I was at McDonalds yesterday on lunch break, and as I was walking back out to the Mazda, I saw a beat up old Crown Vic P71 in the drive through line. It had bumps, cuts, and dents in the same places as mine. I couldn't believe it. It's alive!

I always wonder if my '87 300D is still chugging around somewhere - saw an identical dark blue/grey interior car a few years back, but it had leather. Mine had MB-tex.

Had a '91 CRX Si - almost certainly still alive, but I'll bet it's been stanced and whatever else the kids are doing to those cars nowadays. When I sold it, bone stock.

i sold my 2002 Tacoma extended cab, 4 cylinder prerunner a year ago, and it now has absolutely massive tires and a body lift now... I had it custom painted (when u bought it it needed a paintjob) with the gray from the 2010 prerunner, but with extra metallic. The truck was scratched to hell and back. All of that prepping... Kid ruined it

Sold the CRX because I was going to law school in a big city, immediately regretted it, and still do. I imagine a bad body kit and lights underneath.

I'm sorry for your loss. I'm not a big Honda fan, but I do like the CRX.

It wasn't as fast as it looked, but you could easily approach the limits. Probably harder to find unmolested than a Supra.

Well, this was a 13 year old ex-cop car that then had a 20 year old (me) kill it and revive it $600 later. Even after that it didn't like to run. The fact the dealership that I traded it into kept it to sell is astounding.

my mom used to have a 1993 navy blue honda accord station wagon that she bought new and owned until 2007, it had gigantic dent in the back when someone backed into it, and I saw (not hers but another) one, which I have only seen 2 navy blue honda accord station wagons in my life, I saw another one like 2 days ago, its the first one I've seen in years.
