Bad deal. You'll find something cleaner for $5k.

id pay maybe 3k, nothing more. the milage is low but what does it matter its damaged and its auto, so id assume you would swap it out so mialge doesnt mean much.

definitely not worth it...97 civics price ranges around 4000-6000 but salvage title will make it hard to sell back once you wanna change cars. try edmunds, kbb, classifieds, and try to get an average.

I would say that's too high. I paid $4900 for this . It has the usual few dings, but is in great shape overall. I would wait for something better. Good luck.

A while ago, I was lookin' on Autotrader around my area for an EK hatch, I found a 97 black CX, 89k miles, AT , ran great for only 4000. I went out to test drive it just for fun, great car. Wish I had the money to buy it.

Yeah, thats a bit spendy. A friend of mine built a 97 hatch last summer with 99 SI front clip/ctr lip, CF duckbill, coilovers, new FBP paint, super clean interior and exterior, on SI wheels for $6k and had a hard time getting that even with clean title.

Seems a little extreme. The ONLY bonus you get when you buy a salvaged vehicle is the price...this should be a dirt cheap kinda price.
