The '70s were a crazy time, they made cheesy boogie van windows that would hinge open. It could be a factory roof, I don't know enough about those cars to really have an opinion, but the fact that it's bubbled plexiglass and not tempered, flat glass makes me think that it's not a Honda piece. That and the fact that usually even an aftermarket sunroof will have a frame inside the car that the roof will hinge onto, not the frame on top of the roof, and then the hinged window on top of that. To me that thing screams "Hey Cletus, hold my beer, Ima make me a sunroof!"

Looking kinda slim on the pickings these days

2003 Ford Focus SE - $1300 (JUST SOLD. I CALLED FOR INFO ON IT JUST NOW.)



2003 Ford Focus SE in excellent condition... 4door 5speed manual transmission... Has 90,000 miles... engine and transmission are excellent.... runs great... call


2000 Honda Civic 5 Speed - $1300



i have a 2000 honda civic runs great 5 speed trans has 129,000 miles great car for work or school must see$1300


only 58,000 miles! 1985 Dodge Colt in excellent condition - $1500



This Dodge Colt was kept in a garage for most of its life and driven short distances - it looks almost new inside and out, has less than 60,000 miles on it, and drives like a charm. I had the catalytic converter changed a month ago and the car passed the smog check, so it's set for the next two years. The registration is good through 2016.
Other pros: it gets about 30mpg, has a CD/tuner/usb/aux connected sound system, the heater works great, and it is a very unique little car! I changed the oil regularly and had new belts, hoses, and fluids put in when I bought the car from its original owner in the Fall of 2013.
The cons: No AC, minor dent/scrape on the front driver's side, needs new axle boots, has an oil leak. The repairs are minor, but I am selling the car because of the lack of AC! $1,500 OBO

I am going to break pretty much every rule of this thread. It's an automatic, and it's $2500. But before you judge me too harshly, look at the mileage on this. I have never seen one of these cars with mileage this low. And it's not stupidly overpriced. If it was a 5 speed I'd already own it.

1990 honda civic--- only 98000km

Well, if you can list a 2500 dollar 1990 civic, I suppose I can list what I just bought last month.

2005 focus ZX3 5 speed. 82K.

Sunroof, looks nearly new on the outside, like new on the inside. Drives like a brand new car and I am not exaggerating. The best part is underneath, it is 100% rust free.

It has a rebuild title, which, I suspect may mean it was a flood car. A title search says it began life in MD. Around 2009, it got the rebuilt title with about 50K on it.Has been in new england since.

The rebuilt title makes it a bit of a crap shoot, but, what used car isn't? And the amazing lack of rust was enough to make me pull the trigger.

I am about 3K miles in. Just a touch under 39 mpg so far with sensible driving and mild hypermiling. Pretty sure I could hit 50 with some mods and more serious hypermiling.

And the best part is, it is actually a blast to drive. More than ample power and doesn't feel like you are driving a skateboard.

1990 Honda CRX

Quote:
For sale is a 1990 Honda CRX DX. 197,000 miles. Manual 5 speed transmission. Runs excellent. Super clean. I am second owner. Car is originally from California, I bought it about 10 years ago and only drove it in the summer. No mods. No rust! Underneath is clean. Gets 40 mpg. Needs nothing. I always kept up with maintenance. Love the car and hate to see it go but have kids now and need something with a back seat. Only issue I know of is tear in drivers side seat (see pictures) and a tiny bit of rust started by the gas door. I ground it down and coated it to stop the spread, but never got around to bondo-ing it and making it look nice.

I have 15" Konig wheels with tires that come with car if wanted. They are currently on a civic (see picture).

$3400 or reasonable offer. Thanks for looking.

Well I didn't mean to start a trend haha. I guess to me, a 25 year old Civic with 60k miles in mint shape that could probably be bought for $2000 Canadian ($1560 US) seems like one of those cars you could stretch the rules for. I can tell by the pictures and the area that car is in that it is inherited, and whoever is selling it could care less, they just want to get rid of it. No plates, rubber floormats on top of the factory floormats, the red tassels hanging from the mirror - that was grandpa's car. That's the car you want to buy, I bet the valve cover has never been off it, it hasn't even needed a timing belt yet. Such a shame it's an autotragic.

This kinda breaks the rules, but I'm sure if you walked up with 1500 he would take it.

I contacted the seller, and it does not have the downshift grind, however, the IMA light is on, so you would either need Peters ima bypass, grid charge the battery or replace the battery to get it to pass smog.

Looking to trade my insight for a bike cruiser preferred but anything will do my insight is registered clean title new clutch just serviced runs. Great has 270k needs grid charger that's it gets 50 plus miles per gallon for more info or ? Give me a call thanks 619-607-2372
