Default Bought a new car last night. White 1990 Honda CRX Si.

As some of you may or may not know, I've been looking for a clean 88-91 CRX w/AC for my stereo shop. I already own a '88 HF, but honestly it's a little beat. Plus, it doesn't have A/C. Anyways, as you know it's nearly impossible to find a clean CRX. But I think I found it.

Last night I saw this car online and bought it this morning. It met everything I was looking for. It's very clean, inside and out. The paint job is fairly new. I love the condition of the interior. Runs like a champ. Bought it for $2,000.

1990 Honda CRX Si w/211,000 miles.

So, I hired a professional to take some pictures of it. Here is the entire shoot.

You paid someone to take those pics??? I hope it was cheap I could do better with my phone. Should have done some photoshoped graphics or atleast some ghost image shots.


Aside from that I'm not liking the repaint, the previous owner should have kept the 2-tone paint instead of just painting over the black trim. Also I spot some parts that are miss matched!

88-89 driverside headlight and corner light, 88-89 front bumper instead of 90-91 front bumper.



That said cars body does look clean, I'm jealous of the interrior.

I noticed the mis-matched parts too. This car was in a front end collision. That's why there is the wrong year parts.

you could have either added a "lol" or a couple periods and the sarcasm would have been understood. tone is a difficult thing to get across via the interwebz. leave ohi'a alone alright lol. atleast we don't have stupid emissions to deal with. you go right ahead and enjoy all that chicken *hit bull*hit lol.

Sell those wheels and you'll definitely be close to a JDM front end.
