They are great little cars. My favorite is the '98 GSR because it was the first year of the facelift and the last year you could get cloth in a GSR.

My fiance's '96 LS 4 door could really use the VTEC sometimes, but on the flip side it is a little less manic on the freeway.

I had great times in my 95 GSR 2dr.

First Honda. There has been nothing else since (all 4 have been Hondas).

What a great car that was.

I still use a '95 GS-R as a beater, hell you can fold down the rear seat and use the hatch like it was a small pickup bed.

143k miles, original clutch, no major service issues. I still wind it out all the time. Feels dog slow compared to the S2k but it is. Handling is pretty good. Really a fun car overall.

Body integrity has gone to crap over ten years, everything rattles and the paint is peeling off the hood and the roof. But everything still works and it's dead reliable. I intended to sell it when I got my wife her TSX but I just can't bear to part with it, it's good cheap fun. Well, other than the insurance premium!

IMO, the milano red is the first to go, followed by the black.

the clover green and supersonic blue seem to last the longest as I think they are metallic.

I look around whenever I walk by one in a parking lot and they seem to rust near the rear wheel wells, I'm starting to not want red in my next car for it is so hard to take car of over the years.
