I test drove my aunt's in Switzerland last weekend, the car is surprisingly fun to drive and the looks...especially in the hybrid world, are second to none.

Nice pictures as well.

The styling of the CR-Z is really appealing to me. Not sure what it is, but it's caught my eye since I first saw it.

One of the cars I was considering when I was car shopping. Was in the running till I found out there's no back seat...

But this car still gives me the googly eyes whenever I see one. Hard to find in my area...I've seen maybe 3 since it's come out.

The CR-Z is sporty on the outside and in the inside.

Personally, I don't see the logic in doing a K20A swap with a hybrid.

Because CRZ + K20A would be one epic car to drive and mod.

These shots really reminded me how much I like the CRZ's styling. There's such a mixed bag of opinions on it.

people who swap these cars aren't buying them for footprint they leave.

the hybrid should have been an option, while offering a standard K-Powered version.

Great looking CR-Z. I really like what Honda has done with this car. Now if they would only release a non hybrid sports model.
