The emperor's new clothes!
Over the weekend I had the chance to go to the annual Eibach meet to check things out. Honda brought out one of the new CRZs for enthusiasts to check out. I can't figure out why people are trying to promote the CRZ as the next big thing. Other than looking cool, the CRZ is far from being a game-changing tuner/performance sport compact; it is everything BUT that. If I wanted a battery-powered grocery getter, I would buy a "Rascal;" at least with a Rascal I could actually drive it IN the grocery store. Maybe a car with a battery-assisted 1.5L engine and a "sporty look"' might appeal to some, but the only hybrids that I think are cool are the ones with B, F, H, J, and K swaps.
Am I one the only one who's noticed that the emperor is not wearing any clothes?
