I'm contemplating removing the OEM Civic Floormats, Blue arm rest, and cover cargo and dropping the price. Most VX's I see do not have OEM floormats, an armrest, or a cargo cover and they are asking a lot for the car with high mileage. I could of swore my car would of been a pretty quick sale.

It doesn't seem like anyone cares about those little things. I bought all of those things personally and they were all really expensive because of the rare blue interior. I spent over $400 for all three pieces. (Cargo cover I was able to find new in box though, so it carried a big premium).

It seems that most people on CL think i'm trying to get rich off this car. I literally just bought it almost 3 months ago. I fixed all the little things wrong, did all the maintenance, and added those OEM pieces. Literally like a week after I "finished" the car my work tells me they are transferring me to another office really close to my house.

Timing was just terrible because it took me forever to find a VX in this condition and took more time to do all the little things to it. Now, I don't need the car anymore. Ok i'm going to get to the point of my rant. I'm just trying to get my money that I put in it back out.

I saw a salvaged 225K Cali spec VX sell for $4,500 and it had a fat dent the size of a baseball glove on the quarter panel. So, i'm really puzzled on why mine isn't gaining traction with more serious buyers.
