Re: Bisimoto CR-Z
out of curiosity, what type of non-engine related Mods would Bisimoto produce?
cus there's 2 things I'm getting right away if I buy this car and that's Lowering Springs and a Spoiler.
i haven't found lowering springs yet but the only spoiler i like that's out so far is the one from C-West:

Re: Bisimoto CR-Z
The more I see these cars, the more I want one as a daily driver. That wing looks pretty cool, I'd like to see what other styles will surface too.
Engine aside, the one thing I hope Honda got right with this car is suspension. That's one thing, in my opinion, that made a lot of older Honda's so great.

Will do! There are a bunch of developments that I will have rather soon!
Lets all just settle on this: The braking off shifting on feature is pretty cool!

Re: Bisimoto CR-Z
I bought an electric car a few years ago. a Zenn. Decided it would be cool to hop it up with triple the horsepower and controller and electronic upgrades and re-wiring shenanigans...
Long story short. I've got other major issues related to the electric system now, and low and behold... I voided my warranty, and am S.O.L. and the car hasn't moved now in 2 years.
Just thought I'd put that out there.
Although, it was badass cool (at the time) to squeal the holy crap out of the tires on my "good for the environment" electric car.... Fun while it lasted.

AHAHAHAHA, lol I doubt my 8 year old niece would fit in that seat comfortably! The gauge cluster is legit though!

Re: Bisimoto CR-Z
and what I was talking about is the lack of quality from honda the past several years cause someone stated that because a product is made by honda engineers that it shouldn't be questioned
You guys smell that???

Re: Bisimoto CR-Z
5 of them on one honda lot? doubtful. Boch honda in MA is the largest volume honda dealer in the US, and they dont even have that many.
my local dealer is getting a black ex non-navi this week, im gonna go look at it.
Bisi are you guys looking into modifying / replacing / assisting the electric motor to gain horsepower or are you guys focusing on the combustion engine part of it?

The cars are then transported by rail to distribution points, and then by car carreir to the dealerships.
It only makes sense that Montana would get any before Massachusettes. And considering the official 'launch' date, when all dealerships are supposed to have them is Aug. 24th, there should be some at dealerships on the west coast by now...
Five does seem like a lot for a single dealership, considering they only plan on selling a few thousand units in the first M.Y.

Re: Bisimoto CR-Z
Diffrent weaknesses and problems that aroused in the late 90s. Not hating on honda or their products at all so calm down guys jus saying they're quality is not as good now as say late 80s early 90s products. I personally think they would have made more money making a modern crx hf that is real good on gas and also putting out a nice SI model for us motor heads
