Umm, I just googled a CR-Z and I can see no reason good reason to swap a 370Z for one.

honestly, I love hondas. I had an RSX type S for a few years and went from 40k miles to 110,000 miles without anything but oil changes, and it NEVER gave me an issue. My brand new Z has been in the shop about 6 times for stupid crap... wheel bearing, all four rotors and pads, rear hatch, axle bolts, a fingerprint in my clear coat, alignment.... and now we have an oil consumption TSB....

I baby my Z.. .I drove the piss out of my RSX... so this kind of makes sense to me.


edit - Honda transmissions are also super smooth... I cringe everytime I go into 2nd gear, ever since I had my 350z...

I used to love Hondas. I still love mostly all 92-00 civics/tegs and s2ks. Transmissions are the best in the industry (manuals) autos are garbage. Now I'm a nissan lover. My Z is absolute quality, nothing wrong whatsoever.

To each his own, drive the car that's right for you. As long as your not trading for a frecken SUV or Truck, then I would be so dissapointed.

Ken, put that wing from the last page onto one of your Fits. I'll borrow my daugther's Fit and we'll race (legally, of course!) and measure the tremendous downforce you'll be scoring!
