Used car question

[Shane W]

Would you buy a Certified used Honda if it had 60,000 miles on it? I normally wouldn't look at something with that many miles, but the whole certified thing has me intrigued.

my dad's certified Akita dog couldn't win a dog competition if her life depended on it.

does that help?

[TIP]

Depends on the price.

Civic? Accord? What year?

CRX?

If you have a cheap CRX with only 60k on it, hook a brother up!

[Bill Nolan]

60K is nothing for a Honda. Twice that is practically nothing for a Honda, especially an Accord.

That's not bad at all, actually.

That's what I was thinking and the certified warranty has it covere till 100,000 miles.

And Hondas have good gas mileage too.

I had a friend who had 200,000 miles on his Honda Civic. He was going to go treat it to a carwash but it got stolen. The police found the remains in some far off place. But by the time he got there, the remains got stolen, leaving him with only a lugnut.

So I guess they are reliable :)

I would agree. That's a reliable automobile.

I only partly agree with this. I drive a 2000 Accord V6 with 65k on it, and there really, really skimped on the transmission for that generation. They had to issue an extended 6 year warranty to make up for it.

You have to supply your own Fart Pipe.

That's very reasonable if it's a clean car.

[RøcketFrøg]

And Hondas have good gas mileage too.

Civics certainly do.

Yeah, I had ordered the Hybrid, but something hit that I can't do it now. :sad:

[urbannerd]

That's not too bad. Ask dude how about 10k.

How is the condition of the body? Run a car fax.

Start the car up and listen to it idle. Rub your finger in the tail pipe while it's running. If your finger is coated with a bunch of black shit, it might have some engine problems (that's not the end all be all test).

I currently own a 93 Toyota Camry with 179k miles and it runs great. Hondas can run a long time too (especially those civics). 60k isn't much for those cars.

My 1990 Honda Civic hatch has 159,000 miles on it and is still going stong.

[Caley Tibbittz]

I'd buy pretty much anything under 80,000... miles or dollars...

[William Satterwhite]

I work for a used car lot and I know from experience that the miles aren't too big of a deal, you really need to look into the car's history. Run a Carfax (if you're getting it from a dealership they should be able to pull one for you) and check for any accidents and for how many times it's been serviced (and what for).

[Shane W]

Well, that one was gone by the time I got there. I did find my car though. :D

2002 Accord SE Black with leather interior and just under 40k miles. :D

shitbox of death, dont do it.

[William Satterwhite]

That's a really good deal if the car is clean.

It's REAL clean

You think its going to be full of dead chickens or something?

One can only hope.

[alexlannin]

certified warranties rule, and you can always buy a service plan to keep it going.
