Cousins?
 

When possible, I've been parking away from the crowd, in hope that my "new" Insight won't get hit or scuffed up. So look what parked jay on the other side of "my" light pole: a Honda CRZ hybrid.

hope it's a hot chick and you can hit it off right away!!!

Wife would not approve. But it's an autotragic transmission; maybe a woman does indeed drive it.

Somehow, Honda managed to add almost 1000lbs to that car while not giving it any more utility. It's a bit faster, but not really all that much, and returns nowhere near the same fuel economy. In my humble opinion the G1 handles better too, all else being equal (tires).

I do like the CR-Z's seats a bit better.

It's interesting that the same company put out two vehicles that look so similar, but are so different. A shame they couldn't decide whether to make it fast or efficient, and settled on neither. I bet it would sell much better if they would pick one.

Congrats on your new car. And good luck parking out in the middle of nowhere. Years ago, I parked a new car out there and had a B#### park her old 71 Ford 2 door next to mine and open her car door into the side of my new car. Then I remembered what keys are for!.

It doesn't matter where I park someone has to park next to me, not sure if they just want to ding my door or what the deal is.

Both are so very cool looking. The CRZ is a shark. And both sold so terribly that I have not felt comfortable when considering buying one because... parts expensive and little available.

my thoughts too. haha

Both were made in homage of the CRX and thus resemble that. sadly the CRX was lighter still, faster, and equal to better MPG. Oh how I miss mine.
Honda could not decide if the CRZ was an eco car or a sporty car and manged to make it neither.
