Former CRX owner want to be civic ex owner

[floppy1752]

Hi all,
Back in 1993 I owned a 1990 CRX SI and that car was one fun ride. After having the car 6 months I totalled it, but during that six months I love to drive that car, as the milage told for itself (I put 36,000 miles on the car in 6 months).

I have the honda itch again, but this time I have to go for the civic (perferably EX) due to a wife and two kids.

I have been looking around on the web for a 92-95 civic 2dr ex, but I am not having much luck finding anything in my budget range ($3000 tops) so if any one out there runs across one and would be kind enough to drop a line please do.

Welcome! Good luck finding one of those... I've been looking for quite a while, and people don't want to sell decent running hondas for cheap anymore...

We actually found a 92-95 civic ex coupe a couple years ago, in perfect shape with 90k miles for 1700 bucks. I haven't seen a deal like that since.

I found a 95 ex with 185k miles and an asking price of $2600 but the guy will not anwer his phone

I have run across a few great deals, but they were not ex's and that is what I would prefer due to the VTEC

185k is a lot though, and 2600? I dunno...

My current car is a 98 4dr ex, and I got it for 1900 with 120k miles on it. The only thing wrong was the body, so my dad and I fixed it up and resprayed the whole thing. Almost brand new car for under 3k!
