Maybe if that was pesos. :)  According to blue book (www.kbb.com), a 1985
Honda Civic Wagon, in fair condition, is worth $905 for a private-party
sale. If you were to trade it in, the value would be significantly less.

That being said, I would guess that a 1985 TV would be worth a lot less
than that.  :)
