They talked about double takes from gas station customers when they would hear one engine start and about a second later the second engine fire up.
That was back in 1986, I remember that article as well. The CRX was pretty pimp back then, not so much now.

Yeah, the CRX still remains a hell of a twisty track dominater in (and sometimes out of) it's class. Very underpowered, but very light and very nimble. I still have that magazine sitting on my coffee table. Of course I have nearly every car and driver since the early 60's (I think).

Obviously everything out does it as far as power these days. But with very little tweaking, they are a hell of a twisty track car.
