With its revvy little powertrains, low weight and surprisingly spacious layout, the CRX is something of a hidden gem in Honda’s modern history. This handsome little car provides superb handling and sparkling performance, all wrapped up in a charming and well-proportioned coupé shape.
This particular example is a British car that benefits from the DOHC, 16-valve ‘D16A9’ engine. Having been treated to a comprehensive respray in its factory shade of Polar White just last year, it presents in excellent overall condition, with no modifications – which is highly unusual for these cars.
Handsome Polar White paintwork, which benefited from a ‘windows out’ respray in 2021
During the respray, the rear wings were also replaced and a new fibreglass/composite sunroof panel was sourced from Japan and fitted
Overall, the paint shows in very fine order, with no major marks or blemishes we could discern
The bodywork all looks nice and straight, with no corrosion or damage we could see, and even, consistent panel gaps
All of the glass and other external trim elements appear to be in excellent condition, with only very minor blemishes present
The factory 14-inch alloy wheels were refurbished in August 2021 and present very well, with a smart coat of silver paint and no kerb damage we could identify – they're shod with tyres that appear to have good tread levels
The underside looks clean and neat, with no obvious damage or corrosion to the sills, floor or fuel tank
We noted a little surface corrosion to some of the suspension components, as you may expect, but this looks to be very minor
This delightful little sports coupé is presented in very good order, with a recent respray and a superb history file detailing years of fastidious care. We think it’s an absolute cracker, and we’re sure its next owner will be over the moon with their purchase.
