Well, I recently picked up this little nugget from it's ORIGINAL owner, it needed some cleaning but it turned out to be a fun car to drive with crazy good gas mileage. It has 216,XXX on the clock and runs great, everything works from the stock Sony radio to the trunk and dome lights. (even the A/C!)
The cons: The drivers fender and door needs to be replaced, somehow a truck backed up into the car with the tail gate down and did some damage, also broke the corner light. Also the drivers seat is torn up around the left bolster pretty good and the windshield has a crack from a rock chip. That's about all the bad though, but for some reason it has a salvaged title and I forgot to ask why. (Idiot move I know)
Anyways I just want to see what's it worth in your opinions, will post up some before and after pics. Note that I have lowered it since I've had it and put some temporary wheels on it off my other car until I can get some blades or something under it. Thanks for checking it out.
This is how I found it, the owner didn't drive it for a year.



How I got it home, with the help of my good friend Brian.


Before first wash...

And after...


Run wild sticker over the CRX logo..lol Don't worry it was removed.

Interior was all like this before cleaning...EWW

And after...



Forgot to mention, I did have to put a fuel pump in it. Just like new!



Before lowering...


After lowering...

So the cons will be fixed, so basically what would you pay for the car after? Thanks again. -Bryan

Looks pretty good. It probably depends on the area and the market, but something like that up here in the Northwest would go for $2000, easy. Maybe closer to $3000 if you got the right buyer.
What's it lowered on? I like that height.

I used some ground control sleeves I've had for a while and some spare Tein springs off an older set of coilovers. The height is perfect for me in my eyes, I've had friends say it's not low enough but I enjoy not smashing it on the road.

I'd say around $2,500 as well. That thing has a pretty decent body, those wheels in that color make it look terrible though in my opinion.
Why not get a molested Crx and leave the unmolested ones alone?
I can never understand peoples mindset "I'm going to buy an original Crx, then I'm going to trick it out". Pisses me off.

I completely agree with that. But if he just does something simple like lower it, I don't think that counts as "tricking it out"
That is pretty clean, the dash looks damn near perfect.

I mean, I have the original springs to go back to stock, and when it comes to modifying it that is about it. I did buy some energy suspension shifter bushings because the oem ones are worn out really bad. I took the 14" Pacers off and sold them for a quick buck because they were not cool at all. The green wheels are temporary until I find more suitable replacements and are def not on there to be impressing anyone. Again though I appreciate all types of opinions.
