What's wrong with actually having torque?
and turbo diesels are BEASTS.

I like the concaves in the wheels, reminds me of the 370z's wheels kind of haha.

Guess what? The CR-Z has been refined to its almost-final production form and is slated for a February 2010 release in Japan.

Honda CR-Z revealed - Autocar.co.uk


I dunno about you but I like how this 95%-final version has become.

ghostfit will become famous soon enough
only one this that could break this car. Gas milage. If it doesn't return at least 40-50mpg there would be no reason to get this over a comparable fit. I say this because the engine is supposedly just a bumped up engine found in the insight. But other than that i acually like this car now. The interior look really good to without being over the top

The only way this car will do well as a 2dr is if it brings performance to the table; for the modest increase in gas mileage you lose 2 doors, huge amount of space and put yourself at the mercy of a battery pack that if/when it goes will cost you a small fortune.

IMO: Fit > CR-Z

The back changed a lot from the concept to the production concept.They shouldhave kept the body color matched A pillar. Hopefully that black A-pillar is just a black sticker, just like on the S2000.

If you clicked on the Autocar article on my post you'd have read that it has a 6-speed self-shifter.

That's ok you don't want the first model year anyway. Wait until the next year to give them a chance to iron out the bugs and recalls.

Diesel engines can actually get better gas mileage than non-diesels. The Smart Car in Europe is Diesel and it gets around 50+ mpg, definitely higher than the Smart Cars in America. Diesel engines are also more powerful than non-diesels. However, from reading the Forbes article, the CRZ will be hybrid.

QFT. The UK gallon is a little larger then the US gallon - that's where the calculation is different. Reconcile the fuel volumes and you'll have your fuel economy figure.
