Nicer looking? That’s debatable, Crx design is as much a classic as the original Mini, some people prefer that look. Better ride? 2000 pound chassis glides over pavement and with low miles it feels like new. Creature comforts? The Crx came with a sunroof, the Civic won’t. Power steering in a 2000 pound car is useless only more things to break, a CD/DVD/GPS can be put into any car nowdays without an issue. What other comforts can a base civic have that the Crx fails to meet or surpass?

It’s funny you say they are better in that sentence, when you just listed the qualifications for better above.

See above on the correction. I would love to see a stock 90 Camaro or a stock 90 mustang go for $14K. What’s even funnier is they cost more than the Crx new. Even a C4 Vette would find a hard time selling for that much, and it was worth double that new.

PJB, this IS the real world…:crazy

And _that_ just happened.
