In 1999, I finished my 88’ Civic Hatchback. I had a 98’ B16B engine with Spoon upgrades. It ran on race gas, and had a 10,000 rpm redline. It had headers and a 2 1/2” stainless steel mandrel bent exhaust. Very far from a fartcan. But I am 100% sure that in the late 90’s, what sounded like an orchestra to me, was nothing but a nuisance to some. But it sure was fun smoking Corvette’s and SS Camaro’s in that little beast!

Very cool, I bet that sounded glorious! I was a Toyota guy myself (I had a series of MR2s) so in the early 2000s I looked down my nose at Wrong-Wheel Drive Hondas. But my attitude changed after I drove a few of them and especially after I helped a friend fix up an '87 CRX Si that he had hit a deer with. Now I find myself yearning for the Hondas of my youth. I've actually been looking for another first-gen CRX Si in good enough condition to daily drive for a couple of years now, with no success. All the great cars of our youth are disappearing. It's very depressing.
