The Dual-Engine Dream: Reimagining the Honda CR-X

The Honda CR-X, known for its lightweight and efficient design, was transformed into a twin-engine powerhouse by Car and Driver in the 1980s. Dubbed the CR-X Squared, this modified version featured two 1.8-liter engines from the Honda Accord, producing a combined 220 horsepower. Despite its increased weight, the car achieved a 0-60 mph time of 6.2 seconds. Recently, car collector Randy Carlson restored this unique vehicle, showcasing it on Jay Leno's Garage.

Ferrari collector David Lee showcases the 2023 Ferrari 296 GTB on "Jay Leno's Garage." The 296 GTB is Ferrari's entry-level mid-engine car, featuring a twin-turbocharged 3.0-liter V-6 engine and an electric motor, producing 818 hp. The car offers impressive performance with a 0-62 mph acceleration in 2.9 seconds and a top speed of over 205 mph.
