Default Legit: Photoshoot of 1st CRX ever made for North American market...
Got an oil change at Goderich Honda and discovered this gem sitting out front... The first CRX to roll off the line for the North American market.

This is the one Honda used for their promotions and advertisements as well. And it was eventually released for re-sale and it had one owner before Goderich Honda bought it.











































Oh and check out the vin#







Epic!

Like the letter says... The 2nd or 3rd car could have reached America first.

But this one was still the first to roll off the line.
