Default New to hondas need info

I am thinking about buying a 95ex civic 2dr. It has a vtec 1.6. car has 148,000 miles and body is a little rough : light hail,door dings,etc but car runs and drives ok. The only thing i dont understand about the car is it tracks strait when going down the road, you can let go of steering wheel and it stays strait but steering wheel is about 1/8 of a turn to the right of center. They want $2500 for the car. Is this a good deal? I have heard the vtech is worth a bunch just by itself. Any common problems on this model that I should look at? Thanks in advance for any info and help!

check kbb for what the car should be worth and carfax to see if it has been wrecked.

its VTEC not VTECH, and $2500 sounds pretty good. If an alignment doesnt fix that, then it might cost u some money later on. Make sure there is nothing wrong with that before u buy it.

My brother has a Z he crashed, fixed and drove for a while and the wheel was the same way. It could be nothing but you do want to be sure.

yeah check kbb and the paper for simular prices around your area. vtec is worth it through. and talk to them maybe they will drop the price the amount of an alignment.
