So I got the CRX. I’ll have pics up tomorrow or the next day. the paint is wicked nice. no rust visible anywherre. all the rust was filled in with fiberglass and it was repainted OEM yellow. normailly I wouldn’t be happy about the color, but it has enough black trim to give a good contrast. the rims are amazing. stock CRX rims, but they’re in like new condition. no curb rash or anything. not even brake dust. it also came with a spare set of wheels with snows. the guy I bought it from works at an auto parts stor, so I have receipts for a lifetime warranty on: all rotors, all brake pads, all struts, water pump, alternator, and exhaust system. not a bad deal. he already gave me a replacement muffler since the one on there was on its way out. I was working on putting on the new one and the front cat popped apart. so I give the guy a call and he just gave me a new one! talk about a hook-up. I really can’t complain. I think it’ll pass inspection now at least.

it’s a ton of fun to drive. everything works in the cabin. it’s a little spartan. no AC, no power windows or locks. no pwer steering either. I didn’t liek the idea of that at first, but I kinda like driving it like that. the steering response is so quick. I don;t like the no AC, but I’ll live. I’m a New Englandah. I only use it a few months outa the year anyways. and if I drop in a B18 or something, I can always hook up an AC system. it handles amazingly. it weighs nothing, so it just kinda eases into corners. even with the blown struts. I can see why people love these little things. it’s still a little rough to admit I own a civic and like it. I just tell myself “It’s a CRX.. it’s not quite a civic.”
