Hey everybody! My name is Brian, i am a new proud owner of a 1987 Honda crx Si.

I work at a Honda dealer ship in Northern California as a lube-tech and one day this lady named Diane came by for service..

One of our service writers had talked to her in the past and made an offer on her car, she wasn't considering selling the car at the time but she came back and wanted to see if the guy was still interested. he low balls an offer, she declined it, and i made a counter offer before she could post an ad on Craigslist. 

 

Turns out shes the original owner of the car.

128k miles

Clear title

garaged from till 2003

Exterior of the car was re painted

i was planning on buying another set from walmart or something and just keep these for certain occasions. ill defiantly take good care of these mats.

My plan? really focused on getting the car running reliable..most likely will be doing a full tune up and fix some oil leaks.

Registration & Insurance

 

after that..i know its suspension upgrades and some Mugen wheels

Now that is the nicest stock crx i have even seen nice work on grabbing it.

Thank you! i sold my 97 civic just to buy it lol

 

very well done. enjoy it

smokin' condition !  :)

to answer your question, your seats should be black so they've been replaced by blue ones (we had 2 colors of interior)

not really, but the idea could seduce me, let me know when you're at that point & I'll see if I have the opportunity to get 'em :)
