Yep its true. I only paid $200 for it. It is fairly clean. It has alot of little door dings. The hood, front fenders, and doors are pretty bad. I already put a new hood on it, new doors are in the garage, and fenders are in the mail. As soon as I get it all in and together I am going to paint it. Gonna keep it as stock as possible. The factory heat and air work. Just need some little interior pieces and carpet and it will be a good daily beater. Anywho..

Sorry for the crappy cell phone pics but its faster than pulling out the nice one!

I just don't understand you Honda guys and your fascination for that thing. You bought a $200 car. Thats all I see. Wanting to keep your $200 car stock baffles me even more. I mean, I can justify someones interest in that thing if they were going to make it fly, per say... but to praise it for the busted up piece of metal it is.... whoa.

Regardless, good luck with... it. :goodjob:

Dude, he got it to be a DD. Now he can use all the money he saved to make his project car (if he has one) even better. Read much?

Way to be a dick and talk shit about somebody for doing what they want with their car/money.

EDIT: nice find, and it already looks a whole lot better than when you got it!

Hey cupcake, don't be a little girl. It's pretty obvious by my post that I don't understand the fascination many members have with that car, thus made to prompt replies so that I (and others) can see it through your eyes, per say. Comprehend much?

I drive a Ford Taurus and am crazy about it. Many on here wouldn't understand it but I'd happily explain why I am all about it so others can see my p.o.v. and learn from it. See where I'm going with this?

Out of my thread is where your going with this! Thanks for the free bumpage!

Fenders should be coming in soon and I have acquired a minty fresh set of MUGEN M5'sfor it. Not to be mistaken for the MR5. Anywho.. just need to finish up the interior and a drop and where golden

I love all cars must mostly European ones. I'm not a "Honda guy..." as you say. I would love one of these. Don't be so close minded and stereotypical and people won't take offense. 30+ MPG, perfectly reliable and even somewhat quick/fun to drive DD that you don't have to care about at all for $200..that's awesome.

Updates for the last week.

I finish scrapping all the old purple tint off the passenger window. I painted the valvecover and exhaust heat shield. Put on some secret squirrel suspension to get an idea of exactley how low I want it to be. Its almost right except for the fact that I have to roll the fenders and what not. Installed my Mugen M5's with 205/50/15 Advan Neova! Ballin ass grip! Anywho.. Got alot of plans for it in the future but for the next month or so she will be parked in order to install the new fenders and doors. Thanks for looking!

I have the stock 14" CRX SI wheels for sale with new tires as well. PM Me if interested! THanks for looking. Just need to get my body parts on as well as my lip and edm rear spoiler, seats, and a single cam vtec swap and I am golden!

took the drivers fender off today and replaced the driver door with the new door. Now I have to do the same to the other side. As soon as the title comes back and I can afford the new fenders it will be off to paint!
