The body had 140k mi.,pretty straight, paint shiny but rust on rear quarters. Interior was good except for a wear spot on rear fold down seats, no rips or burns though. Engine was swpped w/ another 1.6l (not sure of correct mileage). Excessive smoke due to valve guides. 5sp was noisy, brakes had x-drilled rotors but rear pistons were n/g. Many misc. but necessary parts were in need of replacement. (main relay, dizzy, etc.) I was hasty in buying the car and I may have overpaid, but after all of the work Ive done to it I dont regret it at all. Maybe I should have been patient and saved for the GN I really wanted.

Got my 1994 DX Sedan man. in perfect working order, oxidation on the roof, other than that, in perfect working order. Parents paid $1000 for it as a birthday present.

If the body is straight and rust free I would pay the $1200. Its getting pretty hard to come by a rust free, hell even a good condition ef hatch these days(where I live anyway). So to me it seems like a pretty good deal even if it needs some minor work.

Dosen't sound to bad for $1200 just needs some TLC, the body is what would be the price maker, clean with no rust its worth it...

but considering that they only blue book 1100 in PERFECT CONDITION, I dont know maybe I just dont see the "hidden value"(Demand) for these cars. Im just looking for a commuter till I save more money to buy a nice teggy :P

Hondas never sell for BB value, look up the NADA value, if you want a commuter buy a geo

whats the diff between the nada and bb value. and no thanks on the geo :X I understand that Hondas never go for "bb value" thanks to gas prices and ricers :3
