EM1 is the last Civic that still rides on wishbones at all 4 corners. The B16A2 is also one of the last awesome classic Honda engines that you have to have driven to appreciate how good it is.

No offence to the Mazda3, but as good driving a car as it may be, it doesn't hold a candle to the EM1 in terms of fun factor.

But yes, $6500 is definitely on the high side. The condition seems to be excellent from the way the pictures look, but I think the buyer is fishing for someone willing to pay a bit more to appreciate the car for what it is. I'm not sure if a buyer like that would exist for this car, but I guess we will see.
