The Appeal
Speculated to designate the "Civic Renaissance Experimental," the CR-X nameplate became legendary for not only refining but perfecting the formula of a lightweight, front-wheel-drive sports car. Affordable yet undeniably packed with character, these small yet oh-so-mighty motors were a key component in the Japanese motoring invasion and are still utterly beloved as a modern classic.
This incredibly handsome example, carrying the much-adored VTEC powerplant, has reportedly covered a mere 11,139 miles, a rare achievement for a driver-focused car that traditionally gobbles up the miles. It's been meticulously maintained, with plenty of paperwork accompanying it in a large folder. It's the perfect opportunity to get behind the wheel if you're after a true Japanese legend.
