honda canada dropped one off for us to test drive the other day, we also have one on the lot for sale
its not a drag car, but it handles very well and was a riot to rip around a twisty section of road near my work in

Dropped by Rmd honda today to check it out..

salesman was very very polite. showed me the white showroom model.

looks better in person, love the interior. exterior.. the front bothers me.


he thought i was crazy to think about selling the ITR and getting one of these.. HAHA

quoted five grand down, looking at about 325ish + tax for financing.. not too bad actually..

only wish is that it'll get a larger motor, and make it rev higher with a DOHC head..

Drove the 6spd last weekend and disappointed :-(

The steering feedback & throttle response are fucked up
in Sport mode was still ok.
in Normal mode was like......Eh? (very light steering & slow throttle response)
in the fucking ECO mode was like WTF WTF.......I felt nth!!! (almost no feedback from the steering wheel, throttle response was just wrong)


Its a gd looking & very easy to drive car
but I'm disappointed with Honda

its a 2 seater.
Those "seats" in the back are bins for storage...not seating.
There are not seat belts in the back.

What dealership did you visit?

I think its time for a test drive. Haven't been excited about a Honda product in awhile. Albeit, I don't have any high expectations in regards to performance but if its a Honda at least the gearbox should be decent.

I wonder if you could safely (and legally) install the JDM rear seats and seatbelts. If you could then I'd seriously consider this.

I'm sick of two-seaters. They were cool when we were 17 but now it doesn't make sense anymore unless you have a second car haha.

The car is not made to be fast. Its made to be a fun sporty car that is good on gas just like the original crx. That didn't have a B16 or B18c or anything of that sort. It was not very fast either but still fun to drive.

dropped by at kingsway honda yesterday.

the crz looks nicer that what id thought it would be. interior/exterior is really hawt. i would seriously consider one as a second car next to the evo since they are exactly opposite powerwise/gas mileage/body style etc etc. if someone finds out how to put extra seats in the rear + seat belts, i would buy one...
