Used Car of the Day: 1991 Honda CRX Si

by Tim Healey

Published: November 13th, 2023

Today we bring you one of the original hot hatches -- a 1991 Honda CRX Si.

This one needs a new master cylinder to be roadworthy, but the engine starts and runs.

Browsing the photos, we see it has a manual transmission and needs some restoration, at least cosmetically -- we see paint bubbles along the sunroof and a worn-out interior.

The seller knows this car needs work -- the asking price for this Florida-based ride is $3,500.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

Not only were these lightweight and great handling, Honda shifters of that era were wonderfully engaging. I truly hope that somebody restores this and does not 'modify' it.

I guess back in 95 I should have bought the Acura Integra that was my second choice after the Probe. Mistake on my part - what's still in the garage in unmolested condition would be worth more like $40K instead of 5...

  You never see those Probes anymore, but the GT from that gen was so much fun. I miss cars like that

V8fairy Not scared, but I would be reluctant to put my trust in it. The technology is just not quite there yet
V8fairy Headlights that switch on/off with the ignition - similar to the requirement that Sweden has- lights must run any time the car is on.Definitely knobs and buttons, touchscreens should only be for navigation and phone mirroring and configuration of non essential items like stereo balance/ fade etc>Bagpipes for following too close.A following distance warning system - I'd be happy to see made mandatory. And bagpipes would be a good choice for this, so hard to put up with!ABS probably should be a mandatory requirementI personally would like to have blind spot monitoring, although should absolutely NOT be mandatory. Is there a blind spot monitoring kit that could be rerofitted to a 1980 Cadillac?

3-On-The-Tree I was disappointed that when I bought my 2002 Suzuki GSX1300R that the Europeans put a mandatory speed limiter on it from 197mph down to 186mph for the 2002 year U.S models.
