is 6600 a good price for a 1991 Integra GS, mint condition, with 115K on the odometer?

That's really low mileage for a 13 year old car... If the body is in mint condition, :hitit:

ya, body is pretty much mint..., with the exception of a door ding on the driver side door.

stupid girl didn't change out the timeing belt, so i had to drop my offer down to 6250, and then i gotta change out the belt tommorrow for $320.

make sure you check over everything... is she the original owner? are all the service records there? if she missed the t-belt service, then there's a good chance that she didn't get oil changes done on regular intervals, etc.

has the car been garaged since it was bought? has it always been an alberta car? ... check wheel wells for rust....

and of course... haggle as much as you can

well, i was kinda worried about the oil changes, but she has only owned the car for 15000 kms....3 oil changes on average...so she couldn't have done that much damage...and i also asked her if she did regular oil changes, and she did.

there is a little rust on the inside of the doors...

hmmm if she's not the original owner, that might not be such a hot deal...
is it modded in any way? if it's been in the hands of a ricer, i'd avoid it like the plague

thats about normal for a g2 in exelant condition. when getting the t-belt done get the water pump changed as well. its like $80 more for a honda one and you have to take it off anyways. its cheap insurance

turns out she got ripped off when buying the car...she bought it last october for 7400 (with 97K on it) but the last owner told her there were no accidents...

I brought my friend along (he has owned 12 hondas in the last 5 years and has been screwed any way you can think possible)...he looked at it and noticed that the drivers side of the car had been re-painted...hence the rust on the inside of the door...some kind of accident most likely, and told me that if i bought it the rust would come through the door in under a year...so forget it!!!!

If anyone is looking at a Grey 1991 Integra GS with 116KM on it in Calgary, avoid is like the black plague, it has been in an accident and the timeing belt hasn't been changed.

Sucks to be the guy selling it, but thanks for informing us of a potential scammer.
