theyre coming... probally about mid afternoon.. sorry im real tired and cant find the digi cam...

What scale?

its a hotwheels one and it said on the box its 1:18 but it looks kinda small for 1:18... ive never seen a crx in real life so does anyone know if crxs are usually smaller than other cars?

You've never seen a CRX? Are you blind? They're small, hideous, and everywhere.

my bad... all i see mostly here at wb is minivans civics and accords...but there is one rx7 that lives in my neighborhood whos got all kinds of turbo crap in his car

Yes, they are smaller than your average (3 dr)Hatchback.

I need to travel in your area then. There aren't that many in my area. My sister would have had one but the interior was hideous. I wish I would have taken a pic of it. Think of the pimp style interior in red...

The CRX aren't that hideous...

the 91 CRX is one of my favorite hondas, right along side of the early 90's accord

hey mike i just read in the rules that it had to be titled contest entry... is there a way to edit the title??if not then im sorry.
my bad
nevermind about the above^

I read your thread and in your first post you did classify this as your Contest thread, therefore I will make an exception and change the thread title.

:useless:

there you go

whoops... sorry about the sizes...

i hate to post bad in this forum but in all seriousness im not just tryinto be an idiot but its not clean at all, you just colored parts of it with a sharpie, it looks like you cut the engine in half and glued it to the hood and i just think that all the engine and dragster that you did to it belongs on a muscle car not a CRX but maybe itll be better when its finished tho thats just my :2cents: i wasnt tryin to be an idiot or rag on your car or anything

i hate to bring it to you but it is done... yes i did color the graphics with a sharpie... seeing as i have no blue paint... the rims are not colored with a sharpie though.. i didnt cut the engine in half i found an engine piece and drilled holes in the hood and put the little pointy things in it i was bored and i put it on there but thanks for the critiscism... i need some good suggestions for the next contest

This is a joke right?

This is a joke right?I hope sohttp://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/images/smilies/uhoh.gif

my next question is, how old are you?

Lets see the real pics, not pics off anti-rice.

...what a waste of a perfect diecast
:(
Bart

This is a joke right?
yes i am kidding.. i did this a while back not knowing it would look stupid
im not finished with my REAL contest entry..
no i lie... it is true that i did this a while back so go ahead and embarass me off the forum

well im sure everyone has done something really stupid in their days.

but this would make a great fixer-uper

Ya know, if you invest 5 bucks into some paint, and 99 cents into some masking tape, you could make that paint job muuuuuch better.

So you had me label this thread as a contest entry just to be a joke? Right.

oh you did it now :slap:

for some reason i think that it was the real car and then he realized everyone was makin fun of him then his cover up was to say that wasnt the real contest entry cuz otherwise why would he tell gtmike to label it contest entry

but on the other hand i hope he poves me wrong

the links dont work

maybe a little more effort and it would be nice...
i have the same car but i put the engine in the back.
