05 civic

Hi everybody! I'm buying 05 civic LX sedan tomorrow morning. Just wanted your opinion. 37000miles, one owner 9100$ , clean carfax,
I have been driving my 530 HP 03 Mustang Cobra for a while. I want to make it my weekend toy only. With the gas prices going up it doesn't make any sense to DD it anymore. Honda is what I wanted to buy, because of the reliability and great mileage. (I get about 15 combined in my mustang) I test drove LX and loved it. I also looked at Honda insight which was a nice little car. 85000$ the car has 60000miles, and gets like 60mpg! when I opened the hood and started the car I heard rattling coming from the engine and that made me decide on LX. Dealer was trying to convince me that it is a normal thing for hybrids! Anyway I'm excited and hope the car will live along time and save me a lot on gas.
Victor

Sounds pretty good to me, 37K miles is practically nothing. Auto or manual?

85000 $ seems pretty steep for a used insight

Agreed, $85000 is way too high for any Honda, its a good thing you didn't buy it.
