The hybrid engine didnÕt have as much horsepower as the V-Tec gasoline engine in the old CR-X. This is disappointing. It's more of a daily commuter than a performance vehicle, which is not why most people would buy the CR-Z.

I love the design of this car. It is very sporty but also doesn't break the bank on gas. The overall quality of the car is good. It is very tech friendly and offers a lot of futuristic features. My only con is it does not have a back seat. The pros outweigh the cons, and I will go in to as much detail as I can.

I have to say that so far this vehicle has been very reliable and I believe that I have certainly gotten my money's worth for what I paid. If I have a favorite feature it is the efficiency in terms of high gas mileage and very little maintenance problems. If I have a least favorite feature I believe it would be the lower roof, which sometimes annoys me when climbing into the car as I am quite tall.
