I talked to the owner, he says the body has no rust but the car was in a front accident and there is a new bumper on their. There is no frame damage but there is a scratch on the front fender from getting hit by the bumper. I asked him if he ever replaced the timing belt or water pump when he put the H in and he said no. I didn't ask him if he converted to manual tensioner. What do you think?

 

Just to recap, it's a 1991 LX coupe with manual transmission, 163,000 miles. The asking price is $3,700.

No, that's not a good deal.

For the sake of comparison, you can buy a new '08 LX with manual transmission for under $20,000 and of course then have a warranty, have a *much* bigger car, and of course get the color you want.

Or take a look at the '08 Civic LX, it's going to be very comparable in size to that '91 Accord.

 

I understand if you say its not a good deal but I dont see why your comparing it to brand new cars?

 

I was comparing it to the price of a new car to show how absurd the price is.

Check the value of this car on http://www.edmunds.com , I'm seeing the following values:

Trade-in: $472
Private Party: $844
Dealer Retail: $1,470

And that's not even taking into account that the car has been in an accident. The guy is asking $3,700? He's nuts. Just walk away.

 

I came to me a few days ago like man...this price sounds high...I was blinded when I saw the 98 type s. I'll still go look at it but im definitely going to ask him to lower the price. Thanks man
