1989 Honda CRX Si review from North America

Aside from a muffler replacement and some brake pads, the only thing I did to the car was replace the clutch around 170,000 km.

This was my first car that I used as a daily driver. I bought it from a girl who was traveling. It was parked in here parents driveway for a year and she needed money. I paid $3,800 for the car when it was 10 years old with 144,000 km. Not bad. The car was in excellent condition. Bone stock with a flawless interior and only miner scratches on the body.

I used the car to go to and from school which was about 30km (20 miles) in each direction. I regularly put on 500 + km (300 miles) every week. I put the recommended premium gas in it, when it cost less than half of what it costs now, and that was my only expense. My mom had a 93 DX hatch back with the 1.5 motor, my CRX ran circles around that thing. It was crazy how much more performance there was. 108 HP moving 2000 lbs, not too bad. I did a lot of road trips one summer and the car easily cruised at 170 km/h (105 mph). I sold it 2 1/2 years later for $3,500 and about 60,000 km more.

You will never be able to find an untouched ex. these days but who know, there might be an old lady with a 91 Si in here garage with 50,000km.....
