Please see the condition description above. Trying to be as upfront as possible about the flaws. I plan to add a few more pictures soon of the interior and close ups of the things mentioned in the condition description above. A few more note on the condition in the interest of up front disclosure; it has had paintwork done over the years but not because of accidents; It has been because of paint fade,  chairs are in great condition except there is a bit of a tear in the head rest of the drivers seat. It is inexpensive to replace. The drivers side interior door panel has a small tear in it due to the seat belt head digging into the panel when someone closed it. It could be glued down fairly easily.There is also a small crack in one of the hubcaps. It is not very noticeable. FYI - under the hubcaps it does have the factory red center caps on the wheels. There is oil in the engine compartment. It looks to me like it came from a loose hose at one point and possibly needing to replace the valve gasket at another point (which was done and then redone again recently). Not currently leaking any oil. I don't like to clean out the engine compartment on these because it gets in the distributor cap. However, it would not be all that difficult form someone to do if they wanted to. 

I have loved this car and done all maintenance plus extra things just to take good care of it. Interior, exterior, and mechanically it is in excellent condition. Only reason I am selling it is because it is a two seater and I have decided to get something that has a back seat for my kids. I prefer my cars to be all stock and you will find this one is too. I did put a CD player in it (was a cassette player and I couldn't take that), but as you can see from the pics it is a honda CD player. To go along with this I put high quality speakers in place of the stock speakers and they now sound incredibly good. I also installed a console in between the seats because these things don't have a lot of storage - but that also looks stock. I put some rubber Honda floor mats in there to protect the rather rare stock CRX floor mats that are in like new condition. 


Just so you know, the passenger side rear view mirror is not broken off. The HF edition was designed this way in order to minimize wind resistance and maximize fuel efficiency (HF = high fuel). Honda made several other modifications on this model (as compared o the other models) to increase fuel efficiency.

I know the history of the car and that the regularly scheduled maintenance has been done for it's entire life (which is considerable - it has 330k on it). It looks and drives like it has about a tenth of those miles on it. About 45 thousand miles ago the following regular maintenance was done: timing belt, suspension system, fuel pump, and clutch replaced. The valve adjustment was just done about 5 thousand miles ago (have been done annually since it was purchased new) and I went ahead and replaced the valve gasket then too. Brakes and tires are good all the way around. Other recent (within the last 18 months) maintenance performed includes: front passenger full axle shaft replaced, front passenger upper control arm replaced, master cylinder replaced, radiator replaced, exhaust resonator and resonator pipe replaced, main relay re-soldered, and blower motor replaced. 

Due to the fact that all the regular maintenance has always been kept up the car has been worked over top to bottom to the point of almost having more new parts than it does old. It has been regularly cleaned inside and out and waxed more than once a year. The oil has been changed about every 3500 miles and a full synthetic oil has been used for at least the last 5 years (not sure what the previous owner did). I also use a fuel injector cleaner about every third time I fill up. 

It is my daily driver and I am unafraid to take it on long trips (have made quite a few four and six hour trips in it - one way). I get about 50 miles to the gallon. I commute 30 minutes one way to work (Boonville) and always take my CRX. It does really well in the snow due to how light it is and because it is front wheel drive. Was able to get around pretty easily even in the heaviest of snows we have had the last couple of years. These things just don't quit - even when they have been abused, but particularly when they have been so well cared for. 

Car will not be shipped unless you choose to have it shipped and pay for that independently from this transaction. It is in Columbia, Mo. I may be willing to drive out and meet you somewhere to shorten your drive to pick it up but it depends on the drive, date of pick up, etc.

6/26/14 - UPDATE: AT ABOUT MIDNIGHT THE NIGHT OF THE 26TH I UPDATED THIS POST BY ADDING MORE PICTURES. NOW INCLUDES MORE PICTURES OF THE INTERIOR, IMPERFECTIONS, ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND MANUALS. I took a closer look at the head rests and the good thing is that there is no fabric missing. This means it would be a pretty easy fix with some fabric glue and something to hold the fabric into place. The Civic CRX manual is the original manual from when the car was purchased new on 7-9-90. It has a letter from the dealer inside the manual that discusses the cars emissions control equipment (which was pretty new back then) along with the original owners name and information. I do have a few more pics I could send you if you are wanting to see some more of the engine compartment and interior. Also, be sure to check the vehicle history report above. It has a squeaky clean history.

2023 CES Editors' Picks

Mon, Jan 9 2023

Over the past few years, it has become more and more clear that the Consumer Electronics Show is a car show. And this year that reality is more clear than ever. Not only did established automakers show off seriously important vehicles, but a traditional electronics company brought a car that gives an idea of its intents (with the help of establishment car company). With so many car reveals, we had to rank our favorites. Our picks for this show are entirely electric. Or at least, they are on paper, since many are concepts. Considering the name of the show, it would be a little strange if they weren't. In fact, not only are many of our favorites concepts, they all are save for one. See how they shook out below. VW ID7 camo View 28 Photos 5. Volkswagen ID.7 "The ID.7 definitely got lost in the crowd at CES. That it was camouflaged definitely didn't help, even if that camo was electroluminescent (BMW trumped it big time with its color-changing Dee). Nevertheless, this is a close-to-production hatchback-ed sedan, not unlike today's Arteon, with an extra-long wheelbase courtesy its EV architecture. It should be a solid answer to the Tesla Model 3 and Hyundai Ioniq 6, and even if people obviously prefer SUVs now, VW says there is still a market for sedans. I know I'd probably prefer one." –Senior Editor, West Coast and Reviews, James Riswick Peugeot Inception concept View 12 Photos 4. Peugeot Inception "It's not often that show debuts surprise us. While Peugeot teased the Inception ahead of CES, its unveiling seemed almost incidental. But just look at this thing; it's like an electric French Mustang with someplace important to be. I don't buy into the stupid 'It's not a wheel!' thing that Peugeot CEO Linda Jackson described as providing a video-game-like drive experience, but that bit of silliness aside, this is a really promising design study. Give us more of these and fewer tall boxes, please." –Associate Editor Byron Hurd Afeela prototype from Sony Honda Mobility View 11 Photos 3. Afeela by Sony Honda “Ever since Sony showed off an impressively put-together concept car at CES a few years ago, IÂ’ve been anticipating the companyÂ’s next move. Apparently, that next move is “Afeela.” No, I donÂ’t love the name. The specs from SonyÂ’s original concept car give me hope that this prototype sportback (itÂ’s a hatchback!) will be fun to drive, though.

Honda shifts CR-V production to Canada as UK focuses on Civic

Thu, Apr 2 2015

Honda is reshuffling its global production in a somewhat bizarre way. Under the newly announced plans, the European version of the CR-V will no longer be assembled locally, but the region will become the hub for some Civic production. As part of this new strategy, Honda's Canadian manufacturing operations will become responsible for building the next-gen version of the European CR-V. Once assembled, the popular crossovers will then be exported back across the Atlantic. The investment to make these changes comes from 875 million Canadian dollars ($690 million) already allocated by Honda for expansion there. The current European CR-V (pictured above) is made in Swindon, England, and with that model moving to Canada, the site fulfills the second part of this production shuffle. Honda will invest 200 million pounds ($300 million) there to make the location a global production hub specifically for the next-gen Civic five-door hatchback. The examples made in the UK will be not just for Europe but also will be "exported to key global markets," according to the automaker. Honda now confirms one of those markets to be the US, and a recent rumor suggests the company sending over around 40,000 of them a year. Related Video: HONDA OF CANADA MFG. EXPANDS EXPORT DESTINATIONS WITH EUROPEAN SPEC CR-V ALLISTON, ON (March 30, 2015) – Honda of Canada Mfg. (HCM), a division of Honda Canada Inc., announced today that it will produce the next generation CR-V model for the European market. This will be the first time that HCM will export vehicles to Europe. Today's news follows Honda's recent announcement that it will invest $857M in its Canadian facilities, as it prepares for production as the global lead plant for the next generation Honda Civic, Canada's best-selling passenger car for the past 17 years. "Honda is thrilled to once again have good news for automotive manufacturing in Canada by broadening our production portfolio to include exports to the European market," said Jerry Chenkin, President and CEO of Honda Canada Inc. "This expansion decision was made possible due to our deep, mature, and rich talent pool with nearly 30 years of automotive manufacturing experience. We are so proud that our Canadian associates have the reputation of producing high quality vehicles that will meet the needs of the discerning European customer." The announcement further solidifies Honda's already deep roots and commitment to Canada.

Honda making hydrogen from solar power in UK

Mon, Nov 10 2014

Honda is going to launch a hydrogen-powered production vehicle (its second, really) next year, but the all-important H2 infrastructure question hasn't been fully answered yet. One possible solution is being tested over in the United Kingdom, where Honda is turning solar energy and water into hydrogen at its Swindon plant. SHD Logistics says the plant is the UK's "first commercial-scale hydrogen production and refuelling facility powered by solar energy." Despite the presence of an FCX Clarity in some pictures from the ribbon cutting, it's unclear if the station will be able to fuel any passenger cars. SHD Logistics talks about sending the hydrogen from where it is generated on the Honda plant grounds into the plant using 300-meter underground pipes so that hydrogen forklifts can refuel as needed. Two hydrogen fuel cell trucks used by Briggs Equipment UK, Honda's partner in the station, will also refuel at the plant. Honda said earlier this year that it, along with partner GM, would work to reduce the costs of a hydrogen refueling infrastructure. Solar-powered hydrolysis – which is what the Swindon facility uses – doesn't sound cheap to us, but at least it reduces the overall environmental costs, compared to using electricity generated from fossil fuels.
