Php/MySQL error when searching DB

I have an MySQL error and I cannot figure it out... It was working and now it is not working anymore (I haven't done anything to the database).

Here is the query:

$querySearch = "SELECT * FROM cars WHERE (price >= {$startPrice} AND price <= $endPrice) AND condition = '{$condition}'";

Here is the form:

<h3>Condition:</h3>
<span class="searchRange">
<select name="condition" class="condition">
    <option value="any">Any Condition</option>
    <option value="Brand New">Brand New</option>
    <option value="Near New">Near New</option>
    <option value="Good">Good</option>
    <option value="Ok">Ok</option>
    <option value="Poor">Poor</option>
</select>
</span>

And here is how PHP receives the data:

$condition = mysql_prep($_POST['condition']);

mysql_prep() is a user made function that just takes care of the magic quote stuff.

Anyone see where an error could occur?

Error: Database query failed: You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'condition = 'Near New'' at line 1

Condition is a reserved keyword

Enclose it in backticks.

AND `condition` =
