For the regular-guy car owner, gettting your car featured in a gloss magazine is the highest honor you can achieve.
A race car can win a race.
A new car can win some sort of Car of The Year (COTY) from a magazine, but those are usually motivated by purchasing ad space.
A really rich guy can pay for a restoration to win Pebble Beach or Amelia Island.
For the 9 to 5 kind of guy, we can only hope to one day to get the attention of a Big Time magazine. And if you are so lucky to get your car in a magazine, you have to scan a photo from that shoot and use it as your signature

several years ago I made this website using a downloaded version of Dream weaver.
My CRX Site
Motor Trend found the site and contacted me about five months ago. weird thing was it was the black car he was interested in just happened to be I was buying a new car
which gave me a finish date and a level to build at. Have to admit I was scrambling to get the car ready last weekend.
and there was a few things I would have like to have had for the car to make it better.
I was going for a period correct clean car with period correct performance bits. ie Mugen
Sorry Retro.
maybe next time.......

So your saying a OBD-2 B20Z would have been thrown right off the "period correct" concept/planning table.
And congrates. Maybe I should make a site for mine when I'm done and make it google searchable..

Wow! A flash back of about 10 years! That was one of the first sites I found about the CRX.

Yes the black car which I bought almost 10 years ago to the day was used sort of as a parts car.
basically everything that wasn't being used on the red car was put on the black car and all the good
bits from the black car went onto the red car.
in the end I had two complete running cars.
The Black car then was sold to a good friend in Halifax.
