Post pics of your ride!
The chick I bought it from said she bought it from a friend in Dec.... She couldn't get the hang of driving a 5-speed so she sold it. It was listed on CL for 1k. I ended up finding out I worked with the chick after someone mentioning there was some chick trying to sell a CRX. Also found out she only wanted 650 for it... Score!
So my fix list starts out with:
Brakes, axles, and radiator. Obvious tune-up. Better set of adjustable coil springs. Either find out root cause of random beeping or find speaker and disconnect. Replace driver side fender. Fix the driver side door-stay. Legit intake instead of advanced auto special. Replace rusty exhaust. Bumper lights. Front corner lights. Fix license plate lights (which I got pulled for tonight). Replace rear 6x9s with proper 6.5"s in proper brackets. Tint. A/c recharge and extensive body work in the spring. Possible z6 head in the works. Other than that I'm gonna leave it alone.
Nice na Cindy.
Got my package from DHL today, car hasn't been washed in ages and direct sunlight makes the paint look orange but here it is:

They're a little darker than I expected so now I'll have to smoke the front corners a bit more than I was anticipating to match:

If you can believe it I still don't have my wheels back. (41 days and counting) I'm going to look at a townhouse this weekend in Radford, like three days before classes start.

Already got one lined up and I think its free? Just needs valves...
So lets check off some junk. Radiator, cap/rotor/plugs/wires, light bulbs, more front loooows...
Coming soon: better coil springs, z6 head/arp head studs/p28, rotors/pads, axles, finish tune up, marker lenses, begin temporary hoodride stage, header back exhaust, intake...

The majority of stuff you listed is reliability based,but the "hoodride status" makes me wonder,haha.Before long you have two cars that are both too low/too loud/too dope
/etc.
