2011 Honda Civic FD 2.0 - it is a choice between the new and the old, the old is of course having a better DOHC 2.0 iVTEC engine which is the basis of the TypeR's engine, however this one instead of being focus for performance is focus on reliability, fuel economy and some performance (don't get me wrong it is a heck of an engine but it is no TypeR). The 1800cc and 2000cc engines from the current FB civic's are all SOHC iVTEC which actually does the reliability, fuel economy, reduce carbon emissions better but performance does suffer abit but still no worse than it's peers like Lancer GT, Inspira and Altis -- the probable only exception is Mazda 3 Skyactiv as Mazda really did a revolution with the skyactiv technology. IMHO it is a togh decision the old one is better but it is getting old -- no worries about support or getting parts but it is a psychological matter as you don't wanna be driving an 8gen honda and still paying for it's loan when the 10gen is coming out very soon as i expect this 10gen to be a real good product as most of Honda Civic with even number generations do very well, e.g. 6gen & 8gen. If you don't mind then go for the 8gen it looks great still today (better than 9gen) plus aftermarket parts and clubs still love to play with this car if you just wanna keep it stock it is cheap to maintain too.

2011 Mitsubishi Lancer Sportsback - the hatchback/stationwagon version of the Lancer. It might be more expensive than maintaining a normal Lancer due to it's bigger engine (the crazy fella's put a D-segment engine in a C-segment car) but the performance is there. Although not an Evo it is the most powerful Mitsubishi you can get which won't burn your pocket if anything goes wrong. I did wrote about it earlier, do find that post.

Of course CRZ/Jazz/City they are all safe choice.....the ones above is what the heart wants but mebbe u r not too sure so i just explained the pros/cons for u to decide.

young fella, sure like crz....  but understand that
i)   its 2nd hand so it will cost abit more for upkeep in the near future, a new car would come with warranty and obviously, basically no wear and tear when you 1st get it
ii)  the crz is 'less' practical than the city, 2 doors vs 4 doors
iii) about the performance figures..... erm, all 3 (other than the civic) are about the same.... a stock crz is a all show no go kinda car, the civic would be definately be faster

Anything below 100k don't talk about performance.
Even CRZ doesn't really have performance.
Basically Jazz, City and CRZ all more or less have the same engine output, might be good and nippy for city driving and quick dash pickup from traffic light or round-about but when it comes to highway speeds it can't compete with the Civic, even the 1.8 Civic does 150km/h steadily at only 2500rpm, while punny 1.5cc engines would be roaring like a JAV star.

if the biggest worry is the maintenance, then get the city/jazz.... crz will probably cost you the MOST long term

**ohh wait sorry..... i read you wanted to focus on the crz** oops!!! im blur
