Well I got flaked on by the guy with the yellow one, drove 3 hours and he doesn't answer, then tells me 2 hours later he just sold it, then I get a call from his "friend" asking if I want to buy it from him... I'm now starting to look in Georgia and Alabama, seems Florida is full of weirdos

I usually buy and sell pretty close to the Edmunds prices in my town. I also adjust for market conditions using Craig's List as it seems to reflect local prices. Terms and timing also impacts final selling prices, you should be able to knock the price down if you have cash in hand and and close immediately.

condition: paint is in perfect shape, no dings or dents. still in the process of arranging an auto shop to take a look under the hood to run some tests mechanically. might have honda do a pre purchase inspection.

Not necessarily. The guides are just that: guides. Location impacts pricing, as with any thread on this topic. There have been a number of threads speculating on why pricing has been higher than guides in general recently.
