my automatic DA integra would probably beat this. it mught be as fast as an sr running on 2 or 3 cylinders, but a completely oem, sr20,...and imported, everything you said about this car is saying that its fast. so you pretty much saying it is fast. so stop riding his dick. this car is no way in hell worth 4k, and i know its OBO but start with something reasonable, like 3k obo. then u can get the 2.5-2.8k which is what its actually worth.
