Ok, so I was hit by a drunk driver four months ago and I am now getting my settlement money. When I was with my ex she bought one an it really grew on me. I have been looking an the price range seems to be between 10-13k with 60k miles. Dose this sounds about right? I looked at the rsx but it is just not my style, looks better for a young college girl. I remember that my ex's si had a trans. problem with 1st to 2ed but i really never drove it hard so really do not mind. Some of the ones i have found have been modded an im really not wanting one that some asshat messed with. Dose the price seem right an should i buy from a dealer or another person?

 

go to www.nada.com and check out the prices.. it will tell you

to be honest 10-13k seems pretty steep for an ep3 as i bought my 02 rsx-s for 12.6k with 51k miles

 

I thought it sounded a bit much. I live in Austin, TX an looking here, dallas, houston, an other areas it seems to be the going rate.

 

Damn, 12.6 with 51k on it. thats a steal, i put out 14k for mine with 50k on it.

 

i know.. orgininally guy wanted helluva lot more but i bargained him down and it was at a dealership to.

 

guy who was sellin mine origianlly wanted 16.5 for it

 

I have found a few 05's with 20k want $17000 but i can't spend that much. All of the 02-04's are less then 60k an priced around 10-12k. so i guess that's just what the going rate is.

hey man input on my buy i have an 2003 ep3 si n it had 46k I got myn for 12.5k he was asking 14k

 

and from a dealership so no problems with any tech problems I have it all covered by the dealership I ran in2 the 2 problems so far nothing major the run channel on the door like the weather stripe had 2 be replaced and my gas gauge wasnt giving the right reading so I brought it in and they replaced the fuel pump for me free so dealership is a good way 2 go

Why does everyone keep saying that?!

 

LOL

 

You might say that if you never drove a type s. Im guessing opinion changes after you whip one around tho, mine did. I use to say they were chick cars too, till I drove my boys '05, now look what I'm driving.

Insurance isnt as bad as you think. Im 23 and have 4 points on my record and I pay $268/month for 3 cars. 117= '02 Rsx-S 107='00 Accord Coupe 40= '98 S10. Look into esurance, or even triple A if you have it, they both will give you really good rates.

 

I need to do that. Let's say the insurance would not be that bad for an rsx-s would you go with the ep3 or dc5

I drove an s (and my ep and wrx on the same day. I picked the slowest one lol). Of course the rsx-s was fast but I didn't like how it handled (was moderatly lowered) and overall the ep seemed best (wrx had problems). When people say the RSX is a college girl car, it's because it literally is real popular with college girls. Most people think the EP is ugly. Which is fine by me (less ep's out there).

 

I think that is too much, i am only selling my wifes 02SI for only 10000$ with 65000K in it . u want to know more about the car I am here!

 

Im in texas though. NY is way too far.

 

I just sold my 02 EP3 for $10K with 47K miles stock. Carmax wanted to give me $7,500, but was selling an 03 w/ 64K miles for $13,500.

well i found one, it's a stock 02 with 57k on it an they want 10,000. They say it's in good shape an that nothing is wronge. female driver and have moved on to a bigger car. If everything checks out what do you think i should offer? i was thinking 9k.

Carmax is a joke. They offer the lowest of the low trade values and slap their customers with a no-hassle price. Their only positive point is nice warranties.

 

this is what she wrote me back,

("I bought it as a Certified Used Honda about 2.5 years ago, so the title should be clean. I believe I was the second owner. I put about 20,000 miles on it since I owned it. The two rear panels have been painted but there is no structural damage to the vehicle.

I left 3 weeks ago so teh car is not being driven on a regular basis")

 

u guys have it easy in the states cmon!. lol. check kbb at all? imo private sales r always cheaper and make sure u carfax it..
