Okay, I was at a car show last night. I'm rollin my car in and this guy comes up and starts ta;lking to me. He complimented my car and asked where I got it and how much I paid. I told him where and about how much. And it turns out he's been looking for a 4th gen civic hatch to build up. He liked my car because the body and interior are in very decent condition (minus the paint). He offered me $2500 for my car AT FACE VALUE. He didn't even look under the hood or ask what kind of problems it had. I paid $1700 for it. I would be making an 800 dollar profit off of my car. But...ITS MY CAR! Its my first car and I love it, even with all of its problems. How did you guys part with your first car?
He was saying that he'll sell me his CRx Si. We didn't talk numbers, but looking at his car it should be cheap. He's got rust, but took care of some of it. The bumper has minor cosmetic damage and the hood has a big dent in it. But I've also wanted a CRX! what to do??!!
I'm thinking if anything, I'll tell him my price is 3,000 plus I keep my rims. I could buy his crx for 1,000 and have 2,000 left over to fix it up, assuming its mechanically sound and there are no huge problems. (he's also got the all clear tails on his crx!)
what is you guy's's honest opinion about all this? I know its a long post but this a big decision for me. I need to make this decision in a few weeks.
