I love the 1980s aesthetics of this photo: the proud owner of a Mugen CRX Pro wearing knock-off Converse Allstars and aviator model glasses. He would be totally fashionable today. But I digress…
If you look closely enough, you can see this Mugen CR-X Pro isn’t just aesthetics. A roll cage is barely visible through the rear quarter window. Also, a bucket seat is installed for the driver and the car has twin exhaust pipes. Finally, it sits on a set of Heroes Racing iSpeed wheels. These wheels are designed to pull air into the wheel to cool the brakes. This CRX seriously means business!
When I read the short bio of the car by the owner of Minkara, I can conclude he did mean business. He bought this car when he was still a student and tricked his parents into lending him money for a Honda CRX with a body kit on it. Little did they know it was actually a hard-tuned Mugen CRX Pro! The owner also describes he did many modifications over the years including the roll cage and bucket seats.
