Default FS - MI: 1995 Civic DX Coupe $200

1995 Black Honda Civic DX Coupe
137k Miles on speedometer - However, I bought it broken from a young guy 5-6 years ago. I'd assume 200k+
Condition - Rough (Wouldn't use it for anything other than the motor or a parts car)
Estimated Miles I added - 40,000
Title - Yes, not salvage
Lein - No
Location - West Michigan

Good - Surprisingly reliable and the engine continues to start and run with no known issues. In 5-6 years only the thermostat, radiator, and brake MC went out. Most parts are rust free and no parts are missing that I'm aware of. The suspension doesn't have any clunks or chunks and runs fairly smoothly for what it is. Clutch seems to grab well. Comes with decent Bridgestone Blizzaks and 4 other decent all seasons, new steelies purchased around 2013.
Bad - This would be FAR too long of a list, but here's a quick overview. RUST. The driver's seat is no longer a seat, but a rocking chair that would most likely result in an individual becoming Superman in an accident with a chair strapped to them. The car was purchased to be used as a daily while I drove my s2k on nicer days 5-6 years back. The previous owner was a young man who liked to paint things red, had at least 25 spoilers, removed the AC, and had GIANT 18" rims.
  • Rust everywhere
  • Brakes are super soft
  • CEL is on (bulb removed?)
  • Holes in the trunk from tons of spoilers (previous owner)
  • Hasn't been used for about a year (turned on and driven around the block to keep things alive though)
  • Hood latch is broken
  • Plastidip all over the outside that was used to cover rust
  • Exhaust leaks
The car currently runs and I turn it on a few times a month and drive it around the block. The car is no longer used due to the condition, mainly due to the driver's seat being completed rusted out on the 3/4 bolts (it's a rocking chair and not safe to drive). I will be junking this car by the end of March before registration is due for renewal. I figured I'd post it on here in case anyone is in need of a few parts, a running engine, or willing to fix it up enough to drive it.

I will not allow any test drives as the vehicle is not safe to operate on streets with the driver seat condition. The car will need to be towed due to the condition and I will require a release of liability be signed.





Thank you!

Ha, yes agreed. I've always been curious on the history of the car. Never honestly bothered to dig into it. I used it as a winter beater for years with no issues for the small amount I paid for it, cant complain.

Willing to transport the car within a reasonable distance in West Michigan, if needed.
