    Well, the CA6 was only made in 1988 and 1989...so they're fairly rare.

    Welcome! When you get to 5 posts, put up some pics of your car for us. The coupes were only sold in 88 and 89 in North America. Americans couldn't get past their conceptions of the hatchback as an econo car, so Honda introduced the Coupe just for them. They are rare in the sense that they aren't ubiquitous, but not in the sense that they are worth a lot of money...yet.

    As I recall, the 88-89 coupes were only U.S. built and were actually the first Hondas that were IMPORTED into Japan.

    CA6:
    - second "import" built in the United States (after the second-gen hatch?)
    - first "import" (not just first Honda) exported back to native country

    I would say they're kind of rare since they only made them for 2 years, but its still a 3g accord and they're all awesome. Do you have a budget for performance parts?....btw Welcome!
