Shopping for a rex.
 
Im looking to ditch my lude and pick up a crx... anything I should look for?
I want to test drive on first im a pretty big dude and barely fit in my lude. How far back do the seats on the rex slide?

Im 6'2 with long arms. I have never found a car with everything so close to me. --I do have a short shifter, which helped a little. I like it. I move the seat up a little, and my knees aren't in the dash. Im pretty cummfy in the car. Ive never drivin the car longer than 2/1/2 hrs at one time....so that might be a problem.

I'm 6'0" and fit comfortably in my car. CRX's are great, buy one or two ;)

Well since you're in Canada the bigest thing to watch for is rust.

Usually first to develop rust is behind the rear wheel wells, and a bit inside the taillights.

Other then that the usually car stuff applies, no huge issues that develop on a CRX.

Also the 88's were designed with a bit more aggresive rear suspension angles (different lower arms) and are a bit more desirable in Autocross and such, 90-91 Si's had 4 wheel disk brakes. Thats about it
