Default Looking for an S

I might be heading over to this dealer this week to see this NFR Ap2

http://www.autotrader.ca/a/Honda/S20...howcpo=ShowCPO

Does anyone see any redflags? It's 3.5 hours away and in Quebec..

I feel its about 2-3k overpriced but I don't see any other NFR's

It's a US car.. But its becoming such a rare car that I wouldn't fret over colour. As long its not been modified you will enjoy it.
Also, try to find out when it was imported. When I was looking all the ones I found in QC were modified. Found 1 AP1 that was not abused but it was 200+ clicks.

What I have learned.

ALWAYS ASK IF IT IS REBUILT OR VGA. ESPECIALLY FROM QUEBEC. They somehow always import the salvaged cars and then rebuild them. If you bring it to Ontario you will then have to do a structural inspection which starts at $300(if they say they have to fix something $$$) and an alignment $70.

This one was just listed

Buying from Ontario means you don't have to do the e-test and safety yourself when you bring it back. Also sometimes theres some weird tax thing when you go to Quebec and bring it back to Ontario.

I've been talking to the dealer and I might head over Tuesday.

He's asking me to fax them a certified cheque the day before I go of what I would be paying, does that seem normal?

Also, is that a N1 exhaust? Hard to tell for me, I've read that it's loud.
