I would suggest Jeff at Ganley Honda in Cleveland. It would be worth the 2 hour drive. PM Hardtopguy. Also, insist on a new car, not one that has been on the lot and test driven. 3/4 of the yahoo salespeople let test drivers VTEC the car. NO VTEC UNTIL AFTER BREAK-IN PERIOD.

VTEC is bad unless you have properly broken in the car sure, but does anyone know why or what potential damage may be done, how to look for signs?!?!?IMMKE honda let my dad take on out and he dipped into the rev limiter a few times... sales guy didn't even blink

Engine speed is not as big an issue as load. Mine has 400 miles on it now and I'm slowly taking it up the rev range, but no WOT. Haven't been above 7k yet. One thing that's a little irritating at first is the light flywheel and almost no torque off idle. But I don't mind so much

I searched everywhere in the Columbus area, and the dealer that I found to negotiate the most was Tansky out of Zanesville, Ohio. They also happened to have an '03 Formula Red, which is what I wanted. It had 17 miles on it, and was parked on the showroom floor, buried so that every other car had to be moved out just to drive it out. Tanksy is a small dealer, but I was able to get the car for less than 31,000 in January. Nice guys to deal with, too.
If they have the color you want, they are probably a good dealer to check out.
