Introduction to the CR-X scale model

The Honda CR-X became known for pairing compact form with lively performance from its 1983 debut. Its lightweight, front-wheel-drive architecture delivered agile handling and good economy. Tamiya's 1/24 scale kit presents the Mugen-tuned CR-X in detail suited to serious model builders and collectors.

Context and importance in car culture

In the 1980s the CR-X carved out a niche as a sporty, economical small car. The Si variant with its SOHC engine drew attention from drivers keen on spirited motoring. This kit captures the design language and race-inspired aspects that gave the CR-X its character.

Assembly rewards and presentation tips

Model enthusiasts will find the kit's parts and decals allow for a faithful recreation of the Mugen CR-X Pro. With careful painting and neat assembly the finished model displays well on a shelf or in a cabinet among other 1/24 scale vehicles.

The kit offers fine detail that experienced builders will appreciate. Intermediate modellers with steady tools and some practice can also complete the project successfully.
Clean moulding lines off with fine sandpaper and wash parts to remove dust or oils. A light primer helps paint adhere and shows any imperfections before final coats.
After decal application use a clear varnish or matt/gloss coat to protect and unify the finish. Sealing also helps guard the decals during handling and display.
