When I first saw the CRZ I thought, "Its a hybrid.. nobody will fix those up" .. but I was surprised to learn that several performance parts have been made for the hybrid cars

I've seen a few at the dealerships.. Anyone plan on picking one up? Aftermarket will be booming for this car.. Tanabe has a slew of parts ready to come out.

i think the CR-Z looks great, but i have absolutely no love desire to own one for the sole reason that is its a hybrid.

that'd be SO sick. i can't wait to see some of these modified, they should be pretty bad a** cars when people get done with them. I love the sleekness it has.

well, the Top Secret CRZ is slated for 150 HP. from what i've read, the Spoon CRZ was putting down 145 HP NA with a rebuilt engine. the little bit makes a difference. So before judging this car cuz it's a hybrid, I think something big is happeneing here with the CRZ. NOW, if Toyota can stop making cars for senior citizens and build us something exciting, hybrid or not.
