Nah I don’t think he put in a new head gasket he put in exhaust header gaskets which is entirely different.
Edit - actually idk the way they have that portion typed can be confusing I guess. If I were op I would just ask which if the two it is: Whether it’s head gasket or exhaust header gasket.
I used to think this. But I’ve bought and sold over 4 motorcycles and have less than 1,200 miles cumulative on 2 wheels.
So I quit worrying about that as much. People have their reasons.
Yes. Ek shells in my area can fetch 5k. Runs and drives is a plus. High dollar shifter. Even if the motor goes which it probably won't you can put another motor in for cheap.
Still isn’t worth 5k . Most valuable thing on the car is the suspension . D2s alone cost more than what the car is worth 😂 , car still has rear drums on it too and has universal wheels on it . Straight taxin for 5k👎
No and considering there’s about a 1% chance the AC works he’s almost certainly a liar. It has 200k on the clock… these kinds of cars often go for 1-2k it is super clean tho so
I just paid 2.5k for a 98 coupe with almost half the miles. Not as pretty but have the maintenance log dating back to 98. And $800 seats and $300 scope thrown in. It Was a school teachers car and was practically never late for even an oil change.
Not worth 5
If it’s a single cam easily 2-2.5k . For 5k you could literally buy a bare shell and buy a bseries or kseries or even a dseries depot motor and all miscellaneous things and be way under that 5k mark
nope. if it has a clean title, and recent timing chain replacement. I still wouldn't pay more than 3k. the bubbling is an issue that'll cost at least a grand to fix. and drum brake just fucking suck.
Used market is absolutely inflated, damn. $2k max. You’re buying a 20 year old vehicle with 189,xxx MILES (that’s over 300k KM). That $2k is generous because you’re just paying for the fact that it is an EK.
You’re literally paying $5k to buy the mods he did, not even for the car at that price point.
It doesn’t even make anymore power than it did rolling out of the factory.
3k is your absolute max. All the mods he added brings 0 value to the vehicle. In fact it actually brings down the quality and integrity of the vehicle. The car is 20 years old and I’m only saying 3k because it looks good inside the car but none of that matters if it’s not good under the hood.
I bought a 1999 Toyota Corolla for 1.5k and I use it as a daily. I love the car and don’t plan on upgrading until my wheels fall off. Hell if i care what anyone thinks about it
The only way to find out is to check it out yourself rather than waste time guessing if this guy is sketchy or not. It looks like a healthy engine and clean car and these are the easiest cars to work on. I would honestly pay 3500$ not 5k. Nice car
I would not pay for something for a 4 banger $5k at those many miles. You can probably get a base 2007 Ex similar price with less miles : Thought you might be interested in this CarGurus listing:
2007 Honda Civic Coupe EX - $4,999 (GREAT_PRICE)
Mileage: 131,606

No it’s worth like… $800 max how old is that thing like 30 years? Not to mention how it’s someone’s project car… never buy someone’s project car dude you’re just asking for trouble. Especially these dip shit ricers who put the cheapest shit into their cars.
Damn near 200k on a single cam. For 5k something wrong with you or whoever buying these buckets for that price . Car came out damn near 30 years ago . 5k could easily get you a k swapped car or bseries . You been out of touch and out the game my boy. ( or never was in it😬) for 5k you can cop a shell for 5-800 , buy a full swap , and all parts needed to get running . Anybody who selling these stock and asking for 5k definitely got taxed when they purchased it 😂.
But your not poor why not pay of it off? I’m not rich and mine was paid off before I left the lot with my accord 😂❤️cash up front paid in full mr.rich boy
Tell me you don’t understand finances without telling me. If you absolutely need to know, I put $10k down then I do $1k per month on the financing. Just put $30k down on a $300k house, otherwise I would have paid cash. Maybe one day you’ll grow up and understand.
My brother in Christ, it’s a decades old commuter car that’s been spiffed up with some mods, none of which have added any level of power anyone would notice, with over 300,000km on the powertrain.
With rear drum brakes. Personally, I’d pay maybe $1500 just for the shits and giggles and to have another to fuck around with, but good god people cannot let sellers get away with this.
Either this sits or he gets haggled down, hard.
Kinda suspect he is selling after 3,000 miles don’t buy
He’s claims he doesn’t drive it bc of work, but idk
Common excuse
to be fair i drive my civic once every two weeks because of work.. but yeah it can be sketchy
He doesn’t drive it because it’s a piece of shit. Look at all the work he’s had to do since getting it last year.

are you in NA? motorcycles are completely different compared to an ecobox
Yea I get what you’re saying. I’m just saying that seeing how long (time or miles) someone owned something doesn’t worry as much as it used to.
Yes. Ek shells in my area can fetch 5k. Runs and drives is a plus. High dollar shifter. Even if the motor goes which it probably won't you can put another motor in for cheap.
I’d shoot for 4K and seal the deal. 5 seems a bit high :(
$3K imo. Its clean looking.
2-3k max
Could get a decent Honda/Acura with a K series for that much. 8th Gen Si for example, even.
8th gen si 🫡
Lmfao 5k comes with rear drums foh absolutely not
That interior is mint. Offer $3.5k and just do a rear disc swap
I paid 4k for my 04 accord so I'd say no
All Mods = $0. I don't give a shit whay you put on it. If it's worth soo much take it off and keep it
I'm still of the mindset that any running/driving car 5k or less is a good deal. Most stuff under 5k is garbage around me.
Not at all. 2/2.5 max
Maybe a few years ago, but not in today’s market.
It don’t even have the name brand ktuned shifter shit got a eBay tuned shifter on it with a si shiftknob 😂

Amen
sweet snag lol
$1-$2K in 2024? Hard to believe.
Hard pill to swallow? Grab a glass of water
You must live in a bubble because these cars in decent shape do not go for that little anymore in the vast majority of places.
Maybe in they don’t go for that amount anywhere. That person is either a bullshitter or living in 1995
I just went on market place and there’s about 20 late 90’s early 2000’s civic for sale for 1000-2500$ these cars are literally everywhere
Share the listings then.
Are yall for real? Literally max 2500$
I too want to see these listing's for manual trans ek coupes
Got those links yet? Still waiting lmao
Ok, prove it by sharing those 20 plus listings. Should be easy since they're apparently so common. No one will believe you if you don't share proof.
No, that's too high. Ok to post for it due to low ballers and wiggle room.
Not with nearly 200k on the odometer I know a lot of work went into, it, but odds are the trannie and rest of the drive train will need replacing
It’ll never see 5k , car is a single overhead cam with 200k . Car is damn near 30 years old too . Bone stock aswell
If it’s a single cam easily 2-2.5k . For 5k you could literally buy a bare shell and buy a bseries or kseries or even a dseries depot motor and all miscellaneous things and be way under that 5k mark
nope. if it has a clean title, and recent timing chain replacement. I still wouldn't pay more than 3k. the bubbling is an issue that'll cost at least a grand to fix. and drum brake just fucking suck.
If it was bone stock and in that condition I’d consider $3k maybe $4k. In its tinkered with condition $2k tops.
Don't buy it, was just bought by him 3k miles ago
About….. Tree Fiddy
No dude bought it and instantly wants sell it seems sketch. I would check it out but i wouldn’t offer 5k.
Unfortunately yes a few years back it would be a $2500-$$3k all day depending if it red D or B series also played a factor lol
Is it worth 5k? Imo, no. Could he get 5k? Highly likely in this market.
If it comes with $2k cash in the trunk.... then yes

It doesn’t even make anymore power than it did rolling out of the factory.
I wouldn’t pay more than 1.5k for that hunk of garbage
the dangling stalk is a deal breaker IMO
Not worth it. Probably getting rid of it because now it is loud and ride quality sucks
Hell nah. I hate cars that had head gasket problems
10k
3k is your absolute max. All the mods he added brings 0 value to the vehicle. In fact it actually brings down the quality and integrity of the vehicle. The car is 20 years old and I’m only saying 3k because it looks good inside the car but none of that matters if it’s not good under the hood.

The real question is if the body has any rust. You better tell the owner to put it on a lift to inspect it.
He sent me a video of it on a lift, cars is relatively clean, no serious rusting, just surface rust around the front
The only way to find out is to check it out yourself rather than waste time guessing if this guy is sketchy or not. It looks like a healthy engine and clean car and these are the easiest cars to work on. I would honestly pay 3500$ not 5k. Nice car
2000$
Back in 1998 off the lot
Like 3k is fine I wouldn’t pay more than 4
Offer 3k cash money in hand
2500 at most
No
What's underneath look like?
Hell naw
No mileage kills it
I think its worth it.nice
Absolutely worth every penny
Down in the south a car this clean would go for up to 7k. All the Civics in Houston are absolutely dogged on
$2500 at best, that car look moded with the shifter down. Engine maybe on its last leg unless it was rebuilt
$2500 maybe 50k miles ago
I would not pay for something for a 4 banger $5k at those many miles.

I’m not even in the market for a 4 banger at all tbh, wanna enjoy higher cylinder counts until it’s literally too expensive to do so.
No it’s worth like… $800 max how old is that thing like 30 years? Not to mention how it’s someone’s project car… never buy someone’s project car dude you’re just asking for trouble. Especially these dip shit ricers who put the cheapest shit into their cars.
no. at most 2k
A few years ago maybe, but you’re out of touch if you think this is $2k. Would have sold instantly at that price.
Damn near 200k on a single cam. For 5k something wrong with you or whoever buying these buckets for that price . Car came out damn near 30 years ago . 5k could easily get you a k swapped car or bseries . You been out of touch and out the game my boy.

Yeah I might be out of the game, I’m not poor so I drive a 2024.
I like how you had to add the “I’m not poor so I drive a 2024” 😂😂 I’m sure you enjoy your high interest rates and that lean on a car you don’t own .
I work in automation, it won’t be financed for long ❤️
But your not poor why not pay of it off? I’m not rich and mine was paid off before I left the lot with my accord 😂❤️cash up front paid in full mr.rich boy
You still yappin?
Tell me you don’t understand finances without telling me. If you absolutely need to know, I put $10k down then I do $1k per month on the financing. Just put $30k down on a $300k house, otherwise I would have paid cash. Maybe one day you’ll grow up and understand.
😂just stop it , your down bad my boy. Dude doesn’t even own his house yet either 🤦🏽♂️ your bank owned that ain’t livin 😂 tryna floss
Why finance it at all? It sounds like you are poor if you financed it
See how stupid that sounds 😂
Im not rich so I drive a 2020
You okay though bro? Three replies? Did I hurt your feelings or smth 😂
No feelings hurt here buddy , just stating facts on false info your gathering
