Look I'm not disagreeing with your sentiments - the CR-Z isn't a performance car, not even close - and yes if performance is what you want, look elsewhere, and don't even expect much from Honda - it's clear the era of cars like the Prelude, Integra and NSX is long gone as far as Honda is concerned. But we weren't looking for a performance car - and fully appreciated the limitations of the CR-Z.
As for this forum, i find it interesting to see a forum ostensibly about Honda cars, and a thread about the CR-Z dominated by posts from people who neither dive a Honda, nor drive a CR-Z as if its a hot performance car - which it never will be.
And lastly, flaming a first post from a new user isn't exactly a great way to welcome a new member - possibly the only one who actually owns an example of the car discussed in this thread.
Bye bye dreamers, i won't disturb you again.

You edited your first post to add a bit about calling us dreamers? We don't need that sort of attitude here either. If you think owning a 45k car gives you the right to call us dreamers, think again.
And if you think your CRZ is called a Z, you really need to go back to school and learn what a Z is.
Get your head out of your arse.
It's people like you who come here, provoke responses like this and then go to your other forums whinging about how ozhonda is full of P plater fgts yadayadayada.

Should of gone to specsavers (i mean ozcrz.com) wtf am i thinking
I think he bought the car for the 'it' factor
Then flaunts his car thinking he's kewl and gets flamed

if you are a troll however, I take my hat off to you. You've got the reaction you wanted, and the evidence you wanted. Now go back and cry to your crz forums about how mean the rest of us Honda owners are

I've driven the CRZ and the Veloster and it's frigging terrible. The ride is too harsh, it is really only a 2 seater because no way in hell can you fit another person in the back and the boot space is abysmal. Sure, steering is pretty good, the gearbox is a dream to row, handles like a go kart and is ok-ish on fuel.
BUT...............................the Veloster is a better car overall. More space everywhere. More equipment. 5 years unlimited kms warranty. It looks amazing straight away; the CRZ design needs to grow on you. AND for $32k you'd get the SR Turbo, which has 150kW, more power than a CRZ can dream of. Hyundai has started to build cars Honda used to.
And for $32k on the open market, it's Evo 8MR, GDB STis, facelifted S2000s, 350Z, RX7, GTR32/33, old 911s, BMW M3 E46, HSV/FPV money........all of which will ruin a CRZ, much less a Honda, anyday.

My friends Velostar's sunroof shattered in its own in the garage after only 3 months if owning it. There have been similar cases of this happening around the world, just google it.
No matter what, it's still a Hyundai and the build quality isn't there. Wonder why there are hardly anymore Exels on the streets anymore.
-
thats cause all the excels are bought up and used for rallying
peteju captures, like us on facebook..

Excels are actually pretty tough. That car was a big success for Hyundai in Oz. It's neglectful owners who never serviced them that made the engines wear out prematurely.

This, and the posts that preceded and followed it, were spot on.
Somebody is trying to flaunt their purchase and get some praise for it in order to stave off the crippling buyer's regret that consumes you when you throw away $45k on a car that nobody asked for.
On the CR-Z/Veloster debate: I'm a fan of Hyundai for making hot hatches and RWD coupes, but I think the Genesis and Veloster both look like shit, the Veloster especially. I prefer the looks of the CR-Z, it's just a shame it doesn't have the performance philosophy of the Veloster.
I'd love a Genesis with a turbo 4 that looked like the Kia Cerato coupe.
