I've test drive the CRZ at Global Amity Honda today, yeah.... Some of the issues are:

1. The tire roar is damn loud, maybe it's the shitty Seri Kembangan road or it's ADVAN tires. Changing tires and some soundproofing should be all right.

2. This car seriously need a reverse camera due to it's blind spots. I hope they will be bringing in CRZ with GPS+Reverse Cam Monitor. Or changing into 2din HU is recommended.

3. The ECO mode is really useless..... no power, power delivery lagggggggg!!!!

4. The auto stop-start is really annoying and need to get used to it.... ><!

5. The ride is a bit harsh and some body-roll while taking some corners, the female SA is a bit terrified by the way I pump the accelerator mid-corner... LOLOL

6. Dun really care about the extent of FC, those looking for 18km/litre... U gotta be kidding urself, I'm expecting the region of 10-13km/litre with SPORTS mode all the way!!!

advan? hmm i thought they come with yokohama. yes, it has a terrible blind spot due to the small rearscreen, so im planning to fix a 2din HU with camera for mine next time. apparently, most of the drivers only use sports mode and eco is for cruising. not sure bout bodyroll though, did a sharp corner when i test drove and it felt really good, tight on the road.

FYI,the test drive unit roll on 16inch Yokohama Advan.... however I do missed out on the tyre model.....

Yeah, 2 Din HU is the way to go.... but changing the HU will void the warranty rite??? The simple method is installing a smaller screen for the reverse camera. (I'm thinking on the top of the windscreen beside the pillar)

Body-roll is apparent even my fren who squeeze to the rear seat feel them, nothing like extra anti-roll bar/strut bar to help eliminate body-roll

Looks like I'm asking my SA to proceed with my delivery cuz I've been postponing when to accept my CRZ... Still sitting on the fence. ><!

For those who did not drive sporty car before. This 1 is one of the good choice (amount Hybrid of course) haha.. If no concern on feul efficientcy or Go Green, there is always a better sporty car out there.

Correct, this is my 2nd car.. Migrade from Gen2, i just want to hv better performance and lower fuel consumption.. it's a great jump for me when you can use RM70 for 4xxKM comparing my ex-car RM70 for only 28xKM .. Performance wise, no need to say lo. Hehe..

I would call it a mini hybrid... wont use the word sports though.... maybe the handling is decent due to the lighter weight and the low end torque is usable... but that is only for Sports Mode.... so it defeats the purpose of "saving fuel".


Added on April 22, 2012, 7:20 pm

The salesman tried to convinced me saying 2013 no more tax incentive for hybrid and that the Hybrid Jazz will be at 170k instead of 90k. Abit silly... 170k for hybrid jazz? What is he smoking....

If RM170k then they won't be able to even sell one unit sweat.gif

Sure CRZ win.... stock vs stock. CRZ thanks to the battery actually have very decent usable torque at low range..

I think he refering deplete the battery. When u flying, the battery will assist u most of the time without recharge back. I tried my battery only left 4 slots when running without stopping or release the acceleration.
