2022 Market Review - Honda 600-800/9/CRX/Civic/City 1964-2006
Local values for Honda’s ‘hot hatches’ are being driven by international demand for these cars. Let’s start with S600/S800s from the 1960s; almost impossible to source here, scarce even in Europe and can make $50-60,000.
Early CRX coupes have made strong gains too; up from less than $10,000 in 2015 to almost $30,000 now and dragging the less desirable, post-91 cars along with them.
Civics of all kinds are enjoying gains, although 1970-80s cars still look underpriced. Type R Civics come in various guises, none of them cheap, however the hottest Civic on the block is the Japanese-spec FN2 with 165kW that you can drive on a Provisional licence; something that in some places can’t be done with an 81kW City because it has a turbocharger.
