@@benpatterson121 yeah the CRX looks cool and seems like it has a bunch of turning potential. If I see one for a good price I would not hesitate on buying it.

Got over 50 MPG most of the time. AC never quit....always blew cold. The car ended up dying on I-75 at 90MPH....with 689,352 miles on the odometer. I was hoping for a million.....I miss that car.

Our old tenant is still driving her 2004 Matrix with 400,000 km still drive’s pretty much just like it did 19 years ago. It’s a Kamloops car, only a rust spot from a scrape on the rear door, no other places. Other than the front struts being blown that’s the only thing wrong with it. As long as you rinse salt off regularly & wax the paint so salt doesn’t stick the cars won’t rust.

As well as the MX5 there's also the Corvette and the MR2 also had a pretty good run, so I wouldn't say ALL two seaters fail. Honda had the NSX (marketed as Acura in N/A) which also had a pretty good run.

I work traveling around US, usually I do 6k-7k miles per month, the company only has corollas and accords between 2002-2010, most of the cars have more than 400k miles, I started with an accord with 780k miles, so yeah, Scotty is right about Honda and Toyota

We get easily in the 90s here in MT during the summer. Luckily he could just take the top off. I drove for years without working AC. Sometimes used cooking towels around my neck. Also my ‘89 dodge caravan has the crotch vent that can be opened to let outside air in. Those work really well. Which they still made trucks with the opening corner windows. A lifesaver if you don’t have any AC

Ive had my1994 honda del sol si for 8 years now. Ive never had any problems with it ever. I bought it for 500. Bucks. It looks great. Its not stock though. But its beautiful. Its perfectly designed. Luv it and its still my daily driver. I mean i get more looks from people then my blown 70 camaro. I have no emblems on it. So a lot of kids will ask me what kind of car is that its cool. And you know scotty its enjoyable to work on. For reals! Im still as excited about it as i was when i bought it. My insurence is on 49 a month because it a coupe. I only have liabilty because any thing else is a waste of money when you look at the blue book. But everything works great.

Montana does get hot in the summer. Missoula hit 90 degrees for 22 days in a row last summer. But it is a dry heat. It was so a dry last summer in Montana that almost a million acres burned.

A Civic Del Sol with a hitch ? Sort of like buying the best TV only to watch infomercials. If towing is on a weekly basis, a small used truck or SUV made for the job would be ideal. Cheers to Scotty.

@@davecrupel2817 Most winters are mild and it gets down to -15 or so. But most summers are 90-100 with 105 spikes. But some years we get the extremes. Every 10 years or so we get about 5 feet of snow. Mostly it's about 1-3 feet though. This year has been unusually warm. We did have a -10 spell for a few days though. Now it's 50 something outside. This last summer sucked!!! without A/C.

I like those, but finding OEM parts is like finding a needle in a haystack because they don't make them anymore and they're not seen quite as often anymore.
