My family had one of these for a while. My uncle handed it down to us for free.
I believe it went up to 400km and was still running strong when my brother ditched it.

@ a 108hp... It was a zippy little econo box for its time.

Drop one of those 130hp JDM ZC engines in it. Direct bolt in and they are cheap! it'd be a good mod considering these things are barely over 2000lbs.

p.s. you love your EF civics eh? I like them too. Lots of fond memories from my childhood. :D
I remember when i was 16 and my bro let me try it out in the parking lot. 5 speed manual and a noob 16 year old... Fun times. :D

Price to me is irrelavant...It's almost impossible to find these civics in Canada, in this sort of condition...
Lets just say I paid more than what Used vehicle package lists --> $0.00 :cheesygri

Honestly, I hate you, best of the Si hatchbackS, they were still triple stiching the seats back them.

Leave it stock, PLEASE!

Oh wow, that's fantastic. Used to have a '91 SE hatchback, also white just like yours. So much fun to drive. Being owned by Bill Gardiner is even better!

edit: keep it stock, screw those motor swaps the ricers are telling you to do.
Deal with it.

You bet !
Brad Diamond (the host of motoring T.V.) told me that the car was actually used as a prop in some episodes in the early 90's.
Gonna try and get some footage... :)

Wow, that is crazy mint. Never thought Bill would have something like this, I thought he was all about pickups and trucks.

Yes, It's getting new tires cuz those are 7+ years old.
New timing belt and water pump... It has never been done.
New tranny fluid and oil + filter.
Brakes are brand new, they were done in 2007 and only have less than 3000 kms on them.
