i use to have a 88 civic. You can have alot of fun with this car. It was free i repainted it and put a cherry bomb exhaust on it(oh did the people sleeping love it.) Then i played destruction durby with it. Reverse donuts are the shit on ice. Hitting shopping carts @ 25mph was fun. Have you ever seen a civic get 10+ feet off the ground? I did! had the car for about......6 months Sold it to car max for $500 with 250k. In the 6 months i had it Never had the oil change and tranny flushed. Tranny was shot. A head gasket was blown. Control arms bent. CV joints pissing every where. Surprisingly the shocks were fine, lol. oh yea it had a pretty cool sony xplod headunit. lol
