From CRX to S2000
I as well started my driving habits with a CRX (well...technically an '84 S-10, but that was just a shop truck that I drove until I learned how to drive stick). Y-49 Yellow 1989 CRX Si. Still have it and drive it daily. Just bought myself a 2002 Suzuka Blue S2000. Big jump from CRX to S2000, especially the fact that it's FWD to RWD, and a tinker car to a real sports car! My CRX is still WAY fun though!

The CRX will never get boring though.
I'm so envious, a CRX AND an S!?! Just need to add a Shelby Cobra and then you'd have car nirvana in my book.
When our kids finally got their own cars and our minivan was no longer needed, I told the hubby that I'd taken one for the team long enough and was going to pick MY car and it was going to be fun. I told him I wanted my dream car; a CRX Si...and he balked. Do you really want all of the repairs, (Okay, no, not really.) Would you pick one of your clients up in it? (No, dummy, I'm a network engineer, I don't have clients and my co-workers would be jealous as hell.) A CRX, really? (Hellz yeah, it's a CRX!!!)
So I caved and said I'd get something else. He wanted a 350Z (I really didn't care for it) , I liked the MX-6, fun to drive, though I've always pictured it as a chick car...Z3's too, for that matter (he hated it.) Then, on a lark, the car salesman asked, 'have you tried the S2000?" I'd just finished test driving the 350Z and the MX-6 and figured, what the hell? By the end of the test drive, it was over...I knew no other car would do!
Two weeks later I found a beautiful '07 nfr with 71K in great shape. It's going to be my daily driver and I couldn't be more thrilled. Now the hubby is clamoring for his own S in black, LOL.

Hey CRXSWAP, I think your S2000 is missing a battery tie-down J-bolt. No worries, my S didn't have a battery tie-down AT ALL when I got it. It was also missing floor mats for that matter, but for ~$130 I ordered all the parts/hardware from Hondapartsdeals.com
Curious, what's the latest thing to go wrong on your CRX? Mine needs a new steering rack (or new rack and pinon gears), but that's been about 2 years coming.
