1987 for $1300
i dont know if thats a good deal or not but i mean, any time i get a car that runs for 1300 bucks im gonna call it a good deal haha

its got 200,000 miles on the body but only 60K on the engine. its also an Si if that makes any difference in a CRX lol

I dont know hondas that well.

Hell yeah man! I had a '86 SI, blue one. GREAT Condition, had 323k miles. Ran GREAT. Only bad parts were the seats. I got it for $550 from a dealership.

REALLY fun cars, man. Great pick up.

For $1300 you could find something alittle newer. $1300 for a 87' isn't really that great of a deal unless its super clean. I guess 60k on the motor does help some. If I were you, I think I'd hold off for just alittle while and find something alittle better in the same price range.

thanks, the only thing wrong with this one, other than the cracked fender, which is apparently a decently cheap fix, is that the seats are far beyond shitty...but they come with uber gay purple flowery seat covers haha

Anyway, Im going to try and make this car look respectable, nothing outstanding or head turning, just not a POS...the rims dont match the car, so im gonna paint them and maybe fix the top where the paint is fading...other than that im gonna leave it the way it is until i finish my Mustang. Then i may end up lookin at fiddling with the engine later...

QFT.

But its your money, lol.

$800 is a better price. Anyways, If you have any questions about Hondas, pm me. I don't know everything, but I knew a few things. :goodjob:

Wait, what color is this car and where you picking it up from? Sounds EXACTLY like my old one, but it had many more miles, many more lol.

Hey, more power to you man. I'm not trying to change your mind or anything. They can be really nice cars if you put alittle time in them. Plus, that generation doesn't get alot of attention or not as much as the 2nd gen crx's.

I love the 2nd gen CRX's. I used to have one years ago. A really good site for them is RedPepperRacing.com. I was looking at getting another not too long ago but I already have 3 EF hatches and a EF crx (and the Element and 59 truck....)
