Default About to buy another Civic - Good deal?

I just sold off my 1994 EX coupe and I need another work/commuter car. I came across a sweet 2002 EX with 76,000 miles locally. The owner wanted $8,000 and I think I got the price down to $7,350. As far as I know the timing belt has not been done. The car is MINT inside and out.

I'm going to have the cartaken it to Honda to get checked out. It SEEMS that the price is pretty good (checked versus Edmunds), does it seem like a good deal? I know the miles are high, but any car I use for work is going to have high milage anyway.

The car felt good on the test drive, just a little slower than I'm used to (been driving the 350z since I sold the Civic).

Thanks in advance!

If you dont plan on modding it, I think it would be a decent deal.

Sounds fairly good....you said 76000 locally, like around town, or could a lot of those miles be freeway miles or something...if so its sounding sweeter and sweeter

76k is just the beginning on a Honda, it's not even broken in yet!

I paid 7500 for my 99 EX with 80k miles.
