As long as I don't have anymore car problems, it's gonna be at Sarge's. (Fingers crossed X)

Well, it's been a long time. I wanted to pass this CRX down to my son, as he loves it sooooo much. He has the Tomica little Ballade CR-X he drives around on his little city rug playset. I have neglected this poor little CRX. Sad. I love it. He loves it. Since my daughter was born in 2004 the CRX has been gradually getting less usage, and in 2007 when my son was born the Honda Odyssey gets most of the duty. I drove it once last year, and since we live in a townhome (we've been trying to get out of), and have to keep it tagged and insured whether we drive it or not. The stress of daily family life has ground me down. My wife and I are possibly getting a divorce, so I will be selling the little CRX here maybe August or September in order to pay legal fees and reduce outgoing money. I don't know if I will sell everything in one big blast or separating the collectible stuff. Anyways, I know the last few years I have been mainly a lurker since family life has consumed all my time. I wanted to say goodbye to all of you I met at the various CRX meets. Niagara, the Sgt Pepper meets, etc. I have great memories that I will fondly recall for a lifetime. When I get organized I will list up stuff I will be selling. Sad to have to do this but I will probably lose the car anyways. I don't plan to part out the car, but the collection. So, after a long, long hiatus, this thread now comes to a disappointing end.

Very sorry to hear that! I wish you all the best in the next chapter of your life. Who knows, CRXs will still be around in the next 5 years... you can pick back up where you left off then.

Road & Track magazine: "When they get around to listing the top good-time inventions of the late 20th century, we're willing to bet that right up there with the hang gliders, ultra lights, sailboards and jet skis you'll find the Honda Civic CRX. And we're willing to bet that the CRX won't be at the bottom of the short list--particularly if the CRX in question is an Si."
Hoping to get back into the 1G game ASAP!

I'm so glad to read that you still have the CRX in the family. Yours was always one I enjoyed seeing photos of back in the day. Such a good color combo. I totally understand what you mean about the safety, or lack thereof, with the CRX. It's a small miracle I survived my highschool years, seeing as a 1G was my first car.
It's been fun seeing where folks build's have ended up.
