Good day everyone. My 91 EX is about to turn 250k miles, still runs pretty good, looks good with no rust, but I'm just not sure if I want to continue with it. It's my daily driver and everything works on it (including cruise and a/c), but it needs a compressor now, tires soon, uses about 1.5 quarts of oil between changes, and has a bunch of squeaks and rattles.
I've completely redone all the suspension parts; springs, struts, bushings
I've completely redone the front brakes; ROH conversion, new lines and pads
I changed the timing belt, balance belt, water pump, all the engine seals, plugs, etc. a while ago, but I still have a vibration at idle.
For a replacement, I thought about these:
2009-2011 civic
2012+ Ford focus
2008+ Mazda3
I don't know if I'm bored with it, or just tired of it using oil, the squeaks and rattles, and I personally think weak a/c (even though it's been checked is blows as it should). I really really really don't want a car payment with higher insurance coverage, but I really don't know.
The issue though; nothing newer sold today really inspires me like the cb7 did.
