Aerodeck Exclusive Edition - I'm proud to join the aerodeck club

[thegreatdane]

Got it from Germany just this evening. It's from march 1989, has black leather interior in as close to perfect condition as it gets, had 1 owner and 111k miles. I found two very small rust spots on it, 1)at the left rear fender 2)and on the tailgate + a small dent under the vent door trim but that should be easy to get fixed. The right armrest holder thing in the back is missing and the back seat is not mounted correctly. Oh and the rear honda badge is missing. That's about the flaws i found so far here in the dark.
I paid 800 euro (1075 dollars) for it, which is damn cheap for it's condition.

Beware, it's a little dirty.

[Busted_Blue]

dude i'll buy that gauge cluster from you

motor looks like it needs alot of TLC. but good stuff. Interior looks neat!

[thegreatdane]

Yea, the engine and engine bay is real dirty but it runs good.

Just curious, why would you want the gauge cluster?

[Vanilla Sky]

it's in KM/H only... throws us yanks off... well, the ones not familiar with metrics...

BTW... is it just me, or does that aerodeck look more like a sports car than the US hatch?

[TheSummoner101]

my guesss:
1. its super clean
2. its in km/h

[thegreatdane]

Lol ok, you're into the metric scale.

[Busted_Blue]

no i just like the parking brake icon and the triangle =)

[88accordhb]

motor looks like it was fished out of the pooper, but inter is awesome!

[88accordalltheway]

holy jesus that BLACK leather is really nice. I want to do my interior all black. Holy jesus that is my (realistic) dream car(not the engine bay though). That thing is very close to being mint. Hey why dont you send that thing to me? Whats up with the red front turn corners? extremely good find!

[EricW]

I love that interior I wish mine was black leather like that.

[shane_lxi]

I hate you. I want it, I'll give you 3k, and pay for shipping, lol. Nice car. I have wanted one since I saw how much potential they had (see pauls aerodeck!!!). Nice car, especially the black leather.

[BlueBead]

Damn! I love that car......'cept that engine bay needs simple green more badly than mine...
Good Find!
I am also extremely Jealous....

[thegreatdane]

Thanks guys, but stop bashing the engine he he

I'll get some day time pics of the car today after I give it a good scrub and clean.
To correct myself I have to say that it only has 1 rustspot, and thats on the rear fender. The spot on the tailgate was just dirt that looked like rust in the dark. I dont think it's ever been taken out in the winter, it's in an incredible condition.

Oh, and one more thing. The headlights wont retract, only open. I checked the fuses, they're ok. Is it the control unit or what could the issue be?

[SteveDX89]

Wow! That thing is incredible. The interior looks perfect. I'm jealous as well.

[thegreatdane]

It was the retractor switch that caused the lights not to go down. Need to get a new one.
A bit blurry daytime pictures after a good scrub and clean, and i waxed the seats:

[88accordalltheway]

are you sure that its an 89? it looks to be 86 or 87 because of the front bumper and the molding... Are those stock corners? i think you should drop it(like its hot ) put some coil overs on that thing!

[shane_lxi]

Dude, please tell me that square aluminum thing is just your garage, lol. NIce car, I wish we could get them here. Is the hood oxydyzed, or is it just cold there?

[SteveDX89]

The hatchbacks used the same front bumper from 86-89. It was the 86-87 style. That's probably true of the Aerodecks as well. That thing looks so hot. It needs a drop and new wheels tho. I love it!

In Europe, the 3g's feature the same bumper style throughout all years.
However the Aerodeck's has a small lip on the front bumper. It's gonna get dropped like it's haawt.
The corners are stock. That's how they look in Europe.

What, the Fiat? It's pimp! Lol
It's just cold here that's why there's dew on the car. The winter is coming.

Correct. And yea, 17" inch rims, a drop and a fart can will set it off real good. But it will get stored for the winter. And it looks like it's been stored for the winter all it's life.

Very nice looking leather for that age especially. Awesome deal. But for the love of all things human and sane, CLEAN THAT ENGINE BAY! lol. Simple green works wonders. Overall, nice investment.

[Mike's89AccordLX]

Oh my..... I'm tearing up just wishing I could own an aerodeck.... That is just awesome, fricken get everything but the nice jdm motor That can be fixed though.

Can't wait to see it once you start modding it.

Leave that interior alone though!!! Oh so nice

[bullard123]

Yes I agree with everyone else the leather seats look good. Makes me want to go find a old Sei in the junkyard now. You got a pretty good deal on that car man.

[86LXItooFAST4me]

so the leather is factory or did someone have that done?

PS- I STILL WANT AN AERODECK

[hkplayer]

true, i wonder if the seats are re-done...nonetheless it looks fantabulous...but i am still not an aerodeck or hatch fan...yet

[thegreatdane]

Thanks. The leather is the original from the factory. Only made with leather in '89 in a limited production. So it's in a pretty good shape.
