Re: did i over pay?
are you happy with it? then it doesn't matter. i have learned before that if you dwell on how much you paid for something, then it loses its mystique.
on a side note, are you sure it's a cx and not a vx? those are vx rims.

It's most likely a CX with VX rims. No tachometer and no front lip. I say that a good buy. It already come with the now rare USDM audio console. That's a plus.

Definitely good deal...a big thing on the 5th gens is like chewyv said...rust.
You could get a good deal but if you have rust that's alot of unnecessary downtime and extra money spent...no bueno.
I say good pickup.

id say your good. i'll have to spend the difference between yours and what i got mine for to fix my rust. but an unrusted sol in MN is pretty impossible.
boost it and enjoy.

Very true, unless you really spend all your money and can't pay for bills or anything lol. Otherwise just don't worry about it.

x2. That's a USDM console.
It was discontinued because at sometime in the past, Honda decided the demand for these wasn't worth the cost to continue manufacturing them. The '92-95s aren't exactly new cars anymore, thus demand just isn't there for them. So they stopped making them, probably several years ago. Dealers had stock for several years before the last one was sold, sometime last winter, I believe. Now they're going for $$ on eBay. If you want to save money for boost, sell your console...that'll net you $200-300.
