This 1984 Honda CRX has been restored and modified to be a good-looking, apparently well-built SCCA GT4 Mugen racer replica. The original was built by in Gardena, California as a collaboration between the Special Projects Division of Honda North America and Mugen, winning several national championships between 1985 and ’89. Somewhat similarly, this one was built by Honda of Switzerland with cooperation from Mugen of Europe and Japan, albeit more recently, and is said to be as accurate as possible in all details. Find it here on Les Anciennes in Annemasse, Switzerland for 25k euros (~$28,300 USD today). Special thanks to BaT reader Andrew B. for this submission.

Wearing an accurately replicated livery on top of a correct-looking bodykit, the car wears excellent Mugen CF-48 wheels with disc-style brake cooling ducts/center caps removed. Described as completely restored using authentic Honda and Mugen parts, period photos were used to replicate body details, paint and livery graphics on top of sand-blasted panels.

Inside, the ad lists an accurately replicated aluminum dash with correct Stewart-Warner guages, Mugen steering wheel, Kevlar Sparco seat and window net, a half cage and Sabelt harnesses. The car doesn’t sound to have been raced following completion, and the exclusion of a full roll structure further suggests it’s more of a hardcore street-biased replica than an out-and-out racer.

Per the original, this car’s long-stroke, SOHC, Mugen-modified 1.6 liter four is correct, and provided internals and other details are as closely replicated as claimed, it should be good for about 165 HP at close to 8,000 RPM. According to the ad, it’s been renovated with unspecified cylinder head work, and runs twin 45 DCOE Webers and a five gallon fuel cell in the trunk. Gearbox, suspension and brake details are omitted unfortunately.

The market for something like this seems as if it’d be pretty limited in Europe, and we suspect it may end up being imported to the US, further prepped for track and put to work terrorizing larger, more powerful cars.
