Dat ass.
It's some sort of silencer, I've seen it on a few modern aftermarket exhaust too. I don't understand how the exhaust gets out if it's covered with a cap though...I never understood what that lid-type thing on the end of exhausts was for. All the dune buggy cars at the ROC events have them as well.
Where does the exhaust come out? Does it squeeze out the sides or something?The "spacers" between the cap and the actual muffler determine flow and therefore how loud it is.

You went back 400 pages to show me an RX7 with a body kit?
Oh look, Terrible Car has been lowered and given a center exhaust!
I love that cage/the whole interior. 👍

It does look good, and I'm sure it's fun to drive. I'm not elitist, I'm traditional. I like to be able to fix things that go wrong with my car, and since even the technicians have to go through extensive hybrid-specific electrical training then you can bet fiddling with the thing in my garage is out of the question. It's got a bunch of unnecessary hybrid technology packed in there which doesn't create much, if any benefit other than raising production costs and making people feel smug. It still gets the same gas mileage as all those crappy compacts from the 80s and 90s, especially various models of Honda's own CRX and Civic, both of which are perfectly acceptable cars to drive in the modern world, especially the second-gen CRX which happens to have one of the most clever interiors I've ever laid eyes on. The fact that those old CRXs and Civics have the same kind of performance potential, a very heavy performance aftermarket and OEM market with parts starting at super cheaper and going up to slightly less cheap, and are easily maintained in your driveway in a rain storm by the most half-witted of car enthusiasts proves to me that they're by far the better car. They can also be had for as little as a tenth the price of this newfangled smugmobile. You happen to own a 199Old NA Miata, so I know you know where I'm coming from. But you're British, so you like new car technology by default. Ugh, what has F1 done to people these days...The actual term for the CR-Z is "car that internet elitists and people scared of anything new and different hate, but is actually supposed to be great fun which is exactly what Honda always said it'd be"...
Aaaaanyway, I think it looks ace. More small cars should have centre-exit exhausts. It's been awesome ever since original Mini Coopers did it.
