alright... i'm looking at buying a cheap dd..... right now i have a montero and it is killing me in gas... (i've got a 45min-1hr commute to and from work) a friend has offered me a 95 civic ex. now i do like honda's so i'm not asking "who here likes hondas?"... what i'm wondering is... would you buy it if you were me.... let me list some known issues with the car...

1. no a/c.... (it looks to be all hooked up.. so it may just need a recharge)
2. horrible paint... oxidization s really bad on this thing...
3. minor scratches/dings
4. drivers side window does NOT roll down (passengers does and sunroof works)
5. clutch lets out at the very top...(or grabs whatever you wanna say) so i think it may be going out....
6. when in gear, i can wobble/shake the shifter left/right almost as if it were out of gear..
7. roughly 180xxx miles

now onto the plus...

1.New tires
2. runs just fine(no grinds, pulls well, no leaks that i can see)
3. interior is dirty... but other than that seems to be in great shape
4. 30+ mpg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
5. the price.... $700
6. all electronics work from what i can tell



so again... that's my question... would you buy this as a cheap dd to get away from these terrible gas prices????/is it worth 700???
