Good point.
Well, the more miles and the less that I pay for it, the more comfortable I will feel modifying it, right?

My take is that the more owners the more problems there must be. If I got a good car why get rid of it. At 200k the original owner is probably sick of it and afraid that its time is short. They can go 300k if maintained and 1 owner probably has maintenance records which are a big plus.

Sick of a Civic?! I ask why they are selling the car, but the one had the made-up story as he tried to resell a salvage title.
Records are definitely good.

I have not called on any for a week or two, but it will be the first thing that I do after I finish finals.

I just wanted to interrupt my studies long enough to get phone numbers so that I could call the owners after my final. The single-owner one in the next city is already sold, but the first three that I posted are still up:
Black, a minor dent with some rust, 172,000 miles for $2,700.
Red with a black hood, which has been up for three weeks, and the owner just brought down the price from $3,500 to $3,300, 154,000 miles.
The red one, three hours away, 192,000 miles for $2,850
One was posted yesterday, but I had logged out of my e-mail. Black, miles not given, $3,200.
So, the silver HXes go faily quickly in Arizona...
Can I shrink-wrap a car white?

The silver car with the salvage title that I almost bought is still up, but for some reason did not show up in my search. The guy brought down the price to $3,000.

That sounds like a great deal. I think that I did okay on my last final today, except for the entire section that was not on the study guide.
Now I am hoping for a B.
I have a week and a half before summer school starts. I plan on having both textbooks read and outlined before then.
I cannot afford to earn Cs--not even Bs!
So, this car is out of the question: honda civic hx for sale

I finished with a C, a C+, and two Bs. Non-students here tell me that is good, but I try to explain grad school. I am very excited because one of my summer classes is with the professor that taught both of the classes in which I earned a C, but I have almost finished reading the textbook and I will do more after I move today.
I think the guy with the salvage title--there are actually a couple, but the one that I attempted to purchase, took down his posting, and put up a new one with a different picture and "theft restored." He also brought down the price a hundred dollars.
At least he is being honest now.
All of the cars that I have listed, except the one that I already mentioned sold, are still listed.
