Saw this on the CRX forum - thought Porsche folks would appreciate

In preparation for my eventual top end rebuild, I decided to cheat on my 911 with a cheap, and cheap to modify/build 1991 Honda CRX. A year on their forums and boards, as well as several years on the 4Runner boards (for my daily), has really made me appreciate the knowledge base here, but also, it's funny to see how different and similar the gear-head cultures are.

This morning this popped up on one of the Facebook groups, and I thought some of you all might appreciate. Fuchs and everything. Introducing, the Honda PRX:

That kind of works. In an alternate universe sort of way.

That's cute. Is that a Fujimi kit hack? They made both cars in 1/24.

Looks good to me, in a cross bred sort of way.

Nicely done.

The CRX platform has a lot of potential for a fun car.
They took over from bugs in the islands IN the early 90s as the young car guys go to model.

Cheers Richard

That is an injustice to both cars!

Here's mine many years ago. Still have it but it doesn't get out much.

I believe we all make mistakes but I will not validate your poor choices and/or perversions and subsidize the results your actions.

I like it better than that mid engine 912, even if it is just a model kit.
