Default 99 DX HB from Indiana.

Hey everyone.

I'm new to the Honda scene. Never owned one until August of 2015 when I came across an ad it. $2600 later and she was mine.




She's not as pretty as the picture. The previous 2 owners weren't kind to her. She has multiple dents, the front windshield and hood have an insane amount of rock damage, front bumper is damaged and broken due to the 2nd owner hitting someone on a bike, the fog lights where cut into the bumper.... horribly I might add. They are busted and waiting for warmer weather so I can replace them along with every thing else.

The spoiler was carbon fiber print that was severely faded, so as a cheap quick fix, I painted it.

Multiple things have gone from with it since I got her. Water in the distributor cap, fried spark plug... and now possibly an O2 sensor and a a voltage regulator.

All in all, she's been a good car to me. I've got some things planned for her, mainly a new paint job, so it's a slow process but I'm trying to bring her back from the cosmetic cruelty she has suffered lol

I get lots of looks when they see a girl step out of her hahah.

She has a few spots, mainly from her being side swiped while the previous owner still had her. The hood has some rock damage that you cant see in pictures. So the hood will be replaced along with the windshield

The engine, I'm on sure of. I know it's a 4cylinder 1.6lt, non v-tec. Still the original engine with 149,000 miles.
