I agree 100%. You could also find a extremely low miles Civic VX or HX (under 100k) for 4,500. I believe there was a member here selling a VX with only like 93k miles for 3500 here a while back.

I know you live in VA but, here are just some examples of what Old Mechanic is talking about.

Something like this would serve you well, it's an auto but, still.

This one is extremely nice as well.
