QUOTE(Ryos @ Jun 16 2012, 04:23 AM) Maybe some of the CRZ enthusiasts here can clear this rumour for me... My friend told me Honda Japan plan to cease production of CRZ manual transmission model after June/July batch. Can anyone clarify on this matter?  Your friend must be bullshitting you. How can it be called a Hybrid hot hatch when there isn't an option for manual transmission. To be honest, CRZ comes best in manual transmission. Those auto / CVT transmissions aren't meant for pure sporty drive. BTW, I would like to know what is the CRZ top speed (Manual variant)?

Yeah it sounds kinda contradict to me too since CRZ is a global car model, how can the Japan side can stop production for no apparent reason. Anyway my friend is a CRZ owner too and he managed to top 196km/h. That's what he said to me lah...

Honda Japan may still produce MT CRZ, but whether or not Honda Malaysia will be bringing it in will be a different story. But yes, manual is the way for sporty drive, not CVT. As for the top speed, there has been pics taken at 227kmh... definitely not for the faint-hearted http://www.crzforum.com/forum/honda-cr-z-o...ed-222km-h.html

Anyway, there are tons of speed demons out there, some hit 230+kmh with the CRZ... but he had some exhaust and air filter mods... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEYyyUbkPIwI have never taken my CRZ to that speeds before, don't think I'll ever will...

And because of 2 seaters only, you cannot let friend(s) sit together for the feel. Anyone who go there for test drive remember to press the Sport button!! Last time I forgot about it and ride in Econ mode... This post has been edited by Ryos: Jun 17 2012, 07:45 PM
