Unique Hybrid, too bad it is no longer in production
I really love my CR-Z. It's sexy looking, dependable, fun to drive and gets pretty good mileage. It's looks first struck me and I just did not find another car that appealed to me (at least not for under $30K). Test drove and with its 6 sp manual I found it responsive and just plain fun. I needed a high MPG vehicle for my commute and reduce overall costs while still having a positive driving experience. My previous car was the Subaru WRX rocket with a 5 sp manual. The CR-Z doesn't move as fast, but with its terrific manual stick shift, I did not card. Nice, not having to purchase premium fuel too. I have 156,000 miles on it, averaged 43 MPG over the last 5 years for all driving. My best mileage was around 61MPG with very special driving. Typical commutes are 40% hwy, 40% suburban, and 20% heavier traffic (city).
