Test Drive: Honda CR-Z

[Bugatti]

Looks awfully a lot like the Mazda Rx-8 from the front (my opinion)

the front is nice !

nice review! so how exactly was the power from the car? minimal or competitive.. its a honda after all lol

The power was just adequate.

[kahmed79]

Nice review, but the car fails to meet the standards set by its predecessor IMO.

Of course, the CR-Z can never match the purity of the original CRX. Having said that, i've never driven a CRX.

Now let me tell you why did you like the dash of CR-Z:

Peek-a-boo-I-see-you.

Ahh...I knew there was a good reason why I liked the interior :).

Salam Kamran,
You wanna know whats funny, I saw you at the dealership when I passed by it lol
You were outside talking to the sales guy and I assume, he had just pulled it out for you for the test drive. Funny thing is, I saw that black one standing while I was passing by, and all of a sudden see you there, i just found that hilarious. Didn't get a chance to call you and ask how it was but we'll talk soon inshallah

As for the design, I was really impressed with the lines of the car. Pictures don't do the car justice. In person, it looks more sharp and i've always loves angular designs like that of the RSX, first gen TSX and such. I might just go in one of these days since I'm wayyyyy overdue for a test drive in anything lol

That's funny...should've honked your horn.

Lovely car, I wish Honda Atlas would introduce it here.

You're kidding right ? Let Honda Altas introduce airbag's in the local City first.

One damn good reason to buy!

[badar7]

may b ...back cam..thats the only option ,i think...

its a stupid but definately a HOT design

[hash4u]

i like the front.
i hope the rear looks better in real though

[nickatnite]

What a far cry from the concept i saw at the New Delhi Auto Expo!:o You sure this isn't a Hyundai?. What happened?. I still remember my '92 CRX with wistful joy. This CRZ looks like a bloated and underpowered jelly bean.

[Spano]

nice hatch

[DCcoolguy]

front reminds me of rx8

It looks a lot better in real life. I saw one the other day in "bronzemist" the other day parked right near my place. It looked pretty muscular and well-rounded. It's not Scirroco-like in it's design sharpness, but it's a pretty car in its own right. Only if it had a slightly more powerful engine / electric motor, it would've been perfect. Then again, Honda is probably the only remaining Japanese manufacturer who's actively trying to keep its cars interesting to drive, so one has to give credit where credit is due.
