I think a roof spoiler works, just not that spoiler. Just looks to chunky and non-functional, like you built it out of silver Legos or something.

I like the mugen spoiler, too. It would make me feel like I was driving a toy

Forget waiting 2-4 years... I'm going to start looking for a used cr-z early next year!

Hopefully everything will work out with my boyfriend's finances, and he can buy my civic I want it to stay in the "family". I would miss it... Cars have feelings!

Forget early next year... I am picking up my CR-Z tonight!
Here he is: 2011 Honda CR-Z - JHMZF1D65BS000656 | Ralph Honda | Done Right

My boyfriend will be getting my civic. I didn't want to see my civic go, although I am super excited to be a CR-Z owner! You can find me under the same username on crzforum.com

Sweeeet. Did anyone see the overpriced Mugen Limited edition CRZ? Supercharged motor and everything, something like 200hp and like $30k or something dumb expensive.

There are people who pay for that... And thats alot of hp compared to the 122 mine gets. Drove it to work today, was awesome

I had to get my parking pass changed for the work parking lot. I told the lady it was a CR-Z, and the pass that printed out said CR-X. Hah!

>200 hp and $30k is like Subaru BRZ money. Just not worth it at all. Although I like the look of the CRZ mugen edition or w/e it is called.

Those special editions will be sold quickly I am sure. I really can't see them holding much value though.

My 20 year old Civic makes better numbers. I love the idea of the crz. I hate the reality.

I turned from the civic being my favorite to the crz mostly because of the styling, and that its a hybrid. I can count on one hand the number of crz's I have seen since the beginning of the year. The fact that its a head turner puts a smile on my face, like when at work I parked next to a prius, and later I saw the owner walking around my car haha. Most people around here have never seen one. And have never heard of it.

It's definitely not common! From a performance standpoint, it's not great. Torsion bars, solid rear axle... I loooove how they look, I love the CRX too, but the CRZ is full of compromise. Something that was supposed to be the resurrection of the CRX HF. I'd get one if it lived up to the CRX name. Maybe I'm expecting too much. It's meant to compete with the prius (I think) after all.

Well, just like the CRX, they only came in 4 seaters overseas! Honda is funny lol.
