Honda CRX News **Confirmed for 2007 (page 3)**
I am not sure how reliable this is but...here it is. If it's true, I agree that Honda needs the CRX back in business. We are back at the "exciting vehicles" era and the CRX was one of the most successful offerings from Honda. Especially in Europe where small cars with small engines rule.

I think the Si would sell much better if you had a coupe option. I'd drive a Civic Si Coupe (or this "new" CRX) but I wouldn't be cought dead in that hatch. Don't get me wrong, I like hatchbacks just fine. But the Civic hatch is just fugly.
Honda must realize that when you're designing a family sedan, conservative is good because it's has mass market appeal for a mass market car. But when you're designing something sporty, you need to be much more aggressive. You're not going to appeal to as wide of an audience but the audience has changed anyway.

I also think the new Si looks like a van. The old CRX was incredible to me. Light and nice styling. BTW, cheap cars are not cash cows, expensive cars are. The profit margins are much bigger on expensive cars.

I join the group in saying the new Si looks like a van too. I actually mistook one a minivan looking outside at the parking lot from my office window today

I doubt that Honda will put a nice engine in it if it actually did come out. The Si is a perfect example of them underpowering what should have been a fast car. The pic looks pretty cool tho!

Return of the Honda CRX !!
I had an '86 CRX SI and to to date I had more fun in that car than ANY other car. What is funny is I like the TSX cause it has that same handling spirit (for a 4-door 
).

, the old models see enough of that already. The new model would be just as popular, but also something ricers probably can get a hold of and rice out.
Honda needs to keep up with the latest trends and a new CRX will help with that.
