IMO probably the best deal all around. Just don't get a riviera. |
Re: Buying a used Honda
With my 1996 used civic experience I would recommend you to check
especially the transmission (manual or automatic). If you notice even little shifting problem simply do_not_buy it. You might have to spend a lot on fixing the transmission. For an auto transmission car, do a road test especially to check transmission behavior when turning (left or right). Also check transmission behavior by slowing down slowly to 20-25km (but not stopping) and trying to accelerate (slowly, quickly) to speed up. These are out of my first-hand experience with my first car bought about 4 months ago. I had to do a major overhaul of the transmission recently. |
