Just bought an Ex 2012 automatic. Love the car. Handles great. Takes corners like nobodys business. Its faster than everyone says. The paddle shifters are awesome and easy to use. The interior looks like its aftermarket. If you wanna car with all the extras and a super comfortable ride that will turn heads this is it.
i just test drove one yesterday and i would totally buy this but only with the auto w/ paddle shifters way faster than the manual i almost got 44 mpg down the highway at 70 mph running right along with traffic in normal mode eco i got almost 49 mpg same speed but if your going to get this totally buy the automatic
@d1ogo360 Top Gear is an amazing show -- one launching here in the U.S. this month as well, but I hardly think comparing Top Gear to a company's online car review is a relevant comparison. Huge budget for a syndicated television program Vs a web video. And while you're laughing at the world's second largest car market's abilities, take a look at how terrible most all British cars are. I'll give you Aston Martin, but there is a reason that even IRAN makes more cars than the U.K.. :-)
@coltonmedia Iran doesn't make cars they are making nuclear bombs how ever the US needs to bomb them to stop them give them one of ours so they can't make theirs.
picked up a 6 speed EX. had a bmw 330. i like this little car a lot since i like having lots of options. my commute can use all 3 modes so i'm pressing buttons, shifting gears, enjoying the tunes or on the bluetooth phone system. it won't suite the needs of the multitude. it's a smart car, nible and fun in sport and the pleasing glow of the green halo when you're in eco really makes you feel you're doing your small part for the planet.
While I can't say for sure- I know CRZ sales in the US have stalled- and Honda (even though it may seem like it) hasn't completely forgotten the legion of performance oriented Honda fans. Most Honda loyalists were disappointed in the CRZ because it wasn't a gasoline only model with greater horsepower- so the only way to win them back is to come out with the high performance version, assuming they haven't already moved on.
The lead engineer on the CR-Z has already said they are working on a performance version of the car, and the best part about it is they are keeping it a Hybrid...
Why is that good? Because the electric engine helps with something Honda engines typically have problems with... low end torque. Check out Bisimoto CRZ vids if you want to know the potential of a future Si/Type R.
@d1ogo360@d1ogo360 What are you trying to say? American's are unable to review cars? Top Gear is the only reputable car review show in existence? Last time I checked, the market for cars in the USA is much, much larger than in the UK so it can be inferred that American car reviewers know what they are talking about. Also, unless you have lived in the US, you wouldn't understand American fascination with cars that is not shared to the extent by the British.
@d1ogo360 ....... Stick to what you do best over there in the U.K. ...Harry Potter, Dr. Who, and dancing around Stonehenge naked!!! Speaking of a good laugh..... how's that "royal" couple thing turning out?...LOL!
I really didn't like the look of this car at first, but after watching it in motion I actually don't think it looks half bad. If Honda would just fit it with one of their V-tec screamers, I'd be interested.

@cm18cam Yes I'm with you on that, the current Honda Accord design I find it not quiet a sassy look and can be mistaking for a Hyundai Sonata.
