HISTORY The Honda CR-X (designated in some markets as the Honda CRX), originally launched in Japan as the Honda Ballade Sports CR-X, is a front-wheel-drive compact sports car produced by Honda from 1983 to 1991 with nearly 400, 000 units produced during this period. The first generation CRX was marketed in some regions outside Japan as the Honda Civic CRX. Although there are many purported definitions for the acronym CR-X, the most widely accepted is 'Civic Renaissance Experimental'. In the United States, the CRX was marketed as an economy sports Kammback with room for two passengers, while cars for the Japanese and European markets featured a 2+2 seating arrangement. Redesigned for the 1988 model year and produced until 1991, the CRX was popular for its performance, agile handling and good fuel economy, all while hitting the 100 hp per cubic litre barrier. The CR-X was replaced by Honda's CR-X del Sol, marketed as the CR-X in some markets.
OUR CAR Delivered new in 1991 in Athens, Greece, with the characteristic Honda Red colour scheme on a black leather interior. Impeccably maintained by its sole owner with frequent maintenance intervals, during the recent annual service the car had its tappet cover repainted and refitted with new seals and gaskets. This beautiful second-generation CRX also benefited from the dry and hot climate of Greece, with no rust or corrosion, no cracks in the centre console, dashboard or plastic trim.
In 2023, the bodywork was repainted in its original colour, the original interior, glove box and original wheels complete the car's condition. With 160, 000 km under its belt, our Crx is an extremely rare find in its current condition, combining the high-revving V-Tec engine with a weight under 900 kg it is the perfect combination for driving pleasure.
