Just got our new crz yesterday. !! My face hurts from smiling so much. our other car is a prius, the best of both worlds. what a beautiful toy this is in candy red. Its not a mid life crisis if its a hybrid , Right?

Hello and congrats ! Do yourself a favor and don't try to compare fuel economy to the prius. I find that from time to time I throw gas milage out the window and just drive it in sport mode and have some fun. You will find lots to read here. Enjoy.

16,000 Miles in 9 months. Yep I like it

Welcome and congrats. I have had mine for 4 days and constantly find "reasons" to take it out for a ride

I laughed real hard at that mid life crisis part. Had exactly the same thoughts when I was buying mine. Personally a "CRISIS" car buy in my opinon is a Vette. Now wheather you buy it before or after picking up your new hair piece is a matter for discussion

(NO disrespect towards Corvettes nor Premature balding is intended)

Congratz and welcome!

We bought our CR-Z (our first hybrid) at age 65. We like it a lot

For us it is very fun to drive car that also has a clever way of using its
kinetic energy to save gas.

It's a win-win!

Welcome.

Your face muscles will get used to it

I still can't believe it when I see mine in the garage, it's so darn cool! And no, it's no midlife crisis to want something cool and gas efficient. Welcome to the owners "club."

Enjoy your new Z

Woo hoo! Congratulations!

lol @ "mid-life crisis"!!! I sorta felt the same way buying it, but instead I was having the "this might be the last time I can get a 2 seater car before I have a kid" thought

Welcome!

Turning 41 Sunday, no midlife crisis, no kids in my past and none in my future! I just love my little two seater.
