The Official EF Discussion Thread
It's not bad, just some quarter rust because it had those stupid rubber strips on the wheel wells for 20 years. The interior is MINT. Not even any bolster wear on the seats.
It's just a loaner, plus the sedan owns my heart.
You. Are. Crazy.
Buahahaha. I had the OEM metal hood fly up on my '89 Y-49 and destroy my windshield doing about 80mph.

Keep it...just watch out for falling trees,rocks,cars,pianos,planes,weather balloons,tool boxes,appliances,toilets etc.
And park it at the far end of every parking lot.
Enjoy y49 ownership

"19 year old male passed away Friday night in Moore, OK after his Y-49 CRX's hood blew up, splashed oil on the windshield and then caught fire causing the car to careen down a hill full of land mines."

Gotta say, out of all the Honda's there (it was a honda/acura only event) the EF guys were the best, offering advice back and forth, even when a guy broke on the track, 4 of us waiting to make our runs hoped out of our cars and were shooting the ****, helping each other with stuff, good people. The EG/EK guys just sat with a pissed off face. Happy to be in the EF family.
Thanks man!
Here is the temporary daily. For the record, I believe in the Y-49 curse. The lady that owns this car was in a parking garage behind a guy in a huge truck. The guy decided he wanted to reverse and go back for a parking spot so he accelerated in reverse and smashed up the front end.
Driving it brings back some memories. In 2004-2005 I had an '89 Y-49 Si that had been repainted to white, but the curse remained.

Awesome pick up man! why only temporary? Im guessing due to size of car and size of family. Good luck with it, crazy to think we both have had a Y-49 hood fly up on us... If thats not a curse than I dont know what is! I think you'll be fine though... You show it love, it'll love you back! Y-49's have emotions, they need proper handling to scare the ghost's out!
So you're saying the Y-49 curse is like a woman? Treat her well and she'll take car of you, treat her with disrespect and she'll super glue your ******* to your leg in your sleep?
Yes, only temporary because I have to be able to move the kids occasionally. I hope to have a real daily this week. I don't want to rush the swap in the sedan because a lot of the detail stuff I want to do can only be done while the motor is out. I'm going to just suck it up and spend the money on a quality daily so I can take my time on the sedan swap and then keep it garaged once it's finished.
Does anyone in here have free Carfax going right now?
