In 1987 Honda introduced the 4th generation of the Civic. This was an enormous leap in quality and performance for the Civic. With this car Honda finally penetrated the market for premium cars. In general the 4th gen Civic was praised by the international motoring press for high build quality, performance, roadholding, double-wishbone suspension and their advanced 16-valve engines which were considered "jewels" in engine technology. The 1989 version was a mild facelift with a slightly different frontbumper and different rearlights and a red bar in between the rearlights. Chassiscodes for the 1989 4-door saloon were ED3 ( ( 1.5 liter fuel-injection engine ), ED4 ( 1.6 liter SOHC fuel-injection engine ) and ED5 ( which was the same as ED4 but with all-wheel drive ) for the LHD versions. RHD versions for Japan ( Australia, New Zealand, RHD Asia, maybe UK ) had chassiscodes EF3, EF4 and EF5 respectively. There were some slight differences in details regarding lighting depending upon country of admission. So we will build these Civic models on order only, custom built. And of course you can choose LHD or RHD versions. Until now no model of this Civic was ever available in 1:43. Customers can place an order through the order form, or email us with desired specification.
