Picking up this little red civic

[J Z06]

one owner, 1994 it has a few dings and dents but i think the finish can come back. the interior needs a good cleaning and i'll probably buy some engine cleaner and take care of that too. this is probably going to replace my Yaris. i had a blue hatchback like this one which was a little nicer and probably shouldn't have sold it :)

Why are you replacing the Yarris?

[J Z06]

1. I don't want the payments
2. I always liked the little civic hatchbacks. :) neat little cars. The Yaris has been spot on and regularly gets over 400+ miles out of a tank with a gallon or so to spare.

Ah I see... Thats cool... I like the Civic HB as long as they are not all riced out (ugly body kits dumb lights etc) are you going to mod it? if you do I think these look great lowered with 17s or 18s and a nice mild tint...

To remove dents & dings you might want to consider this:

That civic looks like it has potential.

The engine bay is what stands out to me. It looks unmodified, that's what you want.

Just remember, its a civic, not a ferrari and it will never be one.

Lol... So true! A bit more umph may help but it would be pointless to go with any more than a bit... lol...

Thanks guys! :) this is a one owner car. Little old man owned it, which made me want it INSTANTLY :) My blue one was like this. One owner. These days, cars like this are rare so I jumped on it. Um, it'll get cleaned up...tinted lightly...maybe some rota gt-3 wheels and that's it. The 1/4's are rotted, passenger side has a dent in the door and the 1/4. Not sure what I'll do there but it is a good reliable car that gets excellent fuel mileage . Yes, it is un-modified! it will remain that way.(engine)

I think these are the ugliest cars on the road, but damn do they get good mileage.

I have an idea. Go get a sticker that says, "Stock. The way every civic should be." and place it in your rear window! If i ever get a civic for whatever reason, thats the first thing im going to do. :)

I would love to get a EG Hatch but too bad around here people will race you and the theft rate on these things...

[JSMet]

A good, reliable, work horse of a car. Gets good mileage, dependable in summer or winter weather. I have a 89' CRX with 125,000+ miles that's still going. Regular oil changes and preventive maintenance is just about all it takes.

[J Z06]

Yeah, the theft rate is pretty alarming. I'm careful where I go. It'll remain stock with the exceptions I had mentioned previously. Going to $$ it now then register it tomorrow. :). On vacation this week ao plenty of time.

My girlfriend has a 99 Civic that isnt modified at all and has 201,xxx miles on it and doesnt have a single issue. Take care of it and it will take care of you. Civics are great cars!

Im sure you can get that one looking clean too.
