    crz's a great achievement
    don't think of it as ruining a sports car,
    think of it as improving the image of hybrids.

    I love my 2014 CRZ, gets lots of attention and regualarly get over 40mpg. Vast improvement over my old 2007 Saturn Auro XR 3.6 V6 with only got mid 20s. Slower yes, but still very fun to drive

      I'll chime in here. Got a 2013 model. Love it all over the south US. Gets 40 mpg regularly. Just about to hit 100k miles and still looks great next to newer cars. Engineering wise, it's damn solid. Only hade to replace battery, tires, oil. No major repairs needed as of yet. Only thing that got my goat is: the door handle. Plastic make that gave out a few weeks back, so I have to unlock and open the passenger door to drop my window on the drivers side. $118 part and an estimated 3 hours to replace.

      @Vamp898 7 лет назад +5

      The K20A needs the double amount of fuel... and for 200hp, this is far from economical at all! The 310hp Civic Type R needs less fuel then the 201hp Civic Type R with the K20A Engine...

      Did you pick a CRZ up? I just picked up one last week, 2011 manual, a very fun car to drive. It's not fast like my FD2R and it encourages me to drive sensibly and get the most fuel economy. A joy to drive that's for sure!
