VIDEO: Honda's All-New CR-Z Gets Reviewed, Is This Car OVERHYPED or UNDERHYPED?

If there could be one product that was incredibly overhyped in the past 12 months, I think I can easily rest assured that my vote goes, without doubt, to Honda's all-new CR-Z. You know the "sports" car hybrid that goes 0-60 in over nine seconds and gets only 30ish MPG.

Or is it?

Well, according to one of the first reviewers from Fifth Gear, it may not be all that bad.

But I am still waiting until I drive one to believe that.

Take a look at the video below and let us know if this guy is full of it or if the CR-Z may be the next hot thing.

Discuss...

**NOTE: Remember, the MPG numbers discussed in the video are European figures

A sporty car that tells you that you're driving "to sporty". This car is pointless.

to think this is the same company that gave us the Integra , Prelude, Civic Si , Type R , RSX and S2000 ....(left out the NSX cause they never did improve on it)
Sigh!!! look like their engineers have gone old and bald and are too busy thinking of ways to lug around their colostomy bags then worry about driving.
Nissan and Mazda are the only japanese companies left with an iota of sporting DNA.. Honda has followed Toyota into the land of Vanilla where every car marked as sporting is at best a hodge podge of engineering patches...

I think Honda's problem stems from the fact that their motorbike division steals all of their engineers who want to do something fun.

Honda copied my vacuum cleaner design and used it for the front of this ugly. Silly Japs. Oh, and the Genesis coupe wants its wheels back.

LOL.
