My friend is looking to buy a '98 Civic EX coupe tonight for 4K, it has 110K miles, no mods, new timing belt, couple of scratchs and nicks here and there. Does this seem reasonable or should he negotiate further. Please advise.

 

carfax it. seems real cheap.

 

you couls carfax it but that only shows things that were claimed to the insurance company. I bought my ex wit ha clean carfax thingy, and the rear bumper was hit. So...

 

if its something that minor that something like a bumper was hit for 4,000 id still buy it.

 

seems a lil TOOO cheap. good find

Consumer Rated Condition: Good
"Good" condition means that the vehicle is free of any major defects. The paint, body and interior have only minor (if any) blemishes, and there are no major mechanical problems. In states where rust is a problem, this should be very minimal, and a deduction should be made to correct it. The tires match and have substantial tread wear left. A clean title history is assumed. A "good" vehicle will need some reconditioning to be sold at retail; however major reconditioning should be deducted from the value. Most recent model cars owned by consumers fall into this category.
