This car is my daily driver and is in excellent mechanical
condition.I bought it in January of 2011 and have driven it for work
only since then..It has 129K+ miles. I added the wheels and replaced the
upper control arms on the rear due to the factory arms being out of
spec(there was a Honda TSB). I have the factory steel wheels and wheel
covers, also. The tires are fairly new(about 10K miles) and it has a
K&N filter in the stock airbox. I have a Hypertech tuner for it and
have run the economy tune to get an average of 36 mpg. The AC dryer and
dessicant was replaced last year and it blows 42 degree air. I replaced the battery with an 8 year Autozone Gold top last fall.The interior is in excellent condition. I
change the oil at 5K mile intervals and it has been run on Mobil 1
exclusively since I bought it. There are a couple of spots where the
clear coat has peeled on the roof and hood and the tint on the rear
window needs to be replaced. KBB is $7085 with 130K miles. I will take
$6500 from someone in the club--this is a perfect first car. Its going
on CL this weekend at $6800.You wont find a tighter 2006 model. I don't
need to sell it, but the wife wants me to get a 4 door that we can use
also as a family car. I would consider trading up to a 4 door Honda or
Toyota in the 2008-2011 year range with under 100K miles.
