I was delivering one day and seen this CRX parked in a driveway with no plates on it, went up to the door knocked then asked the man whats wrong with the car and is it for sale. The guy said he just took it off the road a few hours ago, the number three cylinder has no compression. He ( Dave) has had the car for the last five years and put over 100,XXX miles on it, he works somewhere past Rochester so he has amassed a lot of miles over the years. He said he never drove it in the winters, there was some patch work on the rears but its held up remarkably over the five years, under side of car is spotless as well. The car is still in pretty good shape, nice interior, drove great on three cylinders, has a few blemishes but nothing to bad. Dave tossed on the bra to keep stone chips at a minimum on the thruway. I kinda like the bra. Anyway he said he was averaging ~45-47 miles to the gallon. I like the sound of that. ![http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress007.jpg](http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress007.jpg) ![http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress009.jpg](http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress009.jpg) ![http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress012.jpg](http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress012.jpg) ![http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress013.jpg](http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress013.jpg) ![http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress014.jpg](http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress014.jpg) ![http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress015.jpg](http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress015.jpg) ![http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress016.jpg](http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress016.jpg) ![http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress018.jpg](http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress018.jpg) ![http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress019.jpg](http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress019.jpg) ![http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress021.jpg](http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress021.jpg) ![http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress023.jpg](http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress023.jpg) ![http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress025.jpg](http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress025.jpg) ![http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress026.jpg](http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress026.jpg) ![http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress029.jpg](http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i95/716proo/dress029.jpg) ---

A good price, we can keep it at that. I might sell it after I freshen up the motor. Should sell quick, I sold my other CRX last summer to a guy in Rochester for $4000, he had a Hemi V8 and was sick of gas prices, I figure when they hit $4/gal I will sell it. ---
