$4700? As stated above, what a deal. I'd do it. Many Hondas tick, but it was definitely a good idea to get the car inspected and to have a leak compression test. Those #s look OK, though someone with more experience will likely check in.

If you like it, then buy it, especially at that price.

 

140K is allot of miles but for $4,700 I'd say do it!!

 

Great price.

 

Awesome price. Compressions seems decent being a 10yr old car. Ticking noise...it can be anything but Hondas tend to have some ticking. If it really bothers you, I would look into finding out exactly what the cause is. If everything else checks out, go for it.

 

Jump on it.

 

Considering the absolute bargain-basement price, you should be able to spend a few bucks and have either a mechanic or a Honda dealer give you an estimate to fix whatever caused the smog fail if you don't want to diagnose and fix yourself.

I find it hard to imagine a state being so retarded that it wouldn't allow you to fix a car in order to meet smog requirements even if it failed twice.

At that price, it sounds like a number of folks on the forum would be interested. I'd sure think about i

 

buy it. even if you have to put a grand or two into it its still a good deal.

 

Even if it needs a new engine buy it..
