Let’s see the outside that car is a part of my story
Look at his last video
@@LebronJames10644 I will thank w
What’s your story!? My story is in a 1989 Honda Accord . . . BiH we BaD & BoUjeE 😅
The outside is immaculate like the interior, just look at the other video he posted
You were conceived in one?
These retro cars actually look amazing inside when they’re in such great condition
They're built better
As a 90s kid, when I watch movies from the 70s and 80s I associate the cars in them with the old junkers I'd see past their prime in my childhood. But at the time these would've been clean, new, possibly top of the line cars. It's similar to today how the main character will probably drive a brand new car, especially if there's some brand deal with a manufacturer. Maybe in 20 years we'll see a 2024 Civic and think it's junky.
@@ianmiller1000 you can watch movies from 2008-2012 and cars in those movies look old already
@@charlesmiv3842not really, they’re just simpler. Chassis, transmission, efficiency and safety have been the greatest improvements IMO.

My first car was an ‘86 Honda Civic with 6,000 miles on it back in 2007. The previous owner was an elderly lady that only drove it to church on Sundays and the grocery store each Monday. Maintained immaculately. It had 13 oil changes in those 6,000 miles. After she passed it sat in the sons garage for several years and then I got it. I drove it for 9 years, got it up to 140k miles before it got rear ended on the freeway. I miss that car to this day.
You were blessed!
Damn I felt that. Sorry that happened
had a toyota bought it with 38000 and a honda accord wit 61000 both garage kept
Old lady specials are the best kind of cars. Makes me wonder how many gems are still sitting in the garage somewhere
Definitely could have made more miles if not the for accident for sure I imagine!
Why do these old cars look so beautiful. Simplicity and excellence.
And it weighs nothing and gas mileage is better then most cars today.
If it wasn't for government safety standards and EPA regulations we would have cars just as light and twice as good on fuel. Quite sad really
True but i wouldn’t want to crash on that thing
If not for the EPA and overbearing safety regulations we could have all that. Even safer cars, as having them be much lighter always helps.
Guys, please. Cars are far safer now. And regulations aren't to blame here. Consumers have chosen SUVs... This Civic wouldn't stand a chance in a crash with the F100 of the day...
@@santouchesantouche2873True. And the consumers only chose the SUVs because the automakers marketed them so heavily, because they could make more profit selling them as "luxury" vehicles, and the bullshit "light truck" loophole increased their profit margins even further.
I worked at a Honda dealership, back in 1984, and I'm very familiar with these cars. Miss those days.
Those early 90s Honda's were amazing. I had a CRX Si that was so much fun. The Preludes looked amazing too.
I had an 84 that I put a ton of miles on and bought new for I think 2400 bucks. Lasted me 14 years before I sold it in perfect shape.
@@angrytater2456 the Preludes were definitely a cool looking car.
@@OttoByOgraffey Late 80's early 90's were my favorites. They are a pretty rare car I've read. Oddly, there weren't a lot sold.
Me too. I was 3.
My first car was a 84 4 door light blue Civic. The car used as much oil as gas but ended up making it over 300,000 miles. I loved that thing.
That’s nice of him to film this in 1984 and post it 40 years later. Thank you, sir.
🤣🤣
😂😂
Lmaooo
You saw these cars throughout the 90’s all over college campuses. They were cheap for parents to buy for their kids, cheap to insure, cheap to fuel, and cheap to maintain. The Civic was like the Top Ramen of cars. These were some of the best cars Honda ever made.
what's with the blue if no a/c?
So is was like the lada of the ussr
And now modern Civics are wanting to be a Type R and are blinged up to be nicer than a Corolla and priced out for parents to do the same. Oh technology and wanting to be the "cooler" car.
@@raven4k998 It's natural vented air from the outside.
The Civic still exists. Why are you using past tense? Odd
My grandmother just passed away and she had an 86 Civic base hatchback, No a.c. , radio or passenger side mirror either. The car has only 47k miles on it and it was left to me. Not a single dent or scratch on the car.
I’m sorry about your grandmother. That car she left you is a treasure. I’m sure you will enjoy it and think of her. 💕
Sell it. Enjoy and destroy a more modern Honda like an 03-07 Accord "the best car ever made". Sell it on cars and bids or something you'll get enough money for a beater and a down payment on a house.

@@MrAdoh2010 Up to 2015 Civic is the last and final high reliability Honda vehicle.
@waltchan just buy a honda 6 cylinder. Just needs a bottle of prolong oil additive to along with it.
The 92 still had the joint rolling dash on the passenger seat too!
This isnt that basic interestingly. It has a soft touch door panels. Other economy cars had metal door interiors, or even cardboard. Some has chokes like a lawnmower.
Hell yea
This takes me back.
I got my license when I was 15 yrs old.
I drove a manual 1977 Honda hatchback.

He was a wise man, for sure, cause he was damn right, sorry for your loss.
Rest in peace pops!
Hahaha that's awesome
God bless is soul he was real man back then
They came without radios because aftermarket stereos were so big back then
I mean I hear what you’re saying, but it also came without speakers 🤨 so I doubt the aftermarket stereos popularity was why these came unequipped
Most cars did come with radios back then.
@@jonathanrice1070 no shit. That's just why the civic came without them
My first new car was an 88 Civic hatchback. Same deal. Window cranks, speaker covers only, no radio, no antenna, no A/c, and no passenger side mirror. It was a great car.
Wish we could get basic cars like this. Hell, it's probably more reliable than a lot of cars today!
Bullshit. Maintenance is key.
@@Supremepikachu it was nice when we didn’t have power windows and power locks and power seats and so on. It’s just more shit to break. Speaking from experience.
@@Seashellsbytheseashore21 I hate manual windows. They are the worst! Power locks are better and much safer. But power seats is useless, never optioned that on my cars. I have never seen power locks fail nor window regulators on my 1999 BMW M3 so you're really being delusional with that. 95% of the people would not want a car with 1970 specs.
@@SupremepikachuWhere did you get your bs statistics? Just ask Russia and India, most people drive boxes with wheels there. You are delusional into thinking that just because your car never needed a power window replacement that there is never something wrong with comfort electronics. Audis & BMWs are among the crappiest cars even with maintenance.
@@edzamper5803 Mate, you clearly have no clue what you're talking about. I owned 3 old bmw cars never had any electronic problems...

My first car was a hand me down 1980 Civic. I had to have a passenger mirror installed aftermarket. Then I tinted the windows and added a sound system with 2 12" subwoofers in the back. I have a video on it in my channel.
Reminds me of the car I daily drive to work- 1986 Camry. Power nothing but does have a radio, 2 mirrors, and AC. Milage is at least 750k miles, everything works, and its still getting 350 miles per 10 gallon tank. It's also like driving a go-kart.
Damn, that's great. I wish we could still get basic cars like this today.
That is incorrect you cannot buy a car without a rear passenger mirror
@@triskits_mmm I think you replied to the wrong person
I wonder how much it would cost to manufacture today in similar numbers with today's tech

@@jichaelmorgan3796 I imagine pretty low. An example I can think of was from Mexico. 2017 Nissan tsuru, $7500.
People complain about car prices but no one wants a base model stripped down car anymore. I just turned 18 and I wanted something like this but it’s impossible to find on a dealer lot. Everything is loaded with power everything, touch screens, sensors everywhere….
You can always order a base model. But it will still have hundreds of pounds, and thousands of dollars, worth of "safety" and "driver assistance" stuff, whether you want it or not.
If you have the budget for a decent sort of stripped-ish new car, I think 2023 is the last year you can buy a Subaru WRX with no driver aids, a manual transmission, a basic stereo… yes it has a touch screen for the backup camera, but for the most part it is still stripped down. As for nobody wanting a base model, I think a lot of the driver aids/touch screens have been more of a “requirement” that has been built upon, if you know what I mean. I’m not making excuses. But the Subaru for example, the government mandates a backup camera, so if you already have to put a screen in the car you might as well make it part of the stereo and give your stereo some features. But I like the WRX, it still has mechanical seats, the base model you can still get with a key for the ignition, you pop the hood and you can still sort of see the engine. It still has a cable parking brake instead of these weird electronic parking brakes.
These are all fun thoughts until you think about reality and daily driving a vehicle like this today would be pure ignorance. One small accident in this car and you could be in for all kinds of injuries you could have avoided because it was "cheap and looked cool"
@@state0fmind126first these car aren’t cheap anymore … in good condition and second put a cage in it , if your so scare of having an accident what’s your point ? It’s still better than all the new appliance that comes out

That retro interior! Beautiful! 🤤
Love the simplicity! Reminds me of the 1980 Toyota Corolla wagon my dad had. Had power steering and AC and was a revelation in quality, comfort, drivability, and economy.
Much more recent example of a simple car was my mom‘s 2017 Nissan Versa. Had roll up windows and manual locks.

Did your car really have no passenger side mirror?
@@april1st183 yep!
@@TK-mj9rd Wow! Thats amazing 😂 Wasnt that also dangerous?
@@april1st183 the 80s was a different time. What was a lot more dangerous (in retrospect) is that seatbelts were not mandatory and there certainly was no reminder chime going off when you didn’t use them. We almost never wore them. 20 miles per hour or 70 miles per hour, didn’t matter
Now back then many of those cars didn't come with a passenger side mirror. I think some time in the 90's it became mandatory to put mirrors on both sides
My first few cars looked like this. My ‘82 Civic sedan had no AC and was a manual. It got 30 mpg and I could get up to 102 mph. I fueled up once a month! Best car ever.
My first brand new car was a 1990 Honda Civic CRX, it too did not have air, a radio, electric windows or rear defogger and it was a stickshift. My exhusband jerryrigged an older stereo with some small metal speakers, it made my cute little car look ghetto, but it cranked. That CRX was the best car I ever owned. No creature comforts, but man, it started every fricken time. Reliable as hell.
My brother had this car. Legit one of the funnest cars to drive. Super light and nimble. No side airbags or anything 😂 felt like driving a tin can down the road. I loved that car
No airbags... we died like MEN! (Seriously tho' - I had 2 1979 CVCC 3 door hatches and a 1980 4 door back in the day... awesome fun little cars!)
They didnt even have airbags back then.
But it has no power. When I lived in hilly upstate NY, my 4-speed manual 1986 Honda Civic hatchback would lose a lot of speed going uphill on the freeway even though I'm in 3rd and floored. I'd need to go 75+mph downhill so I'd be 55mph when I crested the hill. People were pissed at me. You know how NY drivers are. 75 is the "flow of traffic".
I used to own a 1985 Prelude and a 1989 Civic DX Hatchback. Both were 5 speeds and fun little cars to drive.
Great for power slides with the E brake

🧐Well...what u got then bro🤔👀👀
Finding an 80's car with under 100 miles is almost impossible, it would sell for an outrageous amount of money if it went on auction.
Great car! Loved the civic and the CRX was the bomb.
My parents bought me a 1993 wrangler for graduation in 1993. At that time the passenger mirror was standard equipment.
The only option it had was a back seat. It did 0-60 in three hours, downhill
My first car was an 86 Civic. I had radio and AC but no power anything including steering. I loved that car.
No unnecessary stuff. Concentrated on point A-B. No distractions. Safe driving
No overtaking from the left lane 😂
Except the missing mirror part
It does have the emergency window cranks which is helpful.
Well, you turn your head to the right. Much easier than to the left. But very valid. At least give me the side mirror!! Haha

Issue being a lot of them are really unsafe

The cost of cameras, automatic lights, push button rear and sliding doors, extensive sound system with large information screens and apple play, heated seats and streaming wheel, electric seat adjustments with memory settings, etc. are all items that are completely expensive 'wants' that are expensive to fix when they break. This is part of the reason why basic cars can cost $40k these days
My 1983 Porsche 944 looks like it came from the factory still. The original owner kept it in his garage. Now I do the same. 😊
The harness for the radio clips into the back of the plastic block off plate, the speaker wires are also hiding in the door cards and other speaker locations. I found it amusing and ultimately quite pleasing when installing a factory radio into my base model civic.
Simple, that’s how they used to be. I’d buy that civic in a heartbeat, less technology, simple but fun to drive

My 1991 Honda Civic did not have AC. And it had no power steering. I drove that car for such a long time. Loved it.
For a lot of people it was either something like this or nothing. My first car was a 1967 Opel Rekord sedan that was on its last leg in 1978, always near the point of coming apart at the seams. It had rust holes, never ran quite right in the cold and it drank more than some contemporary sports cars...but it was mine.

Did you trashed it away?
Yeah those things got amazing mileage. I almost bought one for that reason as a second vehicle to my truck.
They were pretty quick too for what it was
@fuarkstyle No, the engine needed a new head gasket at 425K miles and I had another car anyway, so I sold the CRX to the mechanic for $100 and he was going to fix it. Who knows, it might be on the road today lol

@@guytansbariva2295 for such durable car that's what I was guessing, very probably it's still rocking on. Also cool price 😀 I would have bought it too blinking fast.
The simplicity of this car makes it beautiful 😍
Great car. Had one when I graduated high school. Metallic beige hatch back no AC too but with a radio. Very revy engine and super lightweight. I improved the brakes and tires and that thing used to give far more expensive cars a run for their money in twisty b-roads. Wouldn’t hesitate to buy one to collect.
I would buy this car today if it were available.
The only thing that would discourage me is that there were no airbags then.
Thsts a good thing my 79 honda accord had no air bags and no cat converter either it wasnt required untl 1980 73. @@riggs20
Back in the days when the price you paid for a car was actually dependent on how much it cost to build that car instead of the price being entirely dependent on the badges glued to it and how greedy the dealer is lol
lol bad in what days, exactly? This was the case almost from the inception of the automobile.
@@Three60Mafiayou could actually haggle a price considerably pre-pandemic. now prices are firm, if not altogether inflated by a few thousand, as in the case of the type R.
🤡's that overpay for Toyotas (still) in 2024. Lmao. I know exactly what you mean.
Too many computers and safety features are required on modern cars
This bad boy was only $2000 in 1984. I bought a loaded Accord the same year for $9000. 😂
I just bought myself a 1989 Opel Corsa (I’m European btw) and it looks just as good as this one, brand new interior and exterior, and all of the sudden TH-cam has been recommending me such videos nonstop, thanks TH-cam ❤
I owned one of those. I miss that car so bad. I would trade any of the cars since then for another. The simplicity and ease of maintenance, one of the very best cars. Mine died 26 years old, 370k on the clock after going three years with a blown head gasket from a warped block.
Would love a car like this today. Cars are filled with stuff you dont actually need just to keep the cost high.
Facts I been saying this 💯
like mirrors and turn signals
There are plenty of cars that you can buy for a good price which are around nowadays still. You'll rarely encounter this specific model in this good a shape, but, there's a lot of fantastic Mercedes from this time which run like literal tanks, regularly getting over 1 million miles on them with no problem. Same for Volvos of the era.
@@ZombxstNo like a steering wheel, driver’s seat and motor…all are unnecessarily overrated!
@@JCizzleSoCal so true
Fun fact: all the wiring for the radio and speakers are there.
In that era, most Honda options were dealer-installed, minimizing the number of unique cars shipped from Japan. In my father’s case, he decided he did want air conditioning about a year after he bought his 86 Accord. The dealer installed it in an afternoon.
(Update: I have no idea if it was retrofit in an afternoon, or morning, or 6 hours, or a full day. Those arguing over this (you know who you are) really need to find something productive to do with their time.)
These are things that dealers used to do. Now everything comes standard and cars are crazy expensive.
@@Jimster481They come standard for the same reason they all shipped the same, makes it easier for the dealer to do what the majority buy anyway
My dad did kind of the same thing. Bought a new ford in the 1980s and ordered it without a radio just so he could put a better aftermarket one in himself.
@@sonnyfontes558I would actually prefer to do that since the default ones are worse.
You can't install AC in an afternoon. It not just a new switch FFS.
Ive owned an 89 Civic, 91 CRX, 91 Toyota MR2, 93 240sx, 2008 Forester XT.
Almost bought a new 90’s Ranger, back in the 90s (manual windows, vinyl seat, rubber floors)
I wish you could still buy simple basic cars new.
I love the simplicity, longevity and reliability vs over bloated new cars that are built to fail after 4-5 years or 100k miles.
We talk about the environment and waste and nearly everything we buy is designed to be thrown away and replaced every 3-5 years. Cell phones, laptops, iPads, cars, tvs, appliances, etc…
No power steering. My first car was a 89 Honda civic hatchback. All basic. One of the best cars I owned.
Fun fact - The base 1983 Toyota Tercel came with no carpet. Just a metal floor.
Now thats luxury
Yep. That's where the carpet muncher myth got started. It was a horrible monster that would get in any unlocked car and munch the carpet.
You'd think they would have put a rubber floor in???
@@e46m54nissansr20937I read your comment in Eustacio Bagg’s voice from Courage the Cowardly Dog
😂😂😂
My father first taught me how to drive when I in 10th grade. I learned in his 1986 5-speed manual shift Honda Civic.
I hated it but I kept learning until I finally mastered the clutch/gas/brake.
Dad said that knowing how to drive manual would save my life one day.
Thanks, Pop ❤
Did he also showed you in practice how to make love or your mom did? Were they using you or other men?
We are lucky. Back in the 90s, everyone had "The Club" for anti theft. Now, all you need to do is swap out the automatic for a manual transmission. I worked at a mechanic shop, and 3 mechanics (all under 25) could not drive manuals.
@@chucknorris3rdnut okay so instead of being supportive and understanding of the fact that they haven’t had the means to learn yet and trying to teach them yourself, you instead would rather choose to belittle them over something that they have literally no control over? Yeah, makes total sense lol. There’s far too many people already that are bitching and running their mouthes about “everything that’s wrong with the world nowadays” and not enough people taking action to change it. Be the change you wish to see man, lead by example. I never learned how to drive stick, not because I’m a brain rotted Gen-Z Tik-Tok tide pod eating kid that’s incapable, but because I never had the MEANS to learn. I didn’t have a manual car just readily available for me to learn on, nor did I have a father or anyone to teach me how. Y’all always wanna act like it’s our “choice” or that we’re “too stupid” to do it, when that honestly couldn’t be further from reality
@@chucknorris3rdnut makes sense that they don't know how to drive manual, there's probably much better access to autos when they're learning. They can worry about learning manual later.
Had a 86 and it started even with a ton of snow on it and not running for over a month in January. They are hard to beat.
My first car was a 1984 Ford Escort L 5 speed with drivers side mirror, am fm radio, crank windows, heat/vent, and the horn could be honked with the steering wheel or turn signal lever. It was a hatchback.
Build cars with early 2000's tech. Simple and cheap no more stupid ipad screens ffs, it's a car!
They’re living rooms on wheels nowadays
@@kd_76 No, that's a Lincoln Towncar... and I'd STILL rather have one of those from 40 years ago than anything new! :3
There’s no money in that
Early 2000s quality and technology was dogshit.
What about “it’s a car”??? Make some sense before you comment.
Thats all you need. Steering wheel, gear shift, gas and brake.
and a small chassis=hand crank engine
I wouldnt mind a 2nd mirror
@@TheFurnace69 yes
Clutch too, but a radio was needed in 1984 as the Walkman was new, cds were only for the user rich, analogue channels ( well in europe anyway )and Bluetooth hadn't been invented yet, so would have been boring ride to your destination.
@@UKKC80s Well yeah, haha, dont want to forget that, kinda hard grinding gears going down the road without the clutch, unless you are the ultimate master of rev matching.
Had one in New Zealand. Came standard with an am radio, pull up antenna, and a full size spare wheel., both extras in stupid Australia. A great car.
To be honest I’m happy if there’s no Soundsystem as a 90s kid growing up born in the 80s. I would appreciate that pure sound of just the engine.
I owned an 86 Civic Si years ago. It had fancy options like a radio, passenger-side mirror and A/C. Very fun car
I want it!! I love driving without distractions. Just me, the engine, and the open road.
But you definitely need a passenger side wing mirror
Buy a motorcycle
All 60hp... what a time to be alive
@@jackburton5483 I'm hesitant about motorcycles. I've seen too many people get thrown off and crippled.
I had an 80 Accord, used. It was a shoebox, the same size as a later Civic. It had AC, 5 speed manual, ran like a top BUT rust killed it in its 8th yr.
Yet so modern. Why. Can’t. We. Make. This. Today. ???.
I had one of those, I was the 13th owner and it had 400,000km on the clock. Paid $350 New Zealand dollars for it. Great car, never missed a beat
Imagine the stories a car with 13 owners could tell. Was there a 14?

Love the simplicity of this car! 👌🏾 My current car is like a spaceship!
Loved my '80s Honda Civic, so light, small and economical.
In the 70s the heater was an optional extra. And before that electric windscreen wipers was optional compared with the standard manual wipers.
They need to make cars like this again, a no bells and whistles car
Even if they did, they would charge new car prices or even higher since fewer features would be a novelty from the company’s perspective
SADLY because of safety regulations they would hardly let these exist but I like where your head is at. I want cheaper cars that purely serve the purpose of "A to B" with a couple bells and whistles like AC.
Dacia said they would but they do it only half hearted. Probably more people say they will buy such a car but only a few do.
It’s called the Mitsubishi Mirage
@@Outlaw_Official They exist. Nissan Versa, etc. They're just boring chiclets that nobody cares about. They don't have the kitsch-value of the 84 civic.
I noticed it does have a cigarette lighter, though! 1980s necessity.
Thought about removing one that dont work and putting a dual charge usb outlet in its place. I learned a long time ago never plug your phone in the one that comes with the vehicle. They steal data that the car doesnt need. 73
My first real car was one of these! I think mine was an 82 but you know. Mine was fancy though - mine had a passenger side mirror and A/C. No radio though! I LOVED that car - it was so tough and amazing. I drove it for like 10 years with practically no maintenance, and then the front brakes finally went to metal and I parked it for A YEAR in the parkling lot of the apartments where I lived. When it was finally time to move on (finished grad school), I sold it to someone for $200. I was amazed and strangely proud when the guy came out, paid me, doodled around with it for about 20 minutes and got it running. Drove it away after all that! I still love that car.
Had one of these the GTi version. Superb car. But even the top of the range had no central locking, no electric windows either! No air con etc!
I have a 4 door 87 Honda 5 speed civic with 270k miles and still runs great
I used to have an '84 Civic. It was filling loaded with everything except the automatic transmission. I loved that car.
Automatic transmission is not an upgrade

I worked at Honda Lithia dealership back in 07/08 and oil change in Honda cars was so simple! Other than the Hybrid! Some people bringing in accords with 430,000 miles and still good condition.
They’re gonna need to bring this style back immediately cause that looks so nice on the inside
It does I love simplicity
Car companies would get so much respect from a lot of people if they started remaking old cars while keeping the old design but improving the quality of life, safety, and details of the car.
A great example of this is the electric Ford F-100 Eluminator concept from a few years ago. Kept the same design of the original Ford F-100 but made it electric and improved the interior. Honorable mention to the
