Possible civic purchase.

1998 Black 4 door Honda Civic EX with manual transmission D16Y8 vetec (afaik)

273k miles

Dent on front of hood, Rear quarter panel a bit dented, rollin' on a donut.

Besides that in great shape, interior is nice too.

But, I can get it for around 1000 or less. afaik.

Epa mpg 25/32 - 28

Which kinda sucks though. But people seem to be able to pull 40 with them.

But compared to my car, I can almost hit 40.

I'm not sure if it'd be worth it?

Other question. What are the cost of transmissions/engines for this generation civic?

Say I wanted to put in a transmission from a 92-95 vx or one of those more efficient engines. What is the price range of them?

General opinions?
