The Original Owner got screwed and paid over twice Honda's MSRP.

Greetings:

Yeah, wasn't it closer to ~$400? The Aero was a bit more.

I have always read that the Aero's price was $600 new at the dealer... That's an awesome price. Time to build a time machine... The 80's was freaking cooler anyway. Screw this 2000's crap... You can't find a used Aero for less than
$400 these days! S4 Patrick... Want to go back in time with me? I'll bust out my old JAMS shorts...

I never paid more than $300 for any of my Aeros, most less than $200.

Oh and the 60's were so much better than the 80's.
