Honda Civic 3rd Gen listings 55 for sale now
The 3rd generation Honda Civic, sold from 1984-1987, was a significant step forward for the nameplate. Known in Japan as the “Wonder Civic,” it featured a distinctive, angular design and a variety of body styles including a 3-door hatchback, a 4-door sedan, a tall wagon called the Shuttle, and the sporty CRX coupe. Honda introduced advanced engineering for its class, with front double wishbone suspension on most models, creating a car praised for its sharp handling and efficient packaging.
Collectors appreciate the 3rd gen Civic for its pure, lightweight driving experience and quintessential 1980s aesthetic. The fuel-injected Si models, available in both hatchback and CRX forms, are the most desirable variants thanks to their rev-happy 1.5L engines and agile chassis. These cars represent a golden era for Honda, combining reliability and economy with genuine driver involvement, making them a cornerstone of the early import tuning scene.
Buying Tips
- Rust is the biggest enemy. Check thoroughly around the rear wheel arches, rocker panels, sunroof drains, and floor pans.
- The D-series engines are reliable, but check for oil leaks from the distributor O-ring and valve cover gasket. A recent timing belt service is a major plus.
- Interior plastics and fabrics are often brittle and cracked after 35+ years. Finding clean dashboards, door cards, and seat upholstery is difficult.
- Many were heavily modified. Stock, original examples are rare and far more valuable. Scrutinize any aftermarket wiring, engine swaps, or suspension work.
