LX keeping its value?

I bought my car for $13,300 (02,LX coupe, 5speed, had 300 miles on it). Kelley blue book says my car is worth $13,485 with 5500 miles on it. strange but true...

and the KBB value of your car when you bought it new was over $13,485...I'm sure.

the kbb value of the car brand new was the MSRP... $15,340 or something, so your car has gone down in value, no matter what you bought it at.

I was reading in Kiplinger's Personal Finance (I was at the doctors office!) and it gave the 02 civic (LX) the award for best resale.
Oh, and off the subject a little- I have recently been inside a lancer and chevy cav. and man, I have a renewed sense of pride
in my civic - our cars are so much nicer than the others in the same price range/category. Civics
