I had that year sedan in white. It was a reliable beater that took abuse well.
I’d think about it, but if im going to convince my wife to let me get a 3rd car its going to be fun to drive.

And by beautiful, I might mean ugly. Not really sure. Sometimes my appreciation of ugly things makes me think they’re beautiful.

Good. Now call the seller of this and buy it.
If after purchasing it you decide its not your thing, I’ll hold onto it for you. Mileage might go up a bit. No promises.

There was once a similar vintage Honda wagon near me in potato brown.
I, unfortunately, was in high school and had only about $16 to my name, not $1750.
80s wagons are my weakness.

Mint
Grinds 3rd gear .
Also, I love that the price is justified because the owner did maintenance he should have been doing regardless of a sale or not.

What HHFP said. They are abominations. I flat out refused to consider any car that had them during this time frame.

Me likey. Hate the seatbelts, and don’t like the color, but I’d deal with it.

Nah, I’d just drive it as is.
Beggars can’t be choosers when looking for 25+ year old, reliable, economical, 3-pedal wagons!

I sometimes like to pretend I live in this fantasy world where I can just go buy a car like this on the spur of the moment without asking permission.

Don’t let them hear you say that. Wrong thinking is punished.

It’s called a kitbash. But do it with life-size models.
