I'm looking at the car below and am not sure whether or not I'd like to get it. I still have to go take a look at it but currently it's the only thing within a 300 mile radius that is in my price range and is a manual. I haven't owned a Civic in years, but I had an '07 Accord up until recently that had almost 128,000 miles on it and was still going strong. Not too familiar with the Civics though. Please take a look and let me know whether this would be something worth looking at or if I should pass on it...thanks.

It's definitely worth a look. Floormats and headlights look crappy, but that's an easy enough fix. If it's not too far you should take her for a test drive!

Looks loke it would be worth the trip to check out.

Check all the body panels for the VIN to make sure they have not been replaced.

Bring a friend when you go to check it out, wind it out in 1st then let off the gas, it it has bad compression or valve seals your friend standing by the street will see a blue cloud puff out of the exhaust. Also look at where the body panels meet throughout the car for signs of slight color mismatches indicating body work probably from a wreck.
