Default Is this 98 Accord worth buying?

98 Honda Accord EX
104xxx miles
Manual transmission
Cloth interior
Sunroof
CD player
Power doors/locks
Keyless Entry
Hot heat/ Cold AC


*Needs repair
*Damage on front driver side bumper and behind rear passenger side door (shown in pictures)

Just bought a new car so I need the money!


$2800 OBO

Apparently there is front end damage from another car running a stop sign and hitting it and the rear quarter is damaged from sliding off the road and hitting a fence post.

Also, the "needs repair" part is a low idle and the chick thinks its the clutch going out. It shifts fine so I think it is just a dirty IACV.

KBB in Fair condition is $3460. Would this car be considered fair based on what you know and see?





Let me know if it is still worth the price.

That's the thing, she says it shifts fine but the car idles low. She thinks that Is the clutch. I don't think the clutch would cause a low idle, maybe iacv
