Got a buddy trading in a 2002 RSX premium with 70k on it. He has an extended warranty to 120k. Fully loaded with leather, has new tires, new brakes.
The front right quarter panel is dented in and the front bumper is loose from a minor accident over a year ago. He's driven it like that ever since. He's getting dinged on the trade-in. You'd have to pay both taxes, get it fixed, get a safety but it's a smokin' deal. He has he replacement parts in the trunk. A good body shop could do the repair for about $2000. Lesson? Don't try and trade-in a car with an unfixed minor accident...lol...
