People actually want money for a car with 500,000 kms? As in more than scrap money? I passed on a 2003 Silverado SLT crew cab Duramax diesel 4x4 with leather seats, running and driving with 512,000 KMs on it for $1200 - KMs that high just don't have a value anymore, regardless of the vehicle. That Civic is worth about $150, and that's before you take out the cat convertor and battery to turn in for scrap value, then crush the rest of the car.
