The Honda CR-Z went on sale in Japan last week. It may not be the long-awaited reincarnation of the CR-X, but the accompanying commercial gives us glimpses of past greats like the Super Cub, T360, S600s both roadster and coupe, and Civic. There’s even a shot of the original bullet train, the 0 Series Shinkansen. The Impossible Dream it’s not, but the sequel is rarely as good as the original.
that’s a pretty catchy song, haha. I tried to Shazam it but it was unrecognized
the mk 1 shinkansen leaves me all misty-eyed

what did you say? oh never mind 😉
Alan – what did you say? I don’t think any of the mods deleted a comment.
It’s really weird, I saw it here, it definitely posted.

Looks pretty good on the road. The interior is a bit too fussy for my liking though.
