1989 Honda Civic DX review from North America
"Watch out for me on the Jersey highways!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with the car, yet. Hopefully, it will stay this way for a long time. :)
General comments?
I'm a 20 year old female and love cars. In my 3 years of driving, I've been the proud owner of a Nissan Sentra LXE, an Acura Integra GX, and a Honda Civic LX. My newest toy is the hatchback.
I now own an '89 Civic Hatchback DX and dropped a '94 single v-tech engine into it.
This car runs seriously fast.
It has a new exhaust, intake, and short shifter.
My baby also has a wide-mouth kit, a carbon fiber hood, and euro head and tail lights.
I'm getting her a new paint job, pearl white with black interior.
She's also fitted with 13" GSR Swirly rims in the front and 18" Racing Heart rims in the back.
