obvisously you have never been to an auction, a 98 honda accord is worth more than that in the dealer black book. They don't even have clean title cars at the auction. Please tell me what auctions you are going to, because I go at least twice a week. This car is CLEAN TITLE, w/ 57000 miles. You cannot get a CLEAN title 98 4 door accord at any auction for 3000, I don't care if it had 150000 miles, you would at least pay 5000 for it. I am not asking you I am telling you. This car needs a fender and nothing else. AT 5500 dollars, you put at fender on and paint, no more than 300 dollars, if you pay that then you are paying way too much. 5800 dollars. You cannot find a 98 honda accord 4 door automatic for that price. And the market value brings a minimum of 7600. You can clear almost 2000 with this car, look in your local autotrader, I garantee if I put this car in the trader, which it will go in next friday, I won't have the car for 3 days. Do your homework first, this car needs a fender and is clean title. Honestly, I go to the auctions now only to buy export cars, and out of 500 cars on the list 6 of them might be clean title. And the clean title one is a 1984 deville, or something like that. I also have a 2002 explorer with no damage, nothing wrong clean title, 60000 miles I am asking 13,800 check the books on that one.
