Details on the car:

I have a 1992 Honda Civic VX Hatchback California Edition for sale. It took me 9 months to find this car in the condition I wanted and now I'm selling it because my commute has unexpectedly changed. I have four vehicles including this one and I no longer need to commute a far distance to work. For those who have are interested in saving gas, but don't want to compromise driving experience this car is for you. It's much more fun to drive than a hybrid and gets the same MPG. One thing nice about a 1992 vs. 1993-1995 California edition is that this car is pre-wired to convert to a Federal model. The only thing you would need to do is source a Federal model ECU. The other years were not pre-wired to convert to a Federal model. By doing this you would instantly gain 5+mpg, I never did it because I wanted to keep the car original.

Reasons that my car differs from other VX hatchbacks I've looked at:

1) The car was not molested by some teen or backyard mechanic.
2) It's completely original down to the factory radio block off plate and no speakers.
3) The body is straight and very clean overall for a car of its age.
4) Paint is still very good.
5) Vehicle has very low mileage for the age.
6) Optioned with very RARE OEM options. Please look at details and pictures below to find out.


Below are some details about the car:

Recent Maintenance:
Oil Change
Changed plugs to Factory Honda ZFR4F-11 Spark Plugs
Corrected ignition timing
Replaced Air Filter

Things I've fixed after acquiring the car:

Driver side door lock latch was broken (I sourced a OEM blue lock knob and replaced it)
Driver side mirror was working, but had a small hole in the front of it from a rock. (I found a good unit and replaced it with the same OEM part)
Missing rear emblem on the tailgate. I just bought a OEM emblem from Honda and put it on. The pictures show that it's missing. But, it's been put on.

Bad:
Front bumper has been repainted at some point. I'm not exactly sure why, however I don't think the car has been in any accidents because the radiator support is original and straight.

3 dings on the passenger side of the car. It's very minor, but I thought I should point it out. Please view pictures in the link below to see the dings.


My asking price is $5,500 OBO. I'm flexible on the price, throw me an offer the worst I can say is no . CARFAX report is available on request.

PM me if you're interested. Leave a phone number if you're really interested.
