In all honesty how long do you see you owning your current Honda?

JC (my 91 hatch) has been with me 19 years as of tomorrow We are celebrating by going to an autox (his fav) in Brooksville (traction!) tomorrow.

Overall I have no plans of letting any of my Honda's go.

I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

I picked up my Crx around last Christmas, I bought it from Mike "spooncivic" he owned it for atleast 5years and made it pretty well known.. when I bought it it was just a shell and I pretty much rebuilt it from the ground up redoing everything from the wiring to fuel setup, brakes,suspension,interior and full engine swap etc. everything I didn't like or that was done half assed was changed nothing was left untouched.


I put more effort,time and money into resurrecting the Crx then any car Ive owned before, The sentimental value is so high noone would probably want to pay the price Id want for it. Im still not done with it and probably never will be..

My 91 CRX has been with me since 2000, but she was my 3rd CRX I have had many others since her, but she is mine and I'll probably be burried in her.

My 91 Wagovan, is an addiction that I cannot break, so I have her till she is totalled or stolen..

I have been driving Hondas Since my parents bought one in 1992 or 93, and have owned through buying and selling and parting out many Honda Cars.

I have had:
28 EF CRXs
11 EF Hatches
3 EF Wagons
4 EF Sedans
2 EG Sedans
6 84/85 Accords
5 90-93 Accords
1 96 Accord
2 90-91 Da Integras
1 95 DC Integra
------------------------
63 Honda Cars <- I think that is all, I might be forgetting a few though.

I will probably own hondas the rest of my life,

I had a 94 Civic LX, interior was perfect but the outside needed work and it was automatic so it wasnt so much fun but it was still a great car. Then I bought a 96 Civic EX, love having the 5 speed it makes a slow car more fun and its in real good shape. I plan on keeping it as long as I can or until i can afford a new 350Z with the top of the line model. I thought about getting rid of it last week, I went to dealerships with many cars in mind I sat in them and what not and to be honest, my EK feels 100 times more comfortable. it may not have that brand new showroom smell or the doors that you can slam and its still quiet but I really do love my car. Suits me well. BTW is the AutoX @ the Hernando Co. airport? If it is can I stop by to watch or something?

I've owned 5 Hondas since i got my license and the longest i kept my car was 2 years others less than 6 months.
94 Accord LX,93 Acura Integra GS,98 Integra LS,92 Civic Hatch GSR.

I just bought a 92 Acura Integra GS-R and i just dumped some good money into it so I'm keeping it for a while or untill it wears off on me.
