Newcomer from France

Hi everyone!

Alix, 32 yo from France, near Paris.

I'm the happy owner of this 1990 CB7, as my daily car, since the end of July



I own also a 1990 Prelude 3rd gen and a 1997 Civic 6th gen sedan.

Look forward to reading you

Thanks

Thanks I find it looks like a "yakuza" car with this color, it's one of the reasons I gave in when I was searching for the car

Welcome to the forums Alix! Always nice to see more European owners join. Is your CB7 2ws or 4ws? France was one of few countries to get the left hand drive 4ws version, I didn't even know they existed until quite recently.

Anyway car looks good, give us more pics please, some of interior too. I've always liked the 90-91 black velour seats with red stripes

What chassis code would a LHD 4WS car even be? CB3, still?

And it seems like it's been a trend for many of the European members to come here with their new CB and already have a stable of other Hondas.

To answer your question Jarrett, it would be CB7 since 4ws only came on the 2.2i (F22A3, F22A7) model in Europe. Only Japan had special chassis numbering for 4ws models.

As far as I know 4ws was standard in UK (RHD) on 2.2i model along with full equipment, leather etc. Kind of like an USDM SE with added 4ws. It was optional on LHD 2.2i models in some other EU countries.

Just to mention the majority of CB Accords in Europe are 2.0 CB3, carburated and fuel injected.

Welcome, Alix! The car looks great. Is that a black leather interior?

The founder of this site is now living near Paris, I believe!

My CB7 is a 4ws version. In France, the 2ws CB7 version is quite rare. I've a friend who own a 2ws version precisely ^^

It's actually in good condition, especially the interior, and important, no rust!

My interior is the black-and-red-striped velour indeed no pb for pics, I'll post them in a new thread in the Gallery

I'm surprised about France and LHD 4ws version because we are usually the country with the fewest models and options available, especially true for Honda lol

Anyway, I saw your car topic, very nice and clean project! I love it!

No it's the black-and-red-striped velour interior, very cozy by the way lol

Really? Cool Is he still active on the forum?

[deevergote]

Not very. He'll appear every once in a while, but rarely. He passed the forum to me in 2005, when he sold his CB7.

Black and red striped, eh? Sounds cool! We don't have anything like that in our CBs in the US!

ok I see... I'll create a thread In the Europe section of Regional when I could ^^ who's know?

Really? What kind of interior do you have in US? I saw beige. In France, I believe we haven't this color, just black (like mine) or grey velour and black or grey leather.

Anyway, yes I confirm it's a cool interior, I love it

Our interior fabric is boring compared to yours. Solid color or two-tone, but no real pattern. Light gray, blue, tan, brown, maroon, and black (only in the rare Phoenix Red coupe). We also have black and tan leather in SE models (light gray leather in Canadian SE)

Really? I'm very surprised in fact because in Europe and more precisely in France, we generally have the fewest choice in terms of models and options (particularly true for Honda)

Sweet car!
