Craigslist Milwaukee: '97 Civic HX lean burn love

Not mine, obviously. But something I would seriously consider if (a) I needed a car and (b) I lived anywhere near this, or (c) they sold them in Canada and I could find one locally.

1997 Honda Civic HX Coupe 5 spd manual silver Runs like a top

Lowered the price, if I can sell this car for 3500 in the next few days, I will sell it. I found another car to put in its place. Runs great, I just need something with 2 more doors. 145000 miles, grey interior 5 spd manual

NEW Clutch, Cap, Rotor, Plugs, Wires, Passenger Axle, Front Wheel Bearings, tires, muffler, all within the last 2500 miles! Yes I have all the receipts. Car runs great, I bought it and replaced all of the above and no longer need an extra vehicle. Car was hit by a deer before I bought it ( Yes I worded that correctly ) and all the car needed was a fender and a mirror, which I also replaced. Only problem with the car is the front of the drivers side door is a bit bent in / rusty from the fender that was hit. The door wasn't replaced because its not terribly noticeable. Otherwise there is a small rust spot on both rear quarter panels. Rest of the car is in great shape. I included a photo of the car WITH the damage so you can see how minor it was.

I will NOT entertain ridiculous offers, I don't need the money and I am not in a hurry to sell the car as it is a great runner and has very little rust. 414 531 4552
