I am so ashamed...

I saw a Honda CRZ today, and I'm ashamed to admit it, I actually liked the looks of it. It looks quite sporty. And it's the only hybrid with a manual tranny. I'd love to have one for my 120 mile daily round-trip commute...

Carmen, sit down,place a damp rag on your forehead,get a cold glass of water and a Fox. It'll be alright. Maybe it's a form of withdrawals.

At least you admitted it...that's the first step to recovery.LOL.

I was driving by the local Honda dealer a few weeks ago. I looked over at the cars parked on the front row and saw a cool looking car ....but, I thought to myself, "dang, when did Ford make a Taurus wagon?"

Turns out, it was a Honda Accord Crosstour :shakehead

It's a shame automakers don't make a car that has its own character, anymore. One used to be able to tell a Ford from a Chevy from a Nissan from a Pentastar from a Honda from a Toyota. Not anymore :(

For a Hybrid, it is definitely one of the better looking ones. The Volt is my favorite looking car out of the group. But the mileage doesn't seem to be that much better than the Mini Cooper S.

my buddy went to the local honda dealer last week to look at one and he was practically humping it. hes wanted it when he saw the one at the carshow around here some months ago. the salesmen would not give him a brochure and refused to let him sit in it since they just got it but he didnt care. i fear if he can swing the dough for it he may get one.
then he asked me what "I" thought of it....
after the initial shock of informing him that homoshaguality is widely accepted in todays world and i would not cast him aside for making a proud statment to that by purchasing this car he had the nerve to get offended and walked away. what a jerk :toilet:
also i think it looks like the insight but smaller which is also ugly.

Hmmm.

In my thinking, Vinnie, you are close.

Sit down.
Place a damp rag on your forehead.
Pour a Bicardi.
Get a fox.

But yeah, you were very close.
