That’s a nice thought, but consumers want more and more standard features every year and prices kept low. There is a march of technology getting cheaper simultaneously, but not at the same rate. It doesn’t come for free. Most of the high volume cars and crossovers have profit margins in the 4-10% range. Only the…

No it’s not. 650 hp SAE is ~415 hp at 12,100 feet elevation.

Yay! The big, heavy average vehicle is about to get heavier.

Even at high altitude this car is still going to be fast. For everyone at normal elevations this being NA is fantastic. Excellent response, drivability, less heat, less complexity, better sound, less weight. 

There’s no way it’s under $100k

*confused look*

911 GTS. Done. 

Longer, wider and heavier. Not a fan of those changes. Current Civic Si is the dominant car in SCCA G street autocross. This one may not continue that trend due to the size.

I don’t own any FWD cars, but this is a bad take. Luddites, Inc?

Miatas are pretty expensive cars, considering what you get. Decent ones are over $30k. 

New Maverick has to win this one. 

It’s not genuine. It’s marketing bullshenanigans.

What an absolute waste and complete and utter virtue signaling.

Why would they give away an enticing engine? That would be really dumb from an income perspective.

Keep an eye on your clutch pedal. I had my 2015 for 6 years and 94k miles, just sold it in June. The weld quality at the joint between the main pedal beam and the tube it rotates around is shit and I’m far from the first person to have to replace it. It’s basically vehicle disabling when it fails, and the whole brake…

Someone doesn’t understand that those reliability ratings are not strongly associated with the primary systems of the vehicle, but a lot of infotainment complaints. 

Ordering vehicles right now is very long lead time. Chip and other supply shortages.

In what way? High or low?

It was slow, boring to drive. Conceptually cool, but a huge letdown in all performance metrics. 

What were you driving as a reference where the CR-Z was fun? It was boring coming from a 4 cyl Accord...
