Description
For Sale - 1987 Honda CRX HF. Please read the entirelisting before making contact, as to get a better understanding with the car and all the details. Please, reasonable offers and serious inquiries only.
I'm listing this car for a friend, who doesn't use ebay. The only option for purchase of this car is pick up and payment of cash in person. Shipping is not an option. I am very close to Burbank Airport, which is 4 miles from me and I'm happy to pick you up if you fly out. Feel free to be in touch, by all means.
If you've been holding out for a really clean Honda CRX HF, this is the one! All original, except for stereo. Original miles and odometer has always worked and mileage history can attest to this.
I've owned this car since April of 2012 and according to records, I am the fourth owner. This car was purchased new in 1987 here in California and for a time, based on records, spent some years in Tennessee, eventually making it back here to California. I have all service records from the first owner up to 2011, which is when he sold it to the second owner. The third owner acquired the car shortly thereafter, and then I purchased it on 4/21/12. I have driven it once a week and put less than 1,000 miles on it. It's been a great, fun car, but I am moving on to other interests.
Based on my calculations, at present on the highway it's getting 40 mpg, which is great for any car these days, and amazing for 1980s technology and what these cars are in part known for. Just a fun car to go places with, everybody asks about it, waves or gives a thumbs up while on the road, and here's your chance to get a very nice CRX, as it's only going to become more rare and more desired.
In March of 2015, as I'm looking at the receipt now from the service visit, it had 153,975 miles on it and at present it has 154,372. I replaced the water pump at that time, the camshaft and crankshaft seals, alternator belt, coolant, timing belt, valve cover gasket, and oil and filter. Over the years, as I'm looking at receipts up until 2011 from the first owner, it had a carb rebuild and carb mount replacement in October of 2011 with 152,196 miles on it, struts as well in 2011, o-ring on solenoid, and all kinds of normal things that it would need with regular service since then, including many 3,000 mile service visits over the years. An all around solid car, which you don't find them clean like this often.
The flaws are as follows, as I have taken pics as well. Some scratches on the driver's side door. Some rust on the hinge of the driver's side door, which makes a click noise when it's opened, though, all aligns fine and it's not loose or anything like this, as it closes normally. The headliner has a loose part inside closest to the front windshield in the middle. Car mats are not original and neither is the stereo. I don't know if the cassette player works, as I don't even have any cassettes anymore. Some usual nicks on the paint, but nothing major. A 29 year old car, of course, isn't going to be in showroom condition, but it sure is nice as it stands for its age. 5 speed transmission, 4 cylinder, dark blue color and clean title. Manual and warranty booklets, as shown in pics, included. In the records there is also a receipt from March of 1990, which states, "Check for theft damage," so it seems that this car was stolen then. In a handwritten log it mentions that the clutch was changed in 1990 after theft and paint in 2004. It doesn't seem that the whole car was painted and only the front part at the hood with the Honda logo on it. The paint is very good, all things considered with age and all and I garaged this car ever since I've had it and I believe that the previous owners did, too. You are certainly welcome to look everything over with this car when you come, as would be expected. This car does not have air conditioning, by the way.
Some mileage history, according to a handwritten log by the first owner:
11/11/91 - 50,442.
12/13/96 - 107,578.
3/29/04 - 146,168.
12/27/05 - 148,633.
8/15/11 - 151,932.
Brakes and tires are excellent. Clutch is smooth as well. Battery changed in December of 2014. Registration renews in January.
If you want to have a good time zipping around town or taking this on a long road trip, this is a wonderful car for it and you won't spend much on gas either while having fun, which is a big deal these days for everybody with gas prices.
I can be reached at 818-922-4840 and it's best to call, as I don't text because I need to keep my hands free with work. If there is no answer, just leave a message like we did back in the day, and I assure you that I'll get back to you shortly.
