Rep Power: 0 I always thought the Pilot is the Honda version of the Acura MDX, which is a pretty decent car i think...
Honda probably should start making more rwd cars other than s2000 and nsx.

yeah i agree the the 7th gen hatch is a flop. In America, Coupe > hatch unless the hatch looks like a coupe. Europe, hatches are popular, so they should leave it in Europe.

the late nintys crv were prone to roll overs that kinda dissapointed me, and the fact that you could see that crappy little axel turning the back wheels.
really didnt like that gen of crv's, the newer ones are a bit better but meh
on another note it would be awesome if honda sold directly to consumers and cut dealerships outta sales
would never happen though

I had an 89 Prelude, bought running mint with 120k, that car was awesome for 2-3 years, sold with 156k still running mint. No problems whatsoever with that car. I learned how to drive manual shift on that car.

Rep Power: 319 Element. Granted it is extremely versitile, water proof interior, K24, many nice features, but give the thing a better body and get ris of the stupid gray plistic on the out side. I know a guy that huals wood in his, loves it, but wishes it had a better looking exterior.
