1998 Integra DC2

1: i've always wanted one, it finally became affordable, if not alittle expensive
2: quicker than my corsa and better round bends
3: hopefully more reliable than my corsa *touch wood*

reasons why not:

1: short service periods
2: less than 200 miles to a tank most times
3: no torque
