So, like the title says, I'm looking at buying my first Civic. I'm 19 from Memphis and a college freshman looking to save some money. Currently I drive a '00 F-150 V6 5-speed with 28k miles and get 12-14mpg. I wanted to start saving on insurance and gas so I started looking at my friend's '95 DX Sedan. It's got 219K on it, all stock, with the original d15b7 engine. The car runs great and I've driven it. New belts, oil, brake pads and a few other things. No A/C(leaks freon) and some scraps and dents on the driver door and no driver mirror. Driver outside door handle doesn't work along with one of the back inside handles. Needs paint pretty badly, too He's only asking 500 for it, and I think I can talk him and his mom down some. Not sure if I should go for it. I've really wanted an EG Sedan for a while.
Any input?
I should also add that I'm pretty technically capable and can handle a decent of off repair work. Anything I can't handle, my family's mechanic friend can. He worked at a Honda Dealer for years and drove the same model civic.
