There's a link to the crx's for sale within 300 miles from here. I did a search within 100 miles but that didn't find anything. Now, I know there are deals in the paper and on the streets...but they usually cost even more than autotrader AND are either beat to hell or have ricey crap all over them. The past two hondas I bought, were supposed to be a crx. But, I could never find one for a decent price. Average price in the 300 mile radius: $3,602

Oh, and bumper is going to get replaced.

Yes i know the going rate for a crx. Ive been looking for one in good shape for a few month's now. And if you search hard enuff you can find them dirt cheap in good shape. I have my eye on two at the moment one's a 89 hf the others a 88dx. The hf i can get for $800 all it need's is a new front spindle and a paint job every thing else is in very good shape, and it come's with mint si seat's. The dx i can get for $900 all's it need's is headlight's and a starter and minor body work.
I was just telling you what i would have paid and answerd a few quieston's you had. But the car is clean from what i can tell.

That seems like a good price for where I am. I sold mine for $1900 and the body was hammered, needed paint and some rot. It did have an LS swap and and ass load of new parts though.

Yeah, I know I could have got a better deal...there always seems to be one out there. But, I don't have time or motivation to go search for a car. I'll check a few classifieds, craigslist, ebay (bleh), drive to our "park and sell" lots, and autotrader. Most are seriously riced to hell, and they think that it increases value. Cars they ask $5k for I wouldn't even consider $1k.

Sooo...how bout that hinge and stuff?
