That's my car now. While it is not the same as the magazine article, it is still a great car. It is now FC7 (Plum Crazy) with a correct 440/Six-Pack and 4-speed. We acquired it in 2018. The paint was done by a full rotisseri restoration in 2005. The original engine was lost, but current one is year correct. It is an original "V" code car.

This was taken at a show somewhere in the midwest. It was named "Heat Wave" and its license plate was " I Whine"

Current photo as it is today. It is a looker and gets attention when out and about..

I also have the Feb 1986 Car Craft magazine that the OP posted the article from.

I wonder how many youngsters are proud to pose with their girlfriends in front of their Honda Civics today?

Oh, there are a few that are stupid enough to think that a civic is cool, but I don't think that there will be many going to prom like these as most high schools still don't encourage boys taking their boyfriends to dances...

Unless it's a Civic Type R, which would blow my road runner into the weeds with its sub 5 second 0-60 times....
