Please read up on the very clear distinction between the meaning of "want" and "need". I believe you are confusing those terms.

In your post there is nothing that refers to "want" and "need". You simply say that you only use 35hp of whats available from your yaris. Which is fine and dandy but, the CR-Z is suppose to be a sporty hybrid not just another hybrid.

I saw the profile picture posted earlier (first one I've seen of the production version). My guess is that the ugly snout is the result of the new Euro pedestrian collision regulations. The new regs have eliminated pop-up headlights and low hood lines among other things. All part of "progress" I guess...

Instead of being condescending towards a fellow forum member, why not just post the distinction as you understand it?
