a VTEC?

From what I understand, there are a few diff types of VTEC, but as far as racing goes, it basicly puts out a higher output at higher rpms.

But as for inner-city driving goes, I keep the rpms low. Xcept the VTEC-E that I think closes a valve to save fuel. ANYWHO... If I were to find a good deal on a 4DR thats NOT VTEC, but even a 1.5L. Think thats fine for city driving.

Keeping in mind I want a 1992-1995 4DR OR Coupe. Not looking to take it to the strip, I want a quick car, sumthin sporty and fun.

Thanks again everyone
