My personal Opinion on the interior is that it sucks. It kind of reminds me of the GM interior.
the body also looks like the SI cut in half.[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-puke.gif[/IMG]

I just need more pictures of the car to make up my mind.

Wow... that's pretty good looking. I bet it won't really come with Advan Kreuzers, but if that's what it looks like, they'll sell. It's kinda RSX meets Insight. Any idea what's under the hood?

Good design, really captured the essence of the CRX body stlye. Smooth lines, creative front end, definetely Honda original. My only beef is that they are using a digital Speedometer read-out. That is ugly IMO. I like watching my MPH needle go up as I drive and I don't really trust a computer to tell me how fast I am going. The only good thing about digital read-outs is that if you get pulled over you exactly the MPH over the speed limit you were going.

But overall I hope it goes into production because I will trade the Civic in for it, that is if it comes with a better powered engine like maybe a 160 hp or a 200 hp engine, but I think that is asking to much. I think, if it is released, they will throw the 1.7L SOHC EX engine in it and that will be the highest powered it will go. Remember Honda is going toward the All Show No Go.

That is not a CRX, that's a Honda Insight with the rear wheel cover thing off.

Interior pic from Honda's website:



Its exactly the same.

The side of the front headlight is chopped diagonally, hence you can see the amber reflector's cut off abruptly at its sides.



Either they're making the CRX almost identical to the Insight or that thing's a fake.

OF COURSE YOU KNOW HONDA WON'T COME OUT WITH IT LIKE THAT. It'll be like the Civic SI(R). No side skirts or front lips, ABS OPTIONAL, and small 14" steelies. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-nono.gif[/IMG]

Other than that yes, the new CRX done up like THAT will look nice.

Looks great but too bad its fake
New Crx Photoshop
Others from same company

I would take it if they made them look like that (need more pics though). Its amazing on what you can do by removing the wheel covers.

Folks, let's not forgot what the original CRX was built for: Super economy. It would be nice to have a CRX though but it definately WONT be like that. Looks nice, but with too much fancy equipment for CRX. OH yeah, isnt the speedo (digital) and tach a little too small? Maybe I'm just used to the Civics over-sized ones. haha

That's awesome!! They should of never gotten rid of the old CRX, it was when they brought the delsol out to replace the crx is when the whole crx idea crashed. My first car was a crx and I would definently buy this car!!!

It would make sense to me trhat it looks a lot liek an insight, Imean why make all new chasis and body panels when we can use same chasis and aleter the panels a bit....look at the 7th gen vs. RSX greanted they look hella different from one another but they use some of the same parts.

Honda is coming out with the CRX, or at least plans to because the other daya guy at work had a paper on his desk regardign the rerelease of them and I was excited as hell, I've wanted one so bad for the longest time and it is just in time to trade in my 01 civic too....decisions decisionss....
