Default Convertable CRX

I was coming home today from work and i saw this convertable CRX. I never know that honda made these. Was this a rare option or just a custom job?? Here are some pics.

Honda never made CRX 'verts. The only thing close was a dealer out in California that contracted a company to convert a few first gen cars and sold them from their showroom, I don't recall how many though.

Most are complete hackjob conversions.

It looks like a custom job.
They never made them, why would you want to compromise the rigidity or a nice handling sporty car for something dumb like a convertable.

All year CRX's never had a convertible. Personally i think it makes the CRX look like a damn GEO when it's gone thru that nasty conversion. i've also seen it done on the 2nd gen rex and i think it's horrible not to mention asking yourself the main question of "y?" but one thing i have seen that doesn't look too bad is a sports top on a crx like how the 93-97 Supras were available with.

I think they look more like a Cabriolet.

I want a cabriolet, they're fun little cars even though they look like a cheerleader's car.

here's one, obviously jacked from cardomain.
