Honda has about 46,000 mi
Acura has 66,000 mi
Thinking about if I should trade a new slow car for an old faster one.
This Acura is priced at 16,300 at a dealer... seems like a lot for a 10 year old car but it has low miles and it's a rare find. Looks pretty clean on the pics. Love the look of the 10th gen but that's about it. I just want something more fun. Idk just an idea I had. It seems kinda crazy to trade something so new for something so old but I mean.. I feel like in the long run the Type-S will hold it's value better. Especially since my car will most likely depreciate in value way more. It's just a nothing special regular civic. Acura already has the K20 engine in it so im sure if I wanted to I could do some real mods with it...It's a bit outdated but seems like a great platform to start. idk how much should one pay for this Acura?
I mean it's got 201 hp. Pretty close to the hp of todays si.
I dont see any good ones on craigslist.. It's either not a type-s or its got high miles or theres something wrong or seller did way too many things with it it just looks sketchy.
Age may be a big difference between the two but the miles are not too far off from each other. Really just leaning toward the fact that the Acura is just more expensive than it should be idk. Maybe I'll just be a responsible little boy and just save up like 6-8k and be patient and wait to find a good low mile, stock, clean one.
idk man. Thoughts?
