New home Festiva 1990 LX

[Slyder]

^ Its a 1990 Lx, the seats are factory, are you sure about the decals, before me my uncle owned the car for 11 years and they've always been there, also it says "Festiva" on the bottom side.



Thats supposed to be a pic of the seats but its not very good.

The car is about 30 miles from me. When I saw it I couldnt believe it. I wanted it. It has 73,000 on it. The owner told me his uncle wanted it. Not because in was a 90 lx with all the cool stuff , but just because it was an automatic ( whatever ). Also I had to buy all the cars, not just one car or one part but the whole group. I still have the owners #. Just waiting for the right time. I couldnt decide on it at the time. I didnt want them all. A couple of them were of little use to me( already had those models ).

If it must be group cars to buy, it would be 4 Festivas? Out the curious, how much he want?

The gearshift of the 88 and 89 had a different style, shorter and all rubber...and they had a tachometer. Your door panels look like LX panels, but I never saw a 90 interior before. The seats look like my 93 GL, not like my 88 LX. Do you have intermittent wipers or just fast and slow? LX models had intermittent wipers.

that looks like an L Plus

and the side stripes were most likely added by the dealer, before the car was originally sold. Often used to 'set apart' a lower contented vehicle, to help it sell.

I did a tranny swap which is why the gearshift looks that way, i got bored of auto. as for my wipers i just have slow and fast.

Really? hmm i guess it could be. Another reason i dont think it is is because it says LX on the back



you cant really see it here but its the best pic i have right now.

[FB71]

ok, that explains a few things. An auto car would not have had a tach. Interval wipers were still an option on the LX, not standard. And yes, the LX on the hatch certainly does clarify it! Did someone paint the rear bumper cover black? Factory finish would have been charcoal gray with a red stripe inset, like the side molding.

[Slyder]

^ Nope the red stripe is worn off (theres a little bit left on the left side) and it is charcoal gray i just used some interior cleaner to tryin brighten it up.

Jim, He is in canada. All the LXs here that I've seen don't have all the options US LXs had.. I've seen a few LXs in my day and none of them have had a full console, int wipers, tilt column, cargo light, to name a few.
Also I know for a FACT we didn't get tach clusters up here.

[FB71]

ah, makes even more sense now.

Really? My LX with auto came with a tach. It was a 1 owner unmolesated car.

USA Festiva with LX must be special... I always wondering why Canada don't get nice tach which should have similer from other country in kph letter/number like what Damkid had.

Maybe were banned for selling full load Festiva LXs to canada :lol:
