I PUT NEW TIRES (GOODYEAR H600) AND BRAKES (WAGNOR THERMAQUIET) ALL AROUND IN FEBRUARY OF THIS YEAR. IT HAS 186K MILES AS OF APRIL 26TH 2011. GREAT CAR, RUNS SMOOTH, GREAT GAS MILEAGE. I AM VERY METICULOUS ABOUT MAINTENANCE. OIL CHANGES EVERY 2000 MI AND USE 91 OCTANE FUEL. IT HAS A COBRA POWER ONE PERFORMANCE EXHAUST SYSTEM WITH A DC SPORTS COLD AIR INTAKE. THE VEHICLES EXHAUST SMOKES OCCASIONALLY.IT IS WHITE SMOKE WHICH MEANS A COOLANT LEAK. OIL IS LEAKING OUT ONTO THE MANIFOLD. THE GASKET UNDER THE CYLINDER COVER NEEDS REPLACEMENT. ITS AN EASY FIX AND TAKES ABOUT 15 MINUTES. I DON'T WANT TO SELL IT BECAUSE I LOVE THIS CAR,IT DRIVES AWESOME AND CORNERS SO TIGHT BUT I AM 23 AND READY TO UPGRADE TO A NEWER MODEL. I NEVER EXCEED 4K RPM AND CHANGE FLUIDS RELIGIOUSLY. ALL ELECTRIC. IT HAS MINOR DENTS DINGS AND VERY MINIMAL RUST CONSIDERING IT IS 18 YEARS OLD, GREAT CAR...

I agree. You can find better. Look for one without the normal ricer mods like exhaust and cold air intake. these almost def guarantee the car was beat into the ground..

Like the previous posters said, run. Sounds like you don't know much about cars if you think the gasket replacement is going to take 15 minutes. Maybe you're thinking of the valve cover gasket, but this wouldnt be responsible for coolant seepage. Head gasket = car is junk. If you include machining the head, expect at least a few days for a mechanic to fix it, and a bill of over $1000. Not worth it.
Yeah.. and the fact that he just tells you that " I never revved it over 4K". Honda's make most of their power over that, so, no one is going to spend money to soup it up and then drive it like a grandma
