Out of all the cars in the world you could have had for less then 3,000 bucks, why a CRX?

Me personally? Im sick of driving gas guzzling cars(my Z) or cars with no aftermarket....(had a 2000 Celica GT-S*sold*) and needed somthing cheap, quick and somthing that gets 30+mpg...

CRX with a b16 is where its at(total spent so far with car = $3900 give or take) even though I am ganna miss the damn near 50mpg of the HF's wapping 70hp...but the b16 should still get close to 35mpg driving 30miles all freeway 1 way to work each day...
