Well, you cant look unless you look at my rides in my profile. I dont know how to post a picture

1990 CRX DX. It will be my daily driver after my truck was wrecked over the winter.

167K miles the only thing that doesnt work is the windshield washers.

Runs and drives very well. The A/C is cold and it has Konis at all four corners. I need to ubgrade the wheels and tires from stock so I can auto cross it next year.

I right clicked on the picture in your Readers Ride, selected "Copy Image URL" and then clicked on the little camera icon above the reply section, and pasted it into there.

I worked for Honda when those came out. The DX was my favorite version of the CRX. I have never driven a car that felt lighter.

Wow that's super clean. It's also the fastest color!

Nice! I'm looking for one myself. Think you can find me another one down there like yours? I'll pick it up on my way to Florida around Christmas!

Wow. I don't know why I'm so surprised so many DXs & HFs are so clean..my mom had one that she bought just because it was "a good little car for the city". She had an HF, and so did a few of her friends.

that is a damn nice find - I had a friend with almost the EXACT same car...I lusted for it in '98, as I do now...its definitely on my short list of cars to own before my dirt nap.

Very nice. I sold one just like it two years ago. May I ask how much you had to pay?

There is one just like this in Mansfield, Oh. That's very close to Mid-Ohio. Looks very decent for a Ohio Crx.

Holy schnikies! I thought non-rusty/ricey CRXs had gone the way of the dodo! I long ago abandoned any hope of finding a local CRX that was affordable and not ruined.

Nice score! I wish the window trim on mine was in that kind of shape.

I've decided I'm going to be like an old cat lady but with CRXs.

Must be nice being in the south (rust). The weather is starting to cool down, which means I can start driving my Si again! No a/c.

One of the best cars to come out of the 1980's. Sweet.

Thanks all. It looks like it has been well cared for.

This one is rust free also, the A/C works tho not too cold on higher blower speeds. I just gotta get some 15" wheels so I can get some better rubber than the 13" steelies with craptastic tires.

In reply to porksboy:

15's are a good size, you could even get away with 14's. Falken makes some pretty sticky rubber for not a lot of coin for either. Smaller wheels = less rotational mass. But yeah, not a lot of choices out there for 13" wheels. I know. I've been struggling trying to find decent rubber for my Corvair's 13" wheels. For added masochism, I'm trying to find whitewalls, too.
