Overview
1991 Honda CR-X SiR appears on the official Forza Horizon 6 car list as a C Class (mid-pack improver) entry in the base roster. This page focuses on what the car actually means for everyday players: how it tends to drive in its class, where it fits inside Forza Horizon 6's Japan setting, how to think about a starting tune, and which other roster entries it naturally compares against.
If you found this page while searching for a single Honda model in Forza Horizon 6, you are in the right place. Everything below is built around the official list fields (year, class, pack, manufacturer) plus plain-language player notes. We do not invent horsepower numbers, hidden upgrade paths, or unlock guarantees that the official list has not confirmed.
Background and Forza Horizon 6 context
The 1991 CR-X SiR (EF8 chassis) was the JDM-exclusive performance variant of the second-generation CRX, powered by Honda's 158 hp 1.6-litre B16A DOHC VTEC engine. It revved to 8,000 rpm, weighed just 970 kg, and is widely considered one of the most engaging front-wheel-drive sports cars ever built. On the official Forza Horizon 6 car list this 1991 Honda entry sits in the C Class (mid-pack improver) bracket inside the base roster, which is the placement players come to this page expecting to confirm against the public source. Inside the same C Class (mid-pack improver) bracket, the closest comparison roster entries for players are 2001 Acura Integra Type R and 2002 Acura RSX Type S, which is the C Class (mid-pack improver) peer group this car is usually weighed against. The JDM tag fits the wider Japanese setting of Forza Horizon 6, where this make tends to be a focal point of cruise lobbies and theme nights.
Driving feel in Forza Horizon 6
Second-generation CR-X SiR uses the B16A 1.6 VTEC four-cylinder making 158hp at 7,600rpm — Honda's first VTEC engine sold in a road car. In C-class events on Japan's mountain routes the short wheelbase and rev-happy VTEC engine reward keeping the engine in its top third; the front-drive layout means trail-braking matters more than corner-exit throttle.
Where it shines
C class fits most early Festival progression, beginner-friendly online cruises and any event where you want to refine racing line without the speed punishing you.
Tuning starting point
Aim for a tune that prioritises mid-corner grip first, then a moderate gear-ratio change for the typical road event speed. A community tune is usually enough.
These are general starting points only, not a guaranteed competitive setup. Forza Horizon 6 community tunes that already have hundreds of downloads are usually a faster route than building from scratch, especially if you are not sure of the car's drivetrain or aero behaviour yet.
How to get 1991 Honda CR-X SiR
This car is listed without an add-on label on the official Forza Horizon 6 source, so we treat it as part of the base roster. Forza Horizon 6 launches on May 19, 2026, and before that date the public Autoshow may not surface every base-roster car yet — players asking 'how do I get this car, it is not in the Autoshow?' on Reddit or the Forza forums usually find the answer is 'wait for launch day or a post-launch update'. After launch, base-roster cars are normally available through credits in the Autoshow, Wheelspins, Festival Playlist rewards, or the in-game showcase that introduces new vehicles.
