So Honda looked at all the crossovers and decided to that Porsche's method was the best?!?! It looks like a jacked up Accord with a Maxima rear end. Or maybe it thinks BMW is doing well with the X6 and wants a piece of the pie??

A far cry from the better-looking vehicles from them.







If they sold vehicles like those that would actually appeal, then they wouldn't be experiencing the crappy state they're in right now.

Just my two cents

Oh **** the ugly design has trickled down from Acura to Honda now? This thing is even uglier than the current TL oh my god.

The JDM Odyssey is sex on wheels - for a van at least.

THIS is what they should have brought over:

And here's the Euro version, but almost the same:

The Japanese usually design nice things for themselves and the rest of the world. But when handing a design project over to American Honda.....well, I don't need to go further than that.

American Honda's nerve center is Ohio, the same state that brought you Abercrombie and Hollister...

Everytime I drive a Odyssey, Pilot, Ridgeline, or an Accord EX-L I get reminded of Hollister and the fake+snobby "cool" kids I worked with...

Nothing to be done? Perhaps it's because of Honda's backwards way of thinking. Honda, don't you think you should have posted pictures on Facebook and Twitter of a design concept, first? Perhaps got a feel from the public BEFORE you built this monstrosity? How bad do you look now?
