Default Crx owners why did you like your crx?

Its lame, but why?

I'll go first, I love being able to park into any spot I want, love being able to pull a 180 with little effort, and taking the turnarounds at overpass intersections doing 50-60mph and just barely making the tires screetch. I also love the fact that it can be 90+ degrees here in Texas and the only thing I need to be nice and cool is a loud but clear radio, an open sunroof and both windows rolled down.

I like my 87SI crx because it runs, only cost 250 you can fit two of them in a lane.
Takes cheap gas and gets mad props from da Hoes...

I love everything about my CRX. It's light, quick, nimble, and a 2 seater.

That's not the car's fault, it's yours. Get to work, and get that baby the way you like it.
Mine was not good looking when I got it, but I liked the overall package. Plus I knew the potential it had. After a year, I've got it looking great and still have a way to go.

I have always liked them even before imports were big around by me. I like the way they look I like the way the interior feels when your in them and yeah back when I was in high school it was nice cause I didnt have people asking me for rides everywhere since it was a 2 seater. But also back in high school I got a lot of **** fromk the mustang and camaro people but oh well not like I gave a **** what they thought anyway...lol. Now sometimes it can be a pita since it is a 2 seater but oh well planning on a buying another car anyway.

That's why you need 2 cars. The CRX is my personnal car, which I daily drive. But when I need to do something with other people, I take my TL Type-S.

I love my crx, i bought it for cheap, has a terrible paint job, dented fender, there were other problems, but i've had it two weeks and i have been working almost everyday to make it purty again, it'll be completley stock, and used as a commuter right now, but who knows what it has in its future...only time will tell.

What I dont like is that everyone else, even the scummy theives, gotta like crx's too. i had an 89 si and it got stolen and totally demolished after two months of me owning it.

I love mine because back in the day I remember seeing a CRX for the first time. the kid went to my high school and he had 15 inch chrome MOMO quasars whick were huge for the time and he had a wooden MOMO steering wheel. I thought damn I gotta have one! I now have a 89' Si thats a dual purpose track car that eats up v8 cars at Sears Point in the more tight sections. Its supercharged and I'm itchin for more boost !!!!!

My cars clean in and out... the whole turning and parking thing is always sweet... especially in washington dc... and you arent going to get a better "damnit to hell" look from all the other honda peeps... i've even had S2000 guys telling me they wish they could get a CRX as clean as mine.... and no one has mentioned the 35+ mpg... at least i get that... 40 mpg on a road trip easy... especially when you draft a big truck... hell you dont even have to use any gas, they just pull you right along. oh and the women think its "cute"....

2 years before i got my license, i always liked how they looked, but i couldnt afford one. When i was 16 and i had some more money, i found one for dirt cheap and picked it up. I like how the car is only a 2 seater yet it has a lot of room. If i wanna give ppl a ride i can fit them in the back, if i dont, i have a good excuse. The car handles awesome and has some zip. If i were to buy a civic, i would always be telling people"its a civic but its an Si" now all i have to say is "its a CRX" and they dont make fun of me.

Comfortable and nice interior
You can see alot through the rear view mirror
Sporty looks
2 seats but very roomy
Turning radius is awesome
Throw some koni's coilovers and bars and it handles like its on rails
Good gas mileage
Lots of aftermarket parts
Easy to park
Easy to make fast
Chicks dig it (cute car LOL)
One good 10 inch sub can sound like 3 12's (hatchback)
Lots of storage space for a 2 seater
It's a Honda
"CRX" sounds cool
oh yeah, and it doesn't cost a lot of $$$ (until you start modding it)
I did like it and i still do , in fact i love it

I've always liked two cars, one was the old school Chevy Nova and then the CRX. The CRX always had a pimp body style and was fun to drive. And the fact I traded a 400 dollar car for her and had no car payments. Besides, who needs car payments when you can have mod payments.

Even though Ive spent thousands on repairs, I still love my REX. It only cost me $225 bucks, its a 2 seater, girls think its cute, kids think its fast, one 10" sub beats like nothin else, weaving in and outta traffic and not worrying is fun, people think my 17's are 19's, it cost me 4 quarters to wash my car at the manual wash since I can walk around the car a dozen tmes in 1 minute, CRX sounds cool, it has an awesome body desighn, and its a CRX.
