Beemax 1:24

In September 1987, a redesigned Civic was introduced with increased dimensions and a lower hood
line. A wide range of models and trim levels were offered for various
markets around the world. The most notable of which was the Japanese
market SiR (featuring the B16A 1.6-liter DOHC VTEC 4-cylinder engine). All U.S. models featured electronic fuel injection,
but carbureted models were still available elsewhere. The
fourth-generation saw the introduction of a fully independent rear
suspension across the entire model range. In addition, the Honda CRX continued to be part of the Civic family
which included the base model, HF and Si model in the U.S.A / four door
version called the Ballade was built, under agreement, by Mercedes-Benz
South Africa / models were 1500 16V, 1600i 16V and 1600i 16V DOHC. The
first 800 cars produced at the then brand new Honda plant in Alliston,
Ontario, Canada were SE model cars. These Special Edition models
included all white side molding that matched the white body and color
matched dual mirrors. In the body molding was a wrap around blue stripe.
Each car had interior upgrades as well as a chrome-tipped exhaust. 

 Despite its non-sporting image, the Volvo 240 was a successful
competitor in touring car racing in the 1980s. In 1983 Volvo produced
505 evolution version of the 240 Turbo with a larger turbocharger and
other performance modifications. All of these special cars were exported
to the United States with the special equipment kit in the trunk of
each car. 270 of these cars were retrofitted with the special equipment
at Long Beach and further 240s were simultaneously fitted with the same
kit on the East Coast at the Volvo Penta facility at Chesapeake Bay. All
500, except for one car which was returned to Sweden, were subsequently
stripped of their GpA homologation equipment and sold as standard road
cars. This was allowed under the Group A regulations, the cars only
having to have been made and not necessarily sold. Nevertheless, it did
lead to protests from other teams, until Volvo was able to produce proof
that the 500 cars had indeed been manufactured
