The body is decent, 2 holes on the underside of the passenger rocker in front of the rear wheel, but nothing serious. It got traded in at a VW dealership, I am guessing whoever had it got themselves a new TDI, base model, stick, if the CX was their car for the last 23 years ha ha. It was actually going to get scrapped, so I had to fork out $50 more than the scrap guy to get it. Seriously, what a waste that would have been, I am glad I saved it!
The DX Wagon final drive is 4.058 and the DX Hatch is 3.888. But that difference is probably not noticeable without a tach. Thanks for saving an old Civic. My Wagon is held together with expanding foam!
