I wonder how stiff the Insight's frame is? If it's a pretty good platform, the Insight would actually be a great starting spot for the CRX - it only weighs 1850 lbs. Swapping the 1.0L gas/electric hybrid power for a B16 or B18 engine could yield a pretty sweet ride!

Nice Photoshop job, too.

You do understand that if they did that it would make the car entirely front heavy and the handling would suck.

I want one! Really, really, really bad! I had a 90 CRX Si. It was the most fun car I ever had besides my S. I would buy that car instantly if they built it!

......given gracious amounts of money, time, and an artistic body shop worker, could this be done? Also with say....a b18c5 engine?

Someone should seriously send that to Honda. I would buy one for a daily driver without a second thought. Looks a hell of a lot better than the new mini minivan SI they came out with. Maybe it's time to get an insight, and take it to a body shop for some surgery, then take it to a performance shop and get that stupid little motor yanked out of it and put in a real powerplant... The F20C!

CRX-Si
I still have my '90, but it needs to go to a new home in the spring.
If Honda ever decides to redo the CRX I suspect it would sell like crazy!


Nice PhotoShop work by the way!
