Good deal? You wouldn't want this car even if it was white with a black interior.

In the event someone else is looking at this thing it's no surprise it's that price and still unsold after two months. Would be interesting to know what it finally sells for but we'll never know.. A pig with fresh lipstick and possibly a good project but not for this price.

"Loaded with Tons of Improvements including Brian Cower Stage 2 Cams, Skunk 2 Throttle Body, K&N Intake, Ported Intake, ATI Damper, 355 Fuel Pump, 650 ID Injectors, ... Upgraded 8 Speaker Premium Stereo and Much Much More!!!"

Looks like an aftermarket exhaust (Invidia Q300?) with "burned tips" (Photo 12) and an Air-Fuel gauge (Photo 23) carved in the center of the dashboard (formerly supercharged or at least cat-delete?). Hard to fix that hole in the dashboard unless you want an AF gauge there.
The car failed emissions testing in 2020 and 2021 and failed safety inspection in July 2021 too. The emissions failures reinforce my guess the car was super/turbo charged at one time. Car was "reconditioned" and passed inspection in July 2021.

Car has been registered in NC, VA, and MD (sea coast states). No underside photos but the lack of rust under the hood is encouraging.

This is all from the advertisement and CARFAX information. It's really just clues and only a portion of the data available but is FREE at MyCarFax dot Com (or similar). If you have a VIN or tag number/state there's quite a bit of information available. CARFAX is designed to be a maintenance tracker for US (and Canada?) owners but the electrons don't seem to care who looks at the car. You can probably create an account and check the VIN on your Acura -- for fun if nothing else.

I'm sure there are guys here who can identify aftermarket exhausts by photos and detect where forced induction was removed.

oooh good to know there's a free car fax website ! ( I had already prepaid a few VIN checks on another website ! ).
Of course, if I come accross a GPW, I will have a way closer look at all the details !!!

Since the purpose is maintenance the bulk of the information on the MyCarFax site is mainly service information but that includes the mileage and where performed. Vehicle registration and title dates show as I recall. Self-maintenance won't be reported but many real shops submit their information to CarFax. At least two oil changes at a "jiffy lube" type shop, none at Honda dealers noted. Maintenance notes contain clues. Oil changes at the non-dealer shops rarely use genuine Honda S2000 oil filters which are an article of faith here.
