CRX Si
Strength:
Lightning quick. Durability - My car has 233,000 miles on it but you would never know it driving it or looking at it. Economical - High 30's on MPG. Spacious for a little car - I am 6'4" and with the seat back my legs and arms are almost fully extended.
Weakness:
You'll notice in other reviews about speeding tickets. This is no joke! With it's 108 hp engine and light body weight this car begs to be driven. Seriously, this car has no weaknesses. In a word, WOW! I just bought this car from a friend. I'm already blown away by how fast this car is. The CRX is the total package: Quick, great looking car, comfortable to drive, lots of after-market parts AND I just got 36 MPG on my first tank before tuning up anything on the car. I could go on but I'll write another review after I've had the car longer. In conclusion: If you can find one, buy one. You won't be dissapointed. Similar Products Used: 89 240 SX - Cool car, but the CRX blows it away. 78 Toyota Celica - Great car back in the day, but still bested by the Rex. |

Strength:
cornering and handling are top notch
Weakness:
HF and DX models have little horsepower I bought a super clean crx- hf model. I love the handling of this car. The is little body roll. After I got 17 inch enkeis and yokohama parada tires car corners extremely well. Intake and exhaust adds a noticable difference. I want more power so the only other option now is engine swap to B16A. HP goes from 70 to 160 at the wheel. I would recommend a crx for anyone who wants a fun car on a budget! Similar Products Used: honda accord, mazda protege |

Strength:
Reliability, great cornering, surprising all-around performance, good mileage (hey, my civic has good mileage too, so 35-40mpg is nothing to shake a stick at anymore), constant confrontations about if the car is for sale or not, even though there''s no hint of it being for sale at all. People just LOVE these cars.
Weakness:
Squeaky rear suspension, half working moon roof (i think it''s the switch), rare parts cars to find in junkyards (like i said, people love ''em. They don''t want to let ''em go) I have to say, this car impresses me to no end. I bought it for cheap because it didn''t run too well, and 5 bucks and 10 minutes later (premium gas and spark plug/distributor cleaning) and it ran like a champ. I don''t care what anyone says, this car is cool. I''ve only had it a few months, and I''ve already fallen in love with it. I''ve had a 95 civic for a couple years, and this is NOTHING compared to it. I''ve spent about 10K on my civic, and the crx can STILL whoop it on a straight line. I''m seriously considering selling my civic and running the rex just to save cash. What a great car. Similar Products Used: 87 Toyota 4x4, 2001 Toyota tacoma, ''98 Honda Accord v6 vtec, ''95 civic, ''89 Toyota 4runner, ''87 Jeep Wrangler 4.2. The crx would stomp them all, even the accord. Seriously! |

Strength:
Great MPG ( Avg. 35 MPG ) Handling Reliable Spacious cargo
Weakness:
Rear vision is a bit poor Hard to restrain yourself and avoid speeding tickets Before the CRX I had an economy version of the Mustang (4 cyl!). The gas mileage on the Mustang averaged 25 MPG and I thought that was impressive for a 4 banger. But the CRX blew me away with its average 35 MPG. PLUS the car handles a lot better than the Mustang. The suspension is very tight and inspires confidence. Yes, it''s bumpy and you can feel every nook in the road but it''s designed for fun loving people, not for old farts who want a smooth ride. Get a Cadillac if you want that. People are always surprised how much room there is in it. I''ve carried chairs, computers, and even a 3rd passenger in the back. As for repairs, I''ve had to do some but they were due anyway (replace fuel pump, water pump) While I don''t visit the mechanic very often, each visit is a bit expensive, averaging over $200. But I figure that''s a lot better than going back and forth for cheap repairs. Overall, this is great for single people and even the insurance is pretty cheap. I need it because I''m a young white male! Similar Products Used: Economy version of Ford Mustang ''86 |
