So I was thinking of upgrading to an Si and I as looking around and found this....

cars.com: 2007 Honda Civic Si

I was shocked at first, then sad, because it's probably too good to be true....

I HOPE IT ISN'T! lol

^^^what they said^^^

daryll130 · 04-25-2008, 01:31 PM

I think it's fixed now...

Dar-Dar · 04-25-2008, 01:32 PM

contact the dealer first before doing anything else. if he/she says that the FA5 is really being sold for $16,995 and if u see it in person with the price mark, then hell. that's a steal.

but other than that, its a scam.

Futurepr3 · 04-25-2008, 01:32 PM

cant be true

***maximus20895*** · 04-25-2008, 01:38 PM

what happend? I dont see anything unusual?

Hockeyman8282 · 04-25-2008, 01:40 PM

great deal! check the carfax to be 100%

simplicated1979 · 04-25-2008, 01:43 PM

definitely a great deal....take a mechanic with you to check the car out...

***07BlakBlak*** · 04-25-2008, 02:30 PM

No need to check the car out. Its Honda Certified! Just buy it, NOW! If something was wrong Honda would not have Certified the car, otherwise they are just throwing money down the drain.

daryll130 · 04-25-2008, 02:58 PM

oh man, u guys are getting me excited, I saw the Honda certified also but still seemed too good to be true, I'll check it out this weekend!

daryll130 · 04-25-2008, 03:00 PM

only thing is I wonder why it's so low....there's gotta be a catch right? lol

***SiAzul*** · 04-25-2008, 06:13 PM

thats pretty low, I saw a used coupe with about the same mileage and it was 3k more

If its legit, then good find

Honda certified doesn't mean crap. Still get it checked by a mechanic. If he says everything is ok, go for it :)

Doesn't mean "crap"?
An exhaustive 150-point mechanical and appearance inspection, performed by the dealer, to ensure that each vehicle meets Honda Certified Used Cars standards
Honda-trained technicians scrutinize all major vehicle systems, including brakes, engine, drivetrain, steering, suspension, tires, wheels, exhaust system and vehicle interior and exterior
Dealer technicians recondition any component that does not meet our standards, or replace it with Genuine Honda parts
Up-to-date scheduled maintenance services

oh and they do a carfax vehicle history report

I bet somebody had it for a while and hit the rev limiter one to many times.

Brown_Bear · 04-26-2008, 10:27 AM

hmm...looks like the best deal ever...but i dunno...could it have a salvage title hiding underneath???

, i know it says honda certified...but check it, its worth a shot

daryll130 · 04-27-2008, 07:00 PM

hmm, don't think I'm gonna go check it out, it's like an hour away and when I called I kept asking them if that was the correct price and they wouldn't give me a yes.....then they kept telling me to hurry down because there was 3 other people that were gonna go look at it that day.....I have a feeling If I go there they're just gonna tell me the car was already sold then just try n sell me some other car or something....

splew · 04-27-2008, 07:42 PM

It may have been wrecked, check the carfax report. $16,000 is way below the suggested retail price for a 4dr Si with only 10,000 miles.
