2006 or 2008 Civics over 100K Miles.
This is my first time trying to buy a used car from a dealership and have looked at reviews, consumer reports, KBB, and of course edmunds TMV calculator to figure out pricing. I have even checked the carfax reports of a few cars and have a couple in mind.
The 2006 and 2008 Civics I am looking at are all over 100K miles for around $12000, and have had only one owner per carfax. They seemed to have a consistent maintenance schedules. I didn't see anything about them changing out the AT transmission fluid though. I did see something about required maintenance performed listed.
Is there anything I should be looking out for as well? Are these even good cars to invest in since I am wanting something to last me a long time. I guess I am just looking for general advice since it is my first time going through this process.

A well maintained Civic is just getting started in life with 100,000 miles.
I wold take it to a dealer or a quality Indy shop for a pre purchase inspection if you aren't car savvy.

I submitted a claim to Honda for prorated reimbursement of the replacement tires, but I don't know how much I will receive. I plan to buy a civic again in the future.
