Any NOVA RSX/K-Series owners willing to scout for cash?

Whats up NOVA, i'm in the market for an RSX Type-S but the options in hampton roads pretty much suck. i'm looking for one thats in good shape and that hasnt been beaten up on and i've found about 3 or 4 prospects in NOVA.

with that being said i was wondering if anyone out there has some spare time and would be willing to check out a few rides for me in exchange for some cash.

i would prefer someone that knows about the RSX and K-Powered motors, and someone that knows vtec. i know this sounds silly, but i test drove a DC5 today and vtec didn't kick in and the 'dealer' didnt know jack about what i meant. at any rate, feel free to pm or post and we can discuss the terms.

p.s. having a digital camera is also a big plus.

Was it throwing a CEL? Because you should feel the 'kick' on stock non smooth powerbands.

definitely no CEL... it was at a dealer... the car seemed 'OK' had a slight tap in the head... but other than that it ran ok...

Sounds to me like the car wasn't fully warmed up. Same on the "head tap" K series, or at least my two k-series are slightly loud with the "tap" sound when very cold.

i basically have 50 bucks to offer... year is 02-03 one has 58k and the other has 63 i think. color isnt as much an issue as quality of the car. looking for the titanium interior though.... one is 11500 and the other is 13500.
