RiceBoysDream,
You certainly got the better end of the deal in this case. You don't mention the mileage on the 98, but it's prolly below 100k. I know that book value for CRXs doesn't matter much, but according to the book, what's your CRX worth? Two grand? A 98 Civic is easily worth four grand.
Who is the guy you're trading with? I have a bridge to unload.
