$999 · Honda Accord beater

It is a beater and cosmetically even that doesn't quite do it justice. The car looks like crap but it only has 158k on it and it has been the most reliable car I ever owned. But facts are facts and it is bad, mostly cosmetic and very ugly. The interior is mainly about the seats, they are trashed. If you can pick up some used ones from a wrecker that is half the battle right there. Dash and the floors are all OK and all the power windows, heater, and everything else inside works. Interior ceiling/roof is also bad with scratches on it. It also has several other small mechanical issues like one headlight being out, and the exhaust pipe being broken. I still drove it that way as it is not loud enough to be pulled over, but it is louder than it normally would be. Also the master brake cylinder has a pressure leak that reduces breaking power in very hot weather. I already have a replacement from a wrecker for it, just haven't put it in yet. The tires don't have much tread left on them and one tire has a slow leak. Your typical beater type issues and easy fixes for anyone who knows a little bit about fixing cars. The body is so so with one slightly crinkled fender and fading old paint all round. The motor runs great with no issues and I was driving it right up to this week, when I switched over to my civic because it is a little cheaper on gas and looks much better.
