I never found all the pieces of the battery casing. I am so thankful no one including myself got hurt. As soon as I hit the key the battery instantaneously exploded like a bomb under the hood. It did leave me stranded one real hot summer night when I pulled into a parking spot at my daughters’ school, turned the car off and immediately started it back up.
#Honda crx 4 1988 mpg driver
It’s my daily driver and has never left me stranded one day. The original owner took exceptional care of the car and when I bought it in 2005 with 142K on it, I took over where he left off.
I am the 2nd owner of a ’97 Accord EX sedan with the VTEC 5-speed and it is about to turn over 305K on all the original running gear.
#Honda crx 4 1988 mpg manual
I mean oil and filter changes every 3K and manual transmission gear oil every 40K plus scheduled timing belt and water pump replacements. That motor has many miles left in it if “all” three owners, especially the first one, were meticulous with the maintenance and I’m not talking about those big services at 30K and 60K where Honda techs mostly went around and checked and tightened items.
They also say that they’re getting 42mpg on the highway which is a little low for this car and I wonder if it has to do with the combination of the bigger wheels and high miles? Do you care about mpg at all or would you use this car just for the fun of driving it in traffic? The owner mentions that this car “runs great, does not smoke, only burns 1/2qt oil between oil changes, does not leave oil spots on ground.” Most people have much newer cars with 200,000 fewer miles on them that use more oil than that. Since this is the third owner, I’m guessing that the original wheels are long gone by now bummer. The tail lights and wheels aren’t stock, but the stock tail lights come with the car. I added some larger steel wheels to the car and it can ashame most sports cars on the road. The engine is only 63 hp, but in a 2,000 lb car it still moves pretty quick. The dash looks crack-free but there is no mention of the interior at all. Fun to drive and I enjoy the SUV slalom on the way to work while getting 40+ mpg. A missing lighter is a good thing in my world, that probably means a non-smoker and this owner just uses it to charge their cell phone. Plus, this one would be even more fun to drive with the Honda steering wheel cover on it! Ok, maybe not, but at least it’s protecting the top of the wheel from sun damage. These are fun cars to drive, especially with a 5-speed such as on this car. I would want to know if the timing belt has been changed recently and if not I would do that faster than I could fill this Honda’s 12-gallon gas tank. Since my Subaru currently has over 338,000 miles on it that doesn’t even cause me to blink. The engine is an 8-valve 1,493cc 4-cylinder and even though this one gets high mpg it also has high miles on it, with a listed 299,155 on the odometer. This car is noted for not just being a reliable Honda, but also for being an HF, or, a high-fuel-efficiency model. This 1,820 pound, 62hp wonder is the first year of a redesign for the CRX and it’s in great condition. You could run 1,373 gallons of gas through this car before you would spend another $2,950 on it given its EPA rating. This blue shoe is found in “Gold Country”, California here on craigslist with an asking price of $2,950. Cheap car, great gas mileage and great looking if plan to fix up.This is a 1988 Honda CRX HF in Superior Blue Metallic. I wish I still had the car and I would definitely recommend it to anyone. It still pulls, and it hogs the ground and it is such a light car that it can take any car on the road! But.
Sooner or later, it was mine for only $1800. Right when I was about to buy a cheap car, my brother in law told me about the crx (which he had sold to his friend Chris). So after dealing with a 1986 Celica Gt-s, I wanted a reliable car, but I had a tight budget. He had a swapped engine which was an Integra Ls.
I remember when I was 14 years old, I used to ride in the back of my brother in law's crx (which I own now) and I just fell in love with the car. I accidentally hit the curb while backing up, but either than that, if you take care of it real well, nothing really bad will happen to it.Īnd of course, the typical maintenance, like brake pads were also replaced. It didn't break, I just wanted to make sure it wouldn't if I was driving.ĭistributor broke when I first got the car. When I first got the car, the alternator was bad, so the guy that owned it, subtracted the original amount so that I can fix the alternator.
