JDM Grey Market: 2000 Honda HR-V


Before the HR-V became a normal crossover for normal people doing normal crossover things, it was this: a tall, weird, Honda fun box from Japan with a D16 4-banger, five doors, and just enough ride height to feel adventurous without pretending it wants to climb a mountain. It was never offered for sale in the USA, so you will have to find a grey market version like this example — but pay attention to your state’s licensing requirements for these JDM classics…because it does vary and you can end up in hot water if you aren’t careful. Find this 2000 Honda HR-V offered for $9995 in Athens, TN via facehonda marketjdm.

I think these were pretty cool when I first saw them a couple years ago. It has a 5spd which is necessary (IMO) given this motor . Wish it was a 3 door and in either blue or citrus color for more JDM quirkiness.
Just realized this is FWD not AWD, hard pass. Move along. :)
