Regular Car Reviews: 1991 Honda CRX Si

The CRX is a drool-fest for message-board hype and crowbar lust. This is a USDM CRX which means it is study-hall slow. But like a teal-colored Home-Ech room, you have to discover your own fun. Is it the CRX or the CR-X. And then there's the DCX-lifers who insist this isn't a Civic.

I'm convinced that when these were in production, they came straight outta the factory covered in salt and dirt and had dings and dents all over. I'm yet to see one CRX in even decent shape.

"May I"
"Yeah, su..."

*pedal to the floor*

crx is still my favorite rear end of all time outside Scarlett Johansson

They really are wanted! my friend had a crx and his dad had a 70s mustang.

...they stole the crx.

"And this is where I give it a May I?"   "Shu-"

i had a 91 CRX HF in college and i regret getting rid of it to this day. it was in good shape and had absolutely nothing wrong with it, but i wanted to be cool and drive something newer, so i traded it in for a 1 year old Escort GT, which was the single stupidest thing i've ever done.

The climate control buttons make the same noise as Walkman buttons. Nostalg...

I just had to look, and there's a funny thing: What Honda has the same width, weight, one foot taller, 8 inches longer, and makes 30 more hp?


A base model Honda Fit.

Again, I find myself sitting here stoned at 4 A.M, surprised to see a new RCR video at such an odd time, quickly remembering the other countless times I found myself stoned, watching a new RCR video at 4 A.M. Such is life.

If that mess was in front of me, I'd get all sweaty, drop everything, and start nervously cleaning and detailing it to see if I could carve a car out of all that filth.

Honda won't give you nice models as you dropped atomic bombs on them in ww2. lol

Being from Metro Detroit the reviews on these imports are like documentaries on strange species of wildlife I've never heard of.

Bringing old Honda engines over the 4500 rpm mark...
Such a sweet feeling, such a deep experience ;)

I had one of these back in the day. I still remember the title of the car mag article that first got me lusting after this car. They called this car the "Thin Wallet Ferrari". It was a fun car! No back seats. Roll down windows while also having a power sunroof. No cars like this anymore. Pity.

That Redsuns plate tho.... only some will understand

I love how the passenger's hands sync up with the narration at 4:29

I own a white 1988 CRX HF, 1800 pounds, less safety, and a 1.6 Turbocharged VTEC swap. It is the most fun car I have ever driven and it's awesome to see you review one! Keep up the awesome reviews!

5:12 That little ram-air vent is the feature I miss most from my '89 Civic sedan (my first car... hello ladies): Driving in the rain you could have the demister blowing hot air up the windscreen and still have a comfortable, cool breeze on your face.

"USDM safety scissor engine" lol

The best part of the CRX was the driver oriented gauge cluster. Like a cockpit!
