New Guy in Chester County, PA - Honda CRZ Forum: Honda CR-Z Hybrid Car Forums

First of all, this is the second time I'm writing this, lost power the first go round earlier so this write up will not be as good, mostly from a flow perspective, as the first. I'll just shoot out the facts.

That being said.......

I picked up a black CR-Z last Saturday and is completely the direct opposite of any vehcile I've owned (more according to my friends than from my perspective). The reason I say that is that I've been driving Mercedes for about 10 years and the past two years I've been in my performance phase (Modded 2009 MB C55 AMG and a Modded 2010 SRT-8 Jeep Grand Cherokee). Also keep in mind that I have a serious "car problem" as the CR-Z is number 41 (wife wants to choke me). Additionally, just traded in my 2009 HD 1200 Nightster for a 2011 Honda CBR 600 RR so my "sickness" is now expanding to two wheels.

The main reason I got this car is because it's essentially a freebie (I get a car allowance through work), but I actually am growing to like it for what it is and actually feels pretty good knowing that it's a hybrid. It's no barn burner, but then again compared to my SRT it never could be so I take solice in the fact that I'm saving the world. LOL.

Anyway, I've seen some really nice ones on line thus far and look forward to getting to know the car and the community.

Your original thread exists. Anyway, welcome again!

Also, I asked in your other post, did you get your CR-Z from Scott Honda?
