I wasn't driving it , luckely..found it on some German CRX site..

It may not be the worst crx-crash pictures I've seen but it pretty much gives an indication how "shitty" the CRX's chassis' strength actually is.. You can clearly see how the car is twisted in the length.. brrrrrrrrr

i dobt this was the drivers fault, it looks like it was hit from behind and pushed into another car in front of him, like siting at a stop light. sucks for him, a friend of mine just had the same thing happen to him in his ef. the car that hit him was doing 50mph on impact, hit so hard that the car is bent like a v. now only 2 wheels touch the ground at a time, you can rock it back and forth on the frame like a seesaw.

was going to reply "victim of the autobahn?" but then I looked at the pictures again - it's a ZC-equipped (D16A8/9) trim level, whatever they call those in Germany (is it still a 16v-1.6i)? Check out the spoiler on top of the factory spoiler and the US Civic Si hubbies!

A roll bar wouldn't help much in a crash like this...but a full roll CAGE (12 pt) would...as it surrounds the driver in a "Cage" instead of just having a "Bar" in case you roll over....
