I know what I am doing, The car is in really good shape for its age. I have bought and sold probably 25-30 hondas/cars over the last 3 years.
The engine only has 120,019 miles on it, if you look under the valve cover the LMA and valves are very clean, no burnt on dirty oil or shit like that. The timing belt was also just done not to long ago. The car ran like a charm, no smoke from the exhaust, no oil in the rad. etc.
I usually pick these up and they need motor or head gaskets. I dont mind doing it but its a lot better when you buy a car, bring it home wash it and profit. I drive around a lot and see the same cars over and over again, when I notice cars not moving from driveways or no plates on them I go up to the door and ask if they want to sell it. Works out for the both of us.
Oh ya, they are pricey because they are reliable, cheap to fix, and last forever everyone knows that. I wouldnt buy anything but a Honda personally.
