I picked up a 2000 HX, 142k mi, for $2700 a few months ago. Minimally maintained, but no real issues. I avg 40.5 mpg right now.

I think $4k is closer to reality. Otherwise you'll have to wait until gas jumps back up to $4.50+/gal and then you could probably get closer to $6k! Its almost like timing the stock market.
Took 21 days to get my asking price.

So, I don't know what to say to you.
