  • My first festiva

    I've had my Festiva for several weeks now but haven't posted it up yet. Just wanted to say this is a great community and thanks for all the help. She's a work in progress... I like the rain picture, makes the paint look real nice BTW its an 89 lx auto and Im getting 30mpg for now. Edit: 68,000 original miles.

      Nice stiva!! Love me some black Festiva goodness!! It is rather amazing how much a little water improves the paint job, eh?

      Slick's missing half his clear coat, but throw a little water on him, and he looks all shiny and new.

                  I was the first to post on this and didnt see the low mileage! I bought mine six months ago with 204,xxx miles, now it has 220,xxx miles. You got the gold mine, thats incredibly low miles!

                    Yeah I probably overpaid for this goldmine, but opportunity seldom knocks twice. Plus, in my area no cars go for cheap, and lets face it, overpaying for a Festiva is still underpaying for almost any other car!
