Impressive Sports Coupe
I can't agree with the assessment made by the Edmunds reviewer about handling and performance. Having owned multiple sports cars (911s, 914, MGB, CRX Si etc) over the years, my just acquired 2014 EX model has surpassed my expectations, provides impressive lateral grip even with all season tires (more than most passengers will want to endure) and the acceleration in sport mode is comparable to a Miata, and more than adequate in normal. I just averaged 42.6 mpg on a 250 mile back highway road trip with speeds averaging 70mph. Interior fit and finish and quality of materials are on par with cars costing many thousands more, and the instrumention and dash is well designed and monitors many functions. All in all, this car deserved to carry the torch of the long revered CRX, and no it doesn't need a back seat!

way more them they give credit
when you look at the stats and specs that this car is givin its misleading. saying its not fast enuf or the gasmilage isnt what its supost to be, i must disagree i got the 6mt and was told 31-38 thats not what im getting im up to 43 avg. and the 0-60 they claim im blowing it away and i havent even givin it all its got its about 6 sec witch is faster then any car in its price range the sport and eco buttons make a huge diffrence and the s+ gives you something extra too. i think if honda and other companies would have tested it properly they would have sold more. i wasnt going to buy it after looking up online reviews but after testing it i couldnt refuse its far more then they give it credit

Sporty 6 Speed Manual!
I picked up this little 2013, 6 speed manual CR-Z after the original owner hit a deer in it. The damage wasn’t horrible. I put a junkyard bumper, fender, and hood on it, and started driving it. I am amazed with the car! It is very peppy, fast and nimble. I have two nice Mercedes, and find myself driving this CR-Z most of the time. I put about $20 bucks gas in it a week. I am highly impressed with it. It doesn’t use a drop of any fluids, and low miles. I have since decided to keep it, and sell one of the Mercedes.

Perfect with a purpose
Bought nearly new 2015 with only 8,000 miles. This is a 2nd car for me used purely for highway commuting or some fun driving from time to time. It’s just me so the lack of a back seat means nothing. I’m 6’1” and the seat is very comfortable. Seat isn’t even all the way back. In sport mode it is not straight line fast, but is very quick. Steering is sharp and sticks to the road pretty well. I would classify this as very fun to drive compared to any compact/subcompact. It’s not a true sports car and all the reviews knocking it aren’t fair in my opinion. For what it is, it’s a blast to drive. Best of all, my pure highway commute using eco mode and cruise control is bringing back 48+ mpg every tank. I plan to keep this as long as possible as a commuter. Only downside for me is getting in. You do really almost fall in. Sits pretty low. Getting out isn’t bad though.

Much more fun than the Prius C
It looks and behaves like a sport car...but it is still a hybrid. I purchased it for a terrific price with only 21000 miles on it...it got 42 to 43 on the freeway and gets 36 in the city...not bad!
