This '89 Civic Si is a very Rare find, and is for someone who wants a totally stock, original, non-molested, and well maintained 1 owner Si. It came from a dry climate out west (Colorado Springs), with little to no rust for most of its life and the previous owner(s) did not bastardize it and turn it in to a lowered rice rocket, it's in 99% original condition, just as it came from Honda. It's evident when you look at the car that the person who took care of it for 23 years was a mature owner who kept the maintenance up to date. I really hope that there's someone out there like me, who's older than 30, and not looking for a car to swap or drop or shave, etc... but will keep the car original, and just take care of some of the small details that need attention, and who will appreciate the value and increasing rarity of one of these Si's in Original and Stock condition! I have photos of the underside of the car, as well as the inside floorpan that I exposed while cleaning the carpet which show how mint and clean the metal on the car is. The interior is not perfect, but it's original and clean, and compared to many Civics of this vintage, it's not overly worn. The back seat area and carpet are nearly perfect. The left side panel has a cut on the vinyl because it seems as though the gray vinyl was shrinking and came unglued from the plastic panel. If I kept the car, I would remove the panel and reupholster the vinyl area, easy, and it could look like new.The front passenger seat is excellent for its age, no side bolster rips, just normal wear. The driver's seat has the normal Honda bolster rip, but the foam is mostly there, and I have a piece of new black corduroy fabric to patch the worn area (about 3") which I will give to the buyer. The interior door panels don't have any tears on the back from seatbelts, but do show some wear on the top edge, probably from exposure to UV sunlight in the high Colorado altitudes for many years, and are a bit faded with some small vinyl tears on the top, you can see in the photos. [I have already ordered replacement door panels for the car, which are excellent condition, which the buyer can purchase separately, if desired. I paid $280 for them] - The car is equipped with A/C, but I have not tried it. - The clutch was just replaced 6 months ago. - The engine starts immediately and runs smoothly and doesn't burn oil. - The suspension and brakes and steering all function fine. - The tires all have good tread, and are not old. It has the normal good spare with the jack and tire changing tools in the back. There is no apparent reason why this car could not be driven across the country to a new home if that's where you happen to live. It is NOT a "fixer upper". I AM OPEN TO ENDING THE AUCTION EARLY IF I GET A SERIOUS BID, but I will not say what my "Buy it Now" price is. It is up to you to determine how much its worth to you. Keep in mind, that another Si of this year, with higher miles and non-stock suspension just sold for nearly $3000. If there's something you want to know about just ask me. I have many other photos of the car I can send you.
