Is Honda Preparing to Bring Back the Civic-Based CRX?

Honda doesn't make many mistakes, but when it killed its two-seat CRX after model year 1991 for the unloved 1993 del Sol, a host of loyal sports coupe fans had few alternative choices. Some bought into the heavier, less agile del Sol due to its removable roof panel, but there's little doubt Honda lost others to alternative Japanese brands such as Mazda, which had just started selling its 130-horsepower V6-equipped MX-3 Precedia. Still, the majority of CRX-patriots purchased Civic hatchback models and fixed them up to satisfy their need for something sporty.
