1988 Honda CRX HF review from North America
"After all is said and done, I still love it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Well, since 97, I've replaced a number of things. At 210,000 miles I'm now replacing the engine, which for a car this old and this many miles... is expected.
General comments?
I like it overall, it's small, quick... but Honda overlooked some small details, such as; AC/heater console cracking in the center and the rear hatch springs are crappy.
It's an agile car, and a gas saver.
Oh, and the seals in the rear hatch leak.
