No. That car is absolutely gorgeous! Fake dual exhaust? Not a chance bro. One of my boys has "fake dual exhaust" on his CRX, but the thing is that it's actually a dual exhaust. It costs alot, and does wonders for the engine, especially if it's a B series transplant.

unless he has 2 catalysts, and a manifold feeding each, its not a TRUE dual exhaust. Unless he split his exhaust ports into two different collectors, its not a real dual exhaust.

it may have 2 outlets, and even two mufflers, but its not dual.its really hard to make a single cylinder bank engine(inline) a true dual exhaust.-chet

Wow, a frickin CRX with a turbocharger/different engine...who the hell cares? Not me anyway, the car still looks like crap and I'm sure doesn't handle very well either...

I think the car looked alright, I like the dual exhaust, but that is his way of being unique and not copying evreybody else by putting a gay Bltiz kit style body kit or those lame robot graphics from the lame Fast and Furious. But its all our own opinions

Hell, if its fast.......But if I lived in Australia like this guy I would have bought a 240, I guess they call it like 200sx over there. Comes with the Sr20 in it from the factory, why are we always the ones getting assed out of all the cool ****?

I love CRXs....they are small and light. IMO ,beside the NSX and S2000, CRX is one of the best cars that Honda makes. I like that Rex btw...it is very clean and tastefully done.

I guess the same could be said about a Toyota Tercel then as well. It's just as light as the CRX, gets the same gas milage, if not better, than the CRX, and looks about the same as CRX..like crappy little ****-box cars designed by a mentally-retarded 5th grader.

That CRX looks extremely ugly, there are 3 insanly fast CRXs in my town that look much better.

12.5 sohc turbo, copper, NO RIMS, just 00 Si wheels, very clean. That is one of many. I'm thoroughly unimpressed by this car.

I dont believe tercels are as light as a CRX. Do you see any tercel running even close 13s? How can you compare the two? They are two different class of cars. Its like comparing a Civic coupe to an MR2. So you saying boxy cars are ugly? What is wrong with boxy cars? The back end of a S13 coupe is boxy so is the AE86 and many other cars. But people are entitled to their own opinions and so am I.

Those tails are hideous. Otherwise it isn't too bad. I think hondas look better stock, lowered with 16's or si rims.

Please don't compare the crx to the tercel, a tercel was my first car and they are underpowered horrors. Btw, the tercel wagons before the last generation aren't small, I compared mine to a corrolla (my second car, not all that bad, just underpowered) and the tercel was the same length, taller, and wider. The crx is much smaller than even the last generation of tercel and provides much better upgrades (think b16)

Besides making the error of comparing a CRX to a NSX and S2000, CRX WAS one of the "best" cars that honda MADE.

I like it. I'd lost the spoiler and powdercoat the rims to match the car, but otherwise it's sweet.

I had an 84 Si that I abused mercilessly. What a fun car. Too bad Honduh quit making it.

Hmmm....since you questioned the validity of my comparison, (as did yellows13) I feel obliged to explain my reasoning. Let's play a game of comparison! All specs taken from edmunds.com

1992 Toyota Tercel DX 2 door: (what my friend has)Base Number of Cylinders: 4 Base Engine Size: 1.5 liters Base Engine Type: Inline 4 Horsepower: 82 hp Max Horsepower: 5200 rpm Torque: 89 ft-lbs. Max Torque: 4400 rpm Drive Type: FWD Turning Circle: 31.5 ft. Length: 161.8 in. Width: 64.8 in. Height: 53.2 in. Weight: 1975 lbs. Wheel Base: 93.7 in. Ground Clearance: 5.9 in.

1990 Honda Civic CRXBase Number of Cylinders: 4 Base Engine Size: 1.5 liters Base Engine Type: Inline 4 Horsepower: 92 hp Max Horsepower: 6000 rpm Torque: 89 ft-lbs. Max Torque: 4500 rpm Drive Type: FWD Turning Circle: 30.4 ft. Length: 148.5 in. Width: 65.9 in. Height: 50.1 in. Weight: 2103 lbs. Wheel Base: 90.6 in.

Hmm....lets see here...the civic weighs 128 lbs more than the Tercel, and has 10 more horsepower, and the same amount of torque at the same RPM...looks to me like they're almost spitting images of eachother, almost the same weight, horsepower, engine size, etc. While the CRX looks better than the Tercel, stock for stock, the performance of the engine, and the weight of the cars, is almost identical. Do two cars that weigh the same, have similar dimensions, the same size engine, and very similar power output warrant comparison? I certainly think so...

To yellows13---Boxy cars never really appealed to me, I don't think any boxy car looks good, and if a boxy car did look good, it wouldn't be the CRX or the Tercel.

Eventhe Si model of the CRX, while significantly better than the base CRX/base Tercel, only has 25 more hp than the Tercel, and gets all of its torque at 5000 RPM, not 4400 RPM like the Tercel...

I'm surprised anyone posted that CRX on this forum in the first place...not many people here like any honda civics, no matter how "fast" they are. Why not put up a nice picture of an S13 or and S14 or and S15, cars that look as good as they drive?
