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

W Conrad Sedans have been fine for me, but I were getting a new car, it would be an SUV. Not only because less sedans available, but I can't see around them in my sedan!
Slavuta More hatchbacks
ED I don't know what GM is thinking.I have a 2020 one nice vehicle.Got rid of Camaro and was going to buy one.Probably won't buy another GM product.Get rid of all the head honchos at GM.This company is a bunch of cheapskates building junk that no one wants.
Lostjr Sedans have been made less practical, with low rooflines and steeply raked A pillars. It makes them harder to get in and out of. Probably harder to put a kid in a child seat. Sedans used to be more family oriented.
Bob Funny how Oldsmobile was offering a GPS system to help if you were lost, yet GM as a company was very lost. Not really sure that they are not still lost. They make hideous looking trucks, Cadillac is a crappy Chevy pretending to be fancy. To be honest, I would never step in a GM show room now or ever. Boring, cheap ugly and bad resale why bother. I get enough of GM when i rent on trips from airports. I have to say, does anybody at GM ever drive what everyone else drives? Do they ever then look at what crap they put out in style fit and finish? Come on, for real, do they? Cadillac updated slogan should be " sub standard of the 3rd world", or " almost as good as Tata motors". Enough said.
