You seems not to really like CR-Z eh? Whenever I promote CR-Z a bit, you will appear

Stock higher cc cars, take my stock Altis as example then. Tested with my friend's CR-Z.
Stock CR-Z tested with Nissan Teana 2.5 before as well.

Stock itself already can have such great results, tuned up won't be able to be on PAR with
certain performance cars? Tell me about it. Just because is Hybrid doesn't mean it cant perform.

Or u may test out urself with your new heart altis, experience it yourself.

I have no issues with CRZ bro, but what you mentioned is with 'performance' cars which of course related to sports car not our normal sedan cars. Of course we are talking about stock to stock basis, if tuned up then is different story as even a 86 can plonk in a 2JZ and say it can win many other cars.

On the other hand, the CRZ you tested was manual or auto?

To be fair, I think CRZ is a fantastic hybrid-sporty car, but able to match traditional high performance cars? I doubt that....and to be clear, I don't consider Altis or Teana to be under the 'high performance' car category. What kind of performance cars are you talking about?

Yes bro, what I'm trying to say is, stock CR-Z alone is already consider to be able to perform
better than what many have expected or to say real powerful for a 1.5 hybrid.

So, if a tuned up CR-Z for instance say Supercharged, I believe it can compete with a few performance cars. If were to compare a Stock CR-Z with say Type-R civic, of course is impossible.

So, Stock I compare with Stock cars like Altis and Teana. Tuned up CR-Z, which performance
car it can really have some go with, I can't comment much since I have not tested or even
driven one before myself. Just a thought of what a tuned up CR-Z can do. I believe it would
be a worthy challenger.

My friend's CR-Z Manual. Totally can't catch up from stand still...Teana case is what my friend
told me. Another friend of mine with 4AGE blacktop SEG, A/T. Can't believe he lost to a CR-Z but
not sure is modded or stock. Since is a street race. (I think you know him) recently changed to
MR2

Really impress with the CR-Z man. :top:

Not to say high performance car, Altis and Teana definitely can't be under high performance category, that part about Altis and Teana is actually comparing stock vs stock.

Sorry brothers, we all love cars. I hope I did not ignited any fight here. I like CRZ, even before buying the 8, I asked my wife if she's interested in new CRZ, used E60, used Cooper-S or used RX8 and lastly, her choice was RX8.

And those that tailgated me not only CRZ, it includes tonnes of Kancil and Wira turbos too. And also Myvi turbos. :)

On performance, let's compare stock vs. stock, I too think that CRZ is no way near any high performance cars. Probably it's 1.5 hybrid will be on par with normal 2L street family car (128hp) but that's about it.

If we talk about tuned ones, even Kancil can be dreadfully fast. So just stay with stock comparison ya.. peace!

No worries bro, no argument just discussion

Yes, which is why I stated if TUNED properly, can be on PAR with some performance cars, not to pick those high performance type. Well, ya to be fair, just compare stock vs stock.

Anyway, back to topic, RX8 is nice, yet it has 4 doors, very convenient. A hidden rear doors that remain it 2 doors beauty look sports car.

But many said is not cheap to maintain. Not really easy either and it drains fuel greatly too.
But still up to individual preferences. Came across most girls also love RX-8 a lot

High maintenance and high fuel intake is true. But when one has the passion for the car, I think these are very low or even ignored reasons when decisions are made. :)
