I hear ya, but my concern is the CR-Z could very well be on the fence between sporty and hybrid. If it falls to the sporty side I would say a 5, 6 or 7-speed manual could be a valid and viable option, however, if it falls tot eh hybrid side of the fence the SVT may win out due to claimed increases in fuel economy.

I had a Nissan Murano for a week when the Titan was in for something, I just hated the feeling of the SVT, hated it!!! I really like the automatic in my Titan, and could almost live with a manual shifting auto like that is, but the SVT is just too radical for me.

OK, I wasn't gonna post this

*I* am Honda's target market for the S! I'm reading a cool book that Jeremy (NY) loaned me... so far my favorite line is:

"To our buyers, Honda's racing heritage and its history of technological innovation will be the primary purchase reasons."

I haven't had a fit for a couple days Not even when it took 3 idiots to bag 3 bags of groceries at the store today

Well only 2 were idiots - the primary bagger actually was "slow" and I give him the benefit of having a disability. He at least put all my cold items in one bag. The other two supposed "smart" people did more running of their mouths than anything else

Grocery shopping can indeed be a challenge...
And having worked as a bagger in high school I know all too well how it should be done.

It's Steves fault for reviving NE. It was dead on Monday and Tuesday.
