CRX best handling honda??

ok first off i have the 2000 honda civic si model ..... i was to considering a crx as a beater for now to drive around... now if i get this car and you do suspension mods and stuff can i actually get it to handle better than my si? (no offence to the crx owners but i just think my Si looks helluva lot better than the crx..) I am assuming it probably would but is it that much better in handling??

Best handling Honda? ITR/S2000/NSX I'd guess

Cant say I'm a fan of the new Civic - CRX has always been the prettiest Honda in my books

a 88-91 Si in good shape ie nice bushing and good stock suspension would still wipe the floor in handling on a 2000Si(stock) and modded CRX would be better yet

my cousin had a 99 si with lowering springs and ITR rear sway, strut tower bars, etc. got in my 90 Si hatch drove it around, and was like "thats not fair", because even with all his susp mods my car handled better, and mine is still stock with crappy bushings. and the old Si s come with better seats

Can't say i'm a fan of the new Civic shape...especially when the CRX is a classic wedge that lends itself so well to bodykits....

not quite the best honda handler ever, cough s2000 cough, anyway, for the question, it'd be a much better handler than ur si, it'd be a good buy.

The CRX all the way!

Think about it, it weighs less, has a lower CG, and is well, not a pile of crap designed to stop silly Americans whigning because they want a DOHC VTEC Civic as well!!!!!!!
