NO. KEEP your CRX. The only "bad thing" about is the hood is primer. EF<CRX crx is a little bit lighter, but remember every pound counts! Clean CRX's are pretty rare. You see billion's of EF's on the road. Not many CRX's!!!! I'd say just keep it and save up for a better swap then the ZC. Just my advice, I had a CRX si three CRX's ago and regreted selling well trading it for a 700 dollar EF Hatch, when I had 3000 into the Si. With maintance parts and everything. It was practically BRAND new Mechanically!!!

You do make a valid point, I do love my crx, its one of the nicest ive seen, I even got some compliments at the starbucks/mcdonalds show......and my lil rex was parked next to sweet supra and a bunch of f-body camaros and even my boys sweet ass vette. Not that I could keep up w/ them, but you know, I didnt get as much looks as my boys turbo gsr, but I didnt hear anyone raggin on my shit either...

yea you need to just keep it, cuz if you sell it and try to get a shell for 1k and put a motor in it for 1800, chances are that your car will not be as clean as your crx, meaning that your shell that you will buy will prolly be primered!

I'd rather have fading paint than primer.
