      Crx really are beautiful cars.
      Got my second '91 crx a few months ago.
      They become a lot faster if you swap the transmission with a 90hp civic cause it's shorter translated.
      But I only recommend that if your transmission is already done bc it's a pain to replace it

I tell them never. I'm sure for the right price, but until I get that $10k+ offer, I will keep my beautiful 1990 HF.

    I've had the same 89 Dx CRX for +9 years now. Have gone from stock Dual-Port to PMFI to Mini-Me to b16
    Manual Steering, Cable Clutch, No ABS, instant throttle response, short wheelbase and one of the lowest centers of gravity you will ever find.
    Over the years it has gone from daily to project, to track n show, back to project and now only sees Sunday drives. I plan to keep it for many more years.
    Still a blast to take out. Not something I want to road trip in or even commute in after all the mods tho. Would love to find another stock one to daily again.

After I did what I did to mine people on the streets were offering me about 9500 to 10000 back in 12 , 14 go forward now with the B16B at 200HP Plus and the paint and carbon and brakes its like the Price cap is going to break the low 12000 to 15000. Just look at the price of a fairly decent B16B there about 6500 hundred or so now when you could get them for 3500 the price has doubled guys. These are becoming rare and collectors in there own right. Good luck out there.

    $8K for a good condition CRX? I've been dealing with low mileage CRX sellers asking for $20K to $30K. For only $8K, that's a steal. Unless it's one of those that has 100K or above miles.

    These cars are old. My 1997 Del Sol si is 25 years old with 206,000 miles. The CRX is much older. The ones that are left
    are survivors who had some help. Most were beat up are and few remain. In my case I am an original owner. I knew I wanted
    this car. It looks good runs good. It easily does 100 miles per hour with the ability for more. This is a 25 year old car!

    I see you are in a sunny climate my man. The type 2 does almost not excist here anymore. I live in the north of Europe.. They like to rust. You probably heard of this from the eas of the US, salting the roads, rain. And they where made from 1988 last one sold was 1992 (on paper) in the Netherlands. That is pretty old for a car😉. Then again: Try finding a golf mark 2 gti 16v even the Germans have scrapped them out of existence.
