[] Interesting news for people waiting for a CRX: I just talked to my dealer (Beaverton Honda in Beaverton, Oregon; incidently the number 6(?) volume dealer of Honda auto's in the world) and they had some very good news... Honda has apperently gotten tired of all the flack that dealers have been giving it about wanting more CRX's, so is/has shipped MANY CRX's (a whole shipload just came into Portland,Ore. for distribution to the pacific northwest). I was told that in several months the wait should be cut to almost nothing... Red 1500's and White 1300's are suppose to be the hardest to get ahold of, also automatics are much easier to find then the 5sp's (so I was told by my dealer and Honda America in Ohio). By the way, I ordered mine (1300 CRX Blue 5sp.) on March 13th, am number 6 in the waiting list, and expect to take delivery by May 30th. Sence I ordered it the price quoted by Beaverton Honda has DROPPED by $40!!! From $6685 to $6645 (no sales tax either)!!! (By the way, when you order one from them say I sent you...) Can't wait for my new car, Ritchey Ruff ...ihnp4!iham1!ruffwork (Maybe Honda reads the net after all...) []
