According to kbb.com. I would say if it is in good condition and in that price range it would be a good option. Do the timing belt and w/p asap. (As said above.) Then I would start doing things to it that will give you slight power but more mpg increases. Underdrive pulleys, intake manifold, Hondata, intake, exhaust. I LOVE my Type R. It should run mid-14's according to all the review magazines. I am still able to get 30mpg driving it like I stole it. It is a great comprimise for someone like myself that can't afford a reliable dd and a fast toy.
