i have said it like 1000 time on every forum I'm on, PLEASE HONDA put a K in it...
build it and we will come...
I agree with the people who commented in the link..Im not impressed with this car at all..the only reason people give this car a glance is because of the Spoon name..when you get down to it realisticly and get over the jdm honda fanboyism.. you realize..its a rip off..sorry.

[reply]If I want to get a CR-Z with relatively decent performance I would have to spend at least $32.000--it that point wouldn't it make more sense to just buy a 370Z? This just reinforces the fact that it made little sense to make the CR-Z a hybrid as the Spoon car demonstrates in order to make give the CR-Z even a modicum of acceptable performance it needed to put $8000 of modifications and still end up with car that has performance that still is lacking when compared to the 370Z.

[reply]A 2 seat Honda that costs in the low thirtys and gets upper twenty mpgs?
How can anyone choose this over the S2000 with a hundred hp extra, convertible and double wishbones all around?
Honda sucks these days. Maybe next decade they will sort themselves out.

[reply]There's no way the fuel economy will take such a big hit as the displacement hasn't increased! They've obviously designed and fitted wilder cams and likely upped compression (which would enhance efficiency) but even so the big hit in economy would only come when driven to the limit. Cruising economy should be within a hair of the stock CR-Z. There is no way in hell it'll drop from 37 highway mpg to 29.

[reply]A waste of money. 25/29 mpg with only fewer than 160 ponies, and with a price tag going so close to $30,000. There are so many other 'better' choices.
Yeah, who would buy a heavy car with only 160hp and gets mph in the high 20s?
Hey man, if you want to spend 30k plus on this car..Im cool with that. Id be more comfortable spending that money on a Subaru or Nissan. the Legacy GT is a much better car for the money than this Honda.. with the standard I am sure you could get 30mpg and consider that it has a turbo and awd is bigger, more comfortable and safer and probably cost way less to insure than this Spoon CRZ..
Oh and I hate to burst your bubble but that video was sped up and isnt realistic on what it actually sounds like.

people will still buy it. look at the mugen si.
its silly to compare cars like 370z's s2k's subarus and whatever other sport car u can think of to the crz. honda made the crz as a sport hybrid, its not a roadster like a s2k, its not a sedan like a subaru legacy. its a gas saving sport hybrid people haha
Im just talking about the Spoon CRZ..which definetly should be compared to an 370Z,Subaru,S2K etc.. when you try to make a car sporty and charge 30k for it you fall into a different category.. a sporty 2 door hybrid shouldnt cost that much and for that price it should be more powerful,faster..you know..more bang for your buck if you value your money.
But as the other member said. Look at the Mugen SI.. companys can build and sell ANYTHING if they slap a big enough name on it or hype it up enough even when there are other cars that are way better..
i like the fact that this is the 1st hybrid to come with a 6-speed tranny. YAY HONDA!
