I dont get it

I can understand you doubting 175mph but 135mph is easy money.

Dont be closed minded just cause its not a mustang.

A stock crx si will go 130mph, dont talk Sh*t if you have never drove one,

An "Escort" is a POS economy car and in my opinion a CRX is a well built well engineered car that has a great tranny in the 5 speed form. 130mph is no prob for a stock si.

Optimistic my @ss the speedo is barried like no other half way through 5th gear and if anything the 135mph is a low number.

What the hell do you mean the aero dynamics wont allow 175mph There are CRX dragsters that go damn near 200 mph and run mid 7's

I dont even like my CRX but I had to come to its defense cause yall are way low on your top speed assessment of a stock CRX.
