CRX's are death traps and they do have their faults also, i.e. they rot like f**k round the aerial, and also the rear arches

they do go like stink though

how many CRX's do u see nowadays?? not many, and thats why the price is extorionate

same goes for the old civic 16v's & vtec's

i think jap mobiles are actually really well built. for the money an evo 7 has to be one of the quickest cars you can buy, not just in a straight line but round bends aswell.

prezza's are just poor mans evo's and skylines, well, theyre not as quick as theyre hyped up to be. a mate has a gtr v-spec one and another of my mates has a 350bhp cossie. the cossie wastes it from start to finish its as if the skyline was a 1litre fiesta racing an rs turbo.

i mean vw's are built well, ive noticed that the last few days from lying underneath mine fixing stuff, and yeah, the gti ive got on a b reg 1985 is far far cleaner than my j reg nova gsi. a lot more solid so they are going to outlast most cars about.

crx's, oh dear, what a terrible car. i guess they designed the back seats around small japanese people.

theyre not bad cars, i like the look of them and its a honda so its gonna be reliable as hell with a 9k rev limit.

cant see any downside really, easy engines to turbo apparantly.
