2nd Gen Crx Was The Best! — Best little damn car ever! I always had the si's - Recaro seats with side bolsters, great ergonomics - handles like a go cart - fantastic gas mileage.... FUN FUN FUN! I had 4 of them over a period of several years, (2nd gen - 88 - 91) and may go back again! (it's an illness other CRX fans may understand!) Also - they are great for sound systems because of the tight quarters. :) 88 was the only year that didn't have the passive restraint attached to the door - it weighed less, and was the best for a track car..... but the 90 and 91 had disc brakes all around.... their all good, though! |

I Don't Regret Buying An Automatic Crx-it Was A Great Car. — liked all the Genuine Honda accessories-5 spoke rims, armrest, equilizer and foglights and the CRX embroidered front 1/2 bra; didn't like the autotragic tranny. I really liked the lower hatch window when parking; it was excellent in being able to judge space-my previous CRX didn't have this and parking in Richmond's Fan District is already a complicated exercise without bumper tapping (I have no problem parallel parking-but people will leave lots of space behind them and hope nobody parks in front of them).

The Japs Knew How To Make A Car That Is Very Easy To Turn Into A Great Race Car. — Sporty, Great on gas! new exhaust but it's not a loud buzzing exhaust. just a walker performance slightly louder than stock. Great engine with 100,000+ miles on it. car is really fun to drive. bilstein shocks and springs. rotors all around. great brakes. interior upholstery needs re-upholstering but its not disgusting just floor mats need the crx label restiched and new seats were put in. its been through a few bumps and dings, window cracks from track days(i hate rocks) slid down our snowy driveway into the chrysler but barely any damage. rust around the wheel wells is common among the crx's. but excellent car Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) |

Love It!!!!!!!!!!!! Will Own Another Or Multiple Ones — Performance - Sky is the limit, you can make it what you want. A drag car, a nostalgic piece of automotive history, a road course racer, a daily commuter. Build - It's a HONDA nuff said. It's my first and definitely not my last Appearance - Love it. Cost of ownership - Relatively cheap, if it has been well cared for, mind you it's over 20 years old. Fun Factor - Sky is the limit. I love mine fun to drive, all around great daily driver or spirited driving car. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) |

Honda Crx — Fantastic car and will always be a classic in terms of performance fuel economy and just an all around piece of engineering. If anyone is thinking of buying one GET IT! Its cheap, fun, and my favorite car ive ever driven. The only downside is they stopped making them 20 years ago so most of them are rust buckets and have a ton of miles because no one wanted to take care of a honda. Cannot praise this car enough!!! Primary Use: Commuting to work |

Theres Nothing Like It — I love this car, Handles like a go-kart while getting excellent gas mileage and above average acceleration. I plan on making a mini me, Or a B series swap by the end of summer. The cars in good shape, Just working on some rust removal, Its a 1988 Y-49 so it has "the curse" which to me is just rust!
