a crx is a good platform, and the engines are pretty much the same as any other honda, reliable, and peppy, but not fast in stock form. just make sure that the car is in good running order, and it should last for years to come if taken care of.

The JDM CRX's had a rear seat and some people in the US do the conversion. However, most say that you couldn't fit a 5 year old back there anyways, they just take away cargo room and adds weight.

I'm picking up a 91' Tahitian Green Si soon =p
