Default New Muffler, princing, Is Midas taking me for a ride?

Hey all! So, I need a new muffler and Midas says it's going o be $240.38 for parts and labor, does this sound accurate? I have a '98 Honda Civic LX. What's your take and ideas?

Thanks!

ripoff.
buy an axle-back exhaust and do it yourself. It's 2 bolts.

That's what I was thinking. The sales guy made a point to preface with, "Ah, these are expensive..."

A stock muffler? They're like $90 at advance auto parts... buy one and put it on yourself, it's really easy. Or you could use this as a good excuse if you want to get a good cat-back exhaust (assuming you want to mod your civic)
