Help me out. I have a POS 85 bmw that I want to sale my dad just got a 89 honda civic 4 door auto sedan 120,000, it needs alittle work (paint, some body work) but thats about it. interior is in perfect condition engine runs good his plan is to give it to my sister when she gets her license in about 2 years well he said he will sell it to me for about what I will get out of the bmw about 1k and whatever I do to it paint bodykit rims whatever he will pay me back for it when I want another car but I really want a CRX I think its a good idea I get a car to fix up and get reimbursed when I sell it, my sister gets a really cool car when she turns 16 and I than have money to buy a nice CRX. if you guys find any problems with this plan or think of something let me know.

I really enjoy haveing you peeps to talk to. :coolguy:

Well it wouldnt be a bad idea to get the Civic but there isnt any mods you can really do to it whatsoever unless you want to spend alot of money. It's carburated, they dont make body kits, altezzas, etc for it if that's what you like. You could get it and put on some nice rims and that's about it. By then you still should have enough money to get a CRX for pretty cheap. If you dont want to swap the motor in the CRX then stick with the Si.

uh, 89 sedan=4th gen = dpfi(or mpfi if its an EX), No?

There are some pretty clean 4 door 4th gens out there man, just have to look really hard to find them

If you dont want to spend too much money, and i use the term loosely:o , id suggest converting to mpfi, then dropping a zc in there.
Get a nice set of springs/struts or coilovers, and a nice set of wheels, as well asyour paintjob, and it will be big pimpin

plan on alittle mods nothing major paint job, lowering springs, rims, I found a body kit that I like and is like the only one I can find so that not bad. but ya I will have money for the CRX and I plan on the SI and drop a B16 in

cool man, just make it look nice, your little sis wont need a fast car anyways

good luck

Sounds good. You might really want to change over from carb to fuel injection and throw in a ZC or somethin. That would be kinda cool. Good luck on your project.
