It really is too bad that Ontario requires a front license plate
Honda Canada/USA 2011 CR-Z Sport Aero Package
Honda Canada/USA 2011 CR-Z Sport Aero Package
During the past few days at Yonge-Dundas Square (Toronto's pathetic attempt at New York's Times Square) Honda Canada had a white Standard CR-Z EX with Honda sport/aero package (no official name for this package yet). This CR-Z looked quite a bit sportier and more agressive than the automatic CVT CR-Z EX (without sport/aero package and with regular 16 inch rims) I test drove last week.

Very noticeable are the 17 inch rims. Non-staggard 17x7-inch 5 bi-spoke alloy wheels with 205/45R17 Bridgestone Potenza RE760 Sport tires
Rear deck spoiler painted to colour match the car.
Rear diffuser (bottom part of rear bumper)
Side skirt - spoiler - flare thingy **
Front lip spoiler - actually front chin guard spoiler thingy **
I really don't know what to call the last two,... since they're not full Side Skirt or complete Front Lip Spoiler in the traditional manner.
The Rear diffuser, side skirt/spoiler/flare thingy and the front lip spoiler/chin guard are made of a flexible plastic with a matte carbon fiber design-look.
According to the Honda Canada Product Consultant/rep all these items can be sold as a package or separately. They are mounted by the Honda dealer.

Yeah,.... car got that bucktooth look going.
Well,... if you live in a province or state or country that requires a front license plate,.... you'll probably be able to get a gominigo bracket to remount your license plate on the bumper instead of on the grille. See on the driver (right) side of the front bumper,... there`s a little circular cover that you can take off and insert an eye-bolt (see that large bolt with donut ring on top stored next to jack in spare tire storage area) used to tow the car out of a ditch and or shipping. gominigo can create a bolt for there and connect it to a front license plate bracket.
gominigo currently does not have a license plate bracket for the Honda CR-Z yet,... but they will likely come out with one. gominigo.com

Sorry, no idea on pricing for these accessories. 17 inch Rims are probably most expensive, followed by rear deck spoiler. Rear diffuser, side skirt/spoiler/flare thingy and the front lip spoiler/chin guard are just flexible plastic with carbon fiber pattern-look.
Forgive those blue stars on the CR-Z. They're fridge magnets from a charity that passerbys placed onto the CR-Z.

About the licenseplate; I gone try it with a sticker under the light. Its quite legal here as they use it on porches, Ferrari and stuff.
Anyway your plate is white and blue; its kind of fits the car! (just lile the star
)

I don't get it why this thread is in the news? There nothing different as the options before in Japan or in Europe. There is even a visitor who is riding with all these options.
Pricing would be around the same like in Europe.. so.. a lot
example +/- 400$ for the tailgate spoiler
+/- 700$ for the tailgate spoiler + front lip (fake) carbon

More pics of rear diffuser. Sporty looking car,.. but no big shiny tip! Where is the muffler,... hiding! Oh, it is a hybrid,... so do not emphasis the exhaust!
Interestingly,... this standard CR-Z EX with sports-aero package has Ontario license plate "BKAD 802" wheras the CVT CR-Z EX I test drove last week had "BKAD 839". Does that means Honda Canada has at least 37 of these CR-Z EX running around in Ontario already???

YLA,.... yes,... some of these Honda CR-Z accessories are available in Japan and Europe. But seeing them available on a Honda Canada CR-Z means they these particular accessories will also be available in Canada and likely USA. Some of the CR-Z accessories available in Japan might be a bit too "rice" for North American taste and will not make it here. Also, some parts like the Rear diffuser are different, in Japan it comes with 2 red reflectors in the side part of the read diffuser,.... in Canada (and likely USA) it will come with grey honeycomb pattern.
