Stock. Coupe. Manual. You shouldn’t exist.

Not pictured: factory “DOHC VTEC” sticker on the side.

I’m not one of those guys who thinks these cars are race cars or sports cars or better than they actually are. But they’re pretty good and this is a damn fine one.

I’m staring at my unicorn right now. 96 coupe, manual, black, stock except for period correct 13" aftermarket wheels. Mine is only a DX, so no VTEC. On the plus side it only weighs 2200lbs.

In my area, that thing would be stolen in 5 minutes, and I don’t live in a bad area.

I’d hope that even the thieves know they’re not fast. And we know how thieves go with manny.

Any Commodore would be faster - this is Australia after all!

Don’t worry I still have the stock 13" steelies and huncaps. I found these wheels really cheap and I did not have to buy new tires. My headlights/sidemarkers are what comes on the car. The post facelift ones do look much better.

Cool, but I’ll be truly impressed if I ever spot a stock one from the gen before. That car was peak Civic to me (excluding the Type-Rs of course).

They just want the parts around here. Honda theft is notorious in several American cities, no doubt. It’d be lifted and broken up.

Probably more interesting things to nick there :)

That’s awesome then, good on ya.

Yeah I know, they’re a US thing :( IMO they spoil the front of a great many USDM cars

A few factors behind it. Namely, low odds of being caught, ease of theft, and ease of resale for used parts. Old Hondas, especially VTEC models, consistently rank among the most stolen cars.

But I’d think it would be faster, newer cars! 90s Hondas are worth pocket change now and there can’t be much money in their parts.

They are usually worth pocket money here too, but there’s a huge aftermarket - the fast and furious stuff never really died off. I bet the lack of computers makes them easy to steal and break, too.

I remember some years ago, a co-worker had an early 90s Accord coupe, a highline model with leather. It got stolen and turned into nearly a shell, missing the interior and wheels.
