Which civic to choose?

Hi, I am going to buy a used Civic hybrid. Now I found 2 cars and I am seeking help here to decide which one is better.

1. 2006 Civic Hybrid, ~100K, One Owner, well maintained.
2. 2007 Civic Hybrid, ~170K, IMA battery just changed, transmission replaced @ 150K. $1000 cheaper than the 1st one.

So For a used civic hybrid, if IMA battery and transmission have already been changed or replaced, is it worth to take it? Anyone has any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

Has long as you have all he paperwork on 2007 for the Replacements and can prove that the work was Legit as well as the parts were new.. then I say Go for it.. shoululd be like a new car again and shouldn't have to worry about anything for a long while when it comes to those parts .. just my Opinion hope that helps .

Thanks for ur advice. I asked the 2007 owner and was told the replaced battery was used one. So I decide to take the first one to do a mechanic check first.
