RWD>FWD! Depends if you want to go in a straight line or take turns and LOL. And have a car with 80000 miles. I would do the FR-S then you have RWD and a brand new car and warranty.

It has a nice mods... but I'll put that $15k on FR-S. Maybe I'm bias here, but if I gonna go used route, I rather put IS300 w 2JZ turbo swap w other mods or STI, MRS, & so many better used car out there w that price tag.

I think that price is a bit overpriced. And at 80k miles, you're better off investing your money in a new car that you can make into your own. Its not a bad car though, its just that price tag throws leads me to say pass (@$15k or $18k).

That is not a Mugen front lip and I don't know of any adjustable Mugen coilovers. I'm a Mugen freak since the 90's and have owned several Mugen parts ranging from EF to DC5. Just fyi...

edit:
It's Hondata...not honda data

Correct on the Hondata/lip.. but there are Mugen N1s for the DC5. N1s are awesome dampers too but I'd be surprised if he has those.. they retail for 4k without springs and he said he's put ~6k in... so if they are Mugen's they are likely the Sports which are quite a bit different Not sure how you missed N1s (and before that N0s) for all that time though!

He's stating ANY adjustable Mugen Coilover

If there's Mugen coilovers for other Hondas, I'm pretty sure there's for DC5

edit: Just did quick search, & I only found Mugen SS for DC5

N1's are available also. I've seen a DC5 with N1s with Bob Endicott driving it.

Just the dampers and joints will run you ~5k, plus whatever springs you want...
