Default 1997 and tranny feels weird.

Hey guys, I just looked at a civic for sale and all was OK except the shifter was pretty slow to move from each gear. The car was pretty cold, but it still should not have been this tight. The car is really clean and cheap and I honestly do not care if I have to put a little work into it. Ive never owned a honda before, so I am pretty clueless about this one. Is this a common problem or ???

Thanks in advance.

Eh, mine and my friends are like that.. I think you just need to replace the shifter bushings but I'm not sure.
