depends on what your plans are. Are you looking at modifying it, or are you going to keep it stock?

i think im just going to keep to stock. unless there are some inexpensive mods that are worth getting.
im just need it to drive to work and school. somthing dependable, good in winter, and good on gas

they are good cars. But do not take mods well. (i have a 2002) so if your going to keep it a stock 7th gen (2001-2005) there good cars IMO. If your going to mod it, might as well look for a diffrent car.

And i cant see the car your looking at, the link takes me to a main page. But be sure you run a car fax on it.

I have an 01 ex coupe 5spd.
I absolutely love it.
I paid $7000 for mine and it was clean. No problems, norepairs needed, etc.
I bought it with 61,000 mile on it. Completely stock.
Alloy wheels. Basically new tires.
Can't see the link to the car that you're talking about so I can't say anything about your pricing.

Not sure where you're located...I'm selling a 2001 EX 5speed in PA. Looking for around 7,750 for a REALLY clean silver coupe with 80,000 mi. Brand new tires also.

https://www.hondacivicforum.com/m_535013/tm.htm

They're great cars for mileage and reliability. I pretty consistently got 38mpg on the highway.

Pictures would help, and that price seems high for the mileage.
