Third Generation Civic
For the third generation, the wheelbase was increased by 5 inches (13 cm) to 96.5 inches (245 cm). A 3-door hatchback, 4-door sedan, 4-door “Shuttle” wagon, and CRX coupe shared common underpinings, but the body panels were completely different for each bodystyle, with nothing interchangeable beyond the front bumper and headlights. The sedan and hatchback shared the same dashboard, but the CRX and wagons both had their own unique dash (CRX having a covered cubby in the middle of the dash, the wagon having a pop up set of vents which could be used or retracted into the dash).
Second Generation Civic
The Civic 1300 and 1500 came in base and DX versions, and the latter featured a five-speed manual transmission, rear window defroster, intermittent wipers and a cigar lighter. The 1500 GL added radial tires, a rear window wiper/washer, tachometer, clock and bodyside moldings. The Civic wagon came in a single version that was similar to the DX trim level.
Third Generation Accord
The third generation Accord was introduced in Japan and Europe in 1985 and the rest of the world in 1986. The Accord had a very striking shape, and looked more akin to a sports car than a conventional 3-box sedan. It bore a resemblance to the second and third generation Prelude. One notable feature was the flip-up headlights, extremely unusual for a sedan. A fixed headlight version appeared in 1987 for European and Japanese markets. The fixed headlight version also had a different tail light cluster.
