!!2!! new Honda cars here

[washernoob]

Yes, not just one anymore folks, but Two new hondas here.

My mom got the 2009 Honda Fit I mentioned the other day. But my dad also got something. A 2011 Honda CRZ Hybrid.

Of course he just HAD to trade in his amazing 2007 Ford Mustang GT. I was, and am still not, too pleased with the decision.

BUT

I will have to say.... THE CRZ IS A SEXY CAR! WOW! Didn't expect it to be this cool. It makes the toyota prius look like a pile of cow dung on the side of the road! its very sleek designed, the dash is just amazing, 6 speed transmission, comfortable... what more can one ask for?

And both cars are very very very quiet! You can hardly hear the CRZ.

fit front....

Mehhh ugly in my opinion. A little to peppy/girly looking. Sorry!

 

[washernoob]

Now on to something with a little more class!

The very sharp CRZ.

2 seater. Very much like the CRX but way cooler in my opinion.

 

[washernoob]

The rear end.

Best looking hybrid in my opinion next to the toyota hilander SUV from a few years back.

 

[washernoob]

OK the thing that surprised me the most is the CRZ has legitimate rims.

LOOK AT THE DASH! Oh its so fancy and beautiful. So many colors and buttons.

AND ITS IN 3D!

Love it!

I cant wait to drive it around. I love 6 speeds.

 

[qsd-dan]

6 speeds.

6 speed auto trans or manual trans?

Which Car...

Will tow the boat ? Might need both of them.

I like the CRZ.

 

[washernoob]

The CRZ is a 6 speed manual transmission. The black Fit is a 5 speed manual.

We still also have the blue 2003 Ford Expedition to tow the boat.

My green 1997 expedition that you can see in the rear shot of the CRZ has bit the dust 2 times in the last week. My dad is now refusing to fix it. We cant sell it since its on the boat loan so it will sit quiet.

I was driving it yesterday and the power steering and breaks went out when I pulled out of my schools parking lot. :S Turned it back on and they worked but I aint driving it!

I think they're both hot looking, it's manly and butch to be fuel efficient now - the "new pink" as they say on Madison Ave. Well, you know what I mean...

Sorry to hear about the Expedition but perhaps you'll be able to drive the Hondas and it will help enforce the "no more vacs" rule you set for yourself!

 

[washernoob]

LOL...

I get to drive the 2003 Expedition now. Which gets, according to the on-dash display, 11.1 average miles per gallon.

That CR-Z is a sexy little car... I love the dash... all of those delicious buttons!

I often wondered when Honda was going to revisit a sporty little 2-door, 2-seater. Just checked Honda's website.. I like how they pay homage to their past models... I saw a CR-X a few weeks ago; one really doesn't see those very often anymore.. I like how the lines on the CR-Z are a throwback to the CR-X.
