You know you're a CRX owner when...

  • Nobody really knows what kind of car it is
  • You know every other car model with similar weight
  • You truly appreciate the Weight/HP ratio
  • You laugh at your buddies when they say that S2000 was the best honda ever made
  • You turn your head around completely whenever another CRX passes you even if its a rusted out POS
  • You wave to other CRX owners/drivers on the road
  • You make lists of what to do to your car next
  • Most of your "To Do" list consists of things to do to the CRX
  • You have more money into the CRX that what you bought it for
  • You have more money into the CRX then what it cost brand new 15 years ago (Jadkar )

Add your own stuff

...everyday you consider selling it, but never do.

Owning a CRX is truely a love-hate relationship.

You know you own a crx when:
You can park two cars in one parking spot.
Your spare tire well doubles as a swimming pool every time it rains.
The miles on your odometer and the miles on your engine have nothing to do with each other.
Your car has had more paint jobs than Michael Jackson.

You know your a CRX owner when.......
  • Everything you want to do to your engine has to be followed up with the, "Do I have enough room under the hood?" question.
  • Your climate control is cracked near the temp knob.
  • You load every option / engine imaginable into your car and it still only weighs 2300lbs.
  • Every other part you try to order from Honda is discontinued.
  • You get zero traction off the line.
  • Threshold trail braking requires Gods approval or else you will spin out.
  • your doors weigh 60% of the entire weight of the car. (90-91 and some 89s)
  • People look at you with a confused open mouth stare when they here how much money you dropped on it.

Love the bit about the the spare tire doubling as a pool and the heating control cracked. Mine was fine last year and I was like "why does everybody complain about it" then finally 16 years later (6 months ago) it cracked too, i was like,

- When you know exactly how many CRX's are withing the surrounding area, and all their owners by name.
- When you visit/browse Ebay/ and other car selling websites looking for CRX's even though you have one, and are not planing to buy another one.
- When you laugh when people describe a 2600 pound car as a "light" car.
- When your friends pull a prank of you on april fools by picking up the car and moving it around a corner, and making you think the car was stolen (it was like 10 of them but still)
- When nobody else understands what attracts you to a the car.
- When you consider the EF hatches a redheaded stepchild of the CRX.
- When you do U turns on manhole covers (Who remembers this one? )
- When your rear end comes out and you do nothing to stop it, because you know that once it goes, its gone, and you just pray for it to comeback.
- When you consider modern features like power windows and power door locks unecessary heavy weight adding features.
- When you know that something is wrong if your car isnt making any noices.
- When you know each noise your car makes and where its coming from.
- When a weight of a deck (CD unit) is one of the things you consider when purchasing one.

All i got for now, I know there are some things im not hitting at but its 3 am right now so its all good.

You know you're a CRX owner.....

When your seats are worth more than the whole car itself - Si only.

When you do everything thing you can to get in and out of the driver's seat as carefully as possible so not to do any more damage to the bolster.

when you spend thousands of the company's money researching CRX information when you're supposed to be 'working'

Oh wait, I didn't say that!
