Default what was last year for CRX?

what was the last year for the CRX? Because I didn't think they made them in '94 but there is a classified ad for a '94 CRX near my house. Is this a misprint or did they make them then? Because I couldn't find any info on carpoint.com for the CRX model after '92. Thanks.

Last year was 1991.

In Europe and Japan the Del Sol was called a CRX.

Well, last year in the US was 91, but they did produce them upto 92, and I think SOME in 93 even...

As ED9 said, some do call the Del Slo, I mean Del Sol a CRX... As thats what its called elsewhere... My own opinion is it shouldn't be called a CRX at all, only thing they have in common is they are 2 seaters... And the best thing about the CRX is its lighweight, which isnt true for the Sol... They are sweet rides tho, and with the right engine and boost, they can be quite fast...

but wait a Del Sol is considered a CRX just like a CRX is a Honda Civic CRX, which is the correct name and a Del Sol is a Honda CRX Del Sol which is its proper name. So technically 97 is the last year.

In 1992, Honda decided to continue production of the CRX for their home market, and for much of Europe.
In North America, we missed out. Honda even introduced the VTEC engine in 1992.
That's right. In Europe, you could buy a 1992 Honda CRX VTEC.

They were also produced in 1983 as that site states, but we didnt get them here until 84...

B16A Honda Civic SiR (JDM-Hatch) 1989-1992
And one more, on Honda Tech no less, if there were no such thing, you know they woulda flamed him...

I assure you, there was a 2nd gen CRX produced in 1992 in Europe and in Japan...
There used to be a site with a bunch of pictures with information on them... But I cant find it now...

Heres some pics on cardomain:

If you notice, none of them are in the U.S...

Technically your right, but Im talking about the 2nd generation of CRX... The Del Sol is the 3rd generation...
