Most of the color info was found at the english Wikipedia pages and on Daz's Import Archive website.
Downloadable scans of dealer brochures of the various CR-X versions can be found at the AutoCatalogArchive.com website (provided you can prove that you are human).
The lists are ordered by type and by model year:
