Well I haven't heard back from him in a week. I might be going to look at a 96 civic ex with 200k for trade. He redid bearings, new rotors, breaks, eater pump, distributor, radiator, head gasket, o2 sensor, hubs, new bumper, and no rust. Just needs a speed sensor. He says it grinds a little going into third, but he will include and extra transmission. I can't tell if its black or green from the picture though.

Interesting...
Why would you trade for something that has 200K+ miles.. you thought this car had problems, wait until you get one with 200K+ miles.
I bought a civic with 205k the only things that I've fixed is a new radiator and the distributor o ring. It needs an oil pan gasket, but it barely leaks, other than that there are no problems.
It looked good, but I asked the guy if were ,meeting up and he said no. Wtf? He just said he would on Facebook last night, then I go to text him this morning and he says no. Stupid people.

He was probably drunk then sobered up this morning...
yeah f**k cars with over 200k, compression test it before you buy it! lol
Well apparently wherever u guys are people are a bit better at maintaining hondas. My car had over 200k on it when I bought it and it had a blown head gasket a month later since they were kind enough to run barsleak in it before selling it to me. Same thing with the other 3 Hondas around me that we're purchased with over 200k. One has a rebuilt engine now, one has a d15b1 with a b7 cam and intake manifold to replace the b7 that was burning a quart I oil a week. An the other is waiting on a new head gasket soon. Not sayin every Honda over 200k is gonna be having some issues soon but I have yet to have any luck with buying one that way lol. Though they all do pass emissions tests like that which is pretty amazing haha
Just make sure u buy it stock from an older adult would be my suggestion.
That's how I bought mine, only 2 adults owned mine before me.
mine has 200k, runs perfect, no lights, and it doesnt even burn oil. needs none between changes
but its all stock and owned by older adults before me, i also have all the previous service records
