Selling the 2001 EX

How much you think I should ask for it? It was in an accident, you can't really tell (clean title) just a fender bender. I didn't own the car at the time and the shop did a lot of overspray, that's the only noticable thing. 21,xxx miles, MT, EX. Clean inside and out (except the little bit of overspray). I just can't afford it anymore... I pay over 560 a month with insurace and payments. This is because I have a DUI and two speeding tickets, plus it's a newer car with full coverage. I want to just get a beater *but still decent* and get a new motorcycle instead.

I'm thinking starting at 13-14k? Then people can talk it down to 12 or so. It still has a warrenty and ****...

from what im hearing, if i were to buy that car, i'd offer 10g at most considering its been in an accident giving it a salvage title (big turn off when reselling the car, brings down value) and its an 2001 USED, so that brings the value down even more. i guess it depends on location too when figuring out the value of your car. also knowing you had an DUI and other tickets, i would assume you are a wreckless driver and treated this car with not much proper care?

take no offense, its just my opnion and view of it.

goodluck selling the car though

Honestly man, I wouldnt expect to get more then 7-8k for it. like Jttegx said, it has been in a accident and you say there is alot of paint overspray. Those both bring the value down alot. Also it is a 01, I see alot of 02-03 civics selling around here for 9-10k and they have about the same miles then yours. And they are in perfect condition. If you want to get more, fix the major things wrong with it.

Well I'm VERY **** with cars... it's about a 3 inch area of over spray. I sold my MINT 240sx because I was so ****... best 1990 240 I've ever seen... thing was mint when I look back at it. The only way to notice the over spray is to literally get on your knees and look up under the bumper. The title is clean as I said... it was a minor fender bender that just needed a little touch up paint or something... stock bumper, no dents... just a little over spray. I do NOT drive my cars hard, when I got the DUI I was young and ****ing stupid (19 and "invincible" at the time, god that's one of the few things I regret}. I barely ever even go over 4 grand with it...

Here is a pic

When i sold me 01 EX auto with 24k i got like 11.5 for it...but that was over 2 years ago. I think you'd be lucky to get 9k for an 01 now.
