Just picked up this crz a couple weeks ago. Honestly I don't know why so many reviewers hate this car. Honda should've just called it a hatchback and been done with it. As soon as they whispered the word "sport" a bunch of fan boys must've jumped in the air screaming "awww yeaaaa mad k20 vtecsss yo!!!". It's crazy. This is a real solid car. The build quality is great. A ton of options. Bluetooth works amazingly. And in sport mode it has all the power you need for traffic situations. You might not win any drag races, but honestly, who cares? 16year olds and 30 year olds that refuse to grow up. Lol.

Anyways. My car is Milano red ex cvt. I didnt see a need for a manual. It just a daily driver.

I got the same exact car and also got it about 2 weeks ago . I agree it's plenty powerful enough especially in passing situations . Don't know what all the fuss is about , it handles fantastic , had to make an emergency move yesterday that not many cars could have pulled off and certainly not as controlled . I feel like some reviewers must have driven a different car than the one I have .

Welcome! Great picture.

I've got a brother in Boston (although he drives a Camry as he's in the "family car" stage right now). I'll look out for you when I next visit him!

Good colour choice, BTW.
