true story.

I had a 1990 CRX SI and it was incredibly light to steer, even at slow speeds or when parking it was very easy.

FWIW, I wrecked that car into a tree on icy roads. It needed a fender, door, windshield, radiator and maybe a hood. It held up pretty well considering it hit a tree at 40mph. I replaced the windshield and radiator and drove it for the rest of winter before selling it for 1000 dollars 7 or 8 years ago, lightly rusted (not bad though).
