I'd rather see the C-rex come back........actually, Honda is going to release another CRX in a couple years, no word yet on whether North America will get it. If they make an Si version(K20?) and release it here, it will be mine......

Definately the CRX. It wasn't as "cute" as the del Sol and made for a better tuner!

The CRX: They look much sicker with a kit, and I'd take one over the Si hatch anyday.

Useless fact:

Did you know that the Del Sol was called the CRX in Japan? I don't remember where I heard that, but yeah...there ya' go .

Oh yeah, the answer to the question is BOTH PLEASE !

I would like to see the CRX comeback.
I would also love to see the Del-Sol, I am trying to get my hands on either one as a project car for my girl.

theguysmiley: yup... i've seen a bunch of CRX sites call the del sol the "3rd generation" CRX.

as far as i'm concerned, the CRX IS back. it's called the civic Si in the 'states. small hatchback with decent power and lots of potential? sounds like the CRX to me... with room for 5 this time.

i never was a big fan of the del sol though... i thought it was kinda ugly and just TOO small. i wish they'd bring back the prelude... i LOVED that car, especially the last generation... those are beautiful cars [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/IMG]

i'd also like to see acura bring back NAMES for their cars... i know they still have them elsewhere in the world, but in the US, these letter/number combinations like "RSX" or "3.2TL" are really stupid... considering acura had some of the best car names in the business ("legend", "integra", etc... IMO)

Hell, it wouldn't be too hard to bring back the CRX. Take an Insight, lose the batteries and drop a D series engine in there. I'd take one.

Yup, the DelSol was the 3rd generation CRX, it was marketed as a CRX everywhere but the North American market, It seems though that the DelSol is a girls car here now, why I dont really know. The thing is the DelSol, if tuned correctly is a fast *** car. There are a few knocks on it, 1, its heavy as **** for a car of its size, do some weight reduction and your in business, and the targa had a tendency to leak. the pluses, B16A, I even knew a couple people who threw a b18C in it and screamed! , with the right wheels and some decent springs, this sucker can pull a full G cornering. Its a 2 seater, its chassis was based of the 92 hatchback, same as the previous crx's.
Bring the CRX back reguardless, the Si(R) hatch is a first step, but either give us the type R of it or give us a CRX

If you think about it the CRX did kinda come back. It is now a hybrid and it has tire skirts but none the less it is a CRX. There were rumors of the CRx coming bcak for years now and all those rumors stopped when the Insight arrived here. My guess is they will not come back BUT you never know the Passport came back badged as the Pilot. As for the lude the RSX was designed to replace that and the Integra.
