I've got nothing. Hopefully the look grows on me over time, but right now I would not buy it on looks alone. Center exit exhaust is gimmicky.

I'm an accountant and I think I could do a better job with marketing for Honda. Their TV ads are ridiculous too. The pokeman, anime crap with cars flying around doing loops, etc. It's just so childish and stupid. Do they even have a social media presence at all?

The flabby butt look of the back end says "Prius" to me. It must just be a shape that is really aerodynamic because it sure does not look good.
I hated the look of the new Corvette but I think it looks decent now. This car will take way longer to grow on me. Serious hate for the back end.

The Mazda3 should be a little worried. That’s because the new Honda Civic happens to finally be good again, and this morning Honda unveiled what is undoubtedly the best version of it yet: the 2017 Civic Hatchback. It can be had with a turbo. And a manual!
Unlike those other body styles, the Civic Hatchback gets just one engine option, but it’s the good one: the 1.5-liter turbo four putting out 174 horsepower and 162 lb.-ft. of torque; that gets bumped to 180 HP in the Sport and an all-new Sport Touring trim.
It can also be had with Honda’s CVT, which as far as CVTs go is not that terrible, but why do that to yourself when the other option is a six-speed manual? I’m gonna tell you right now to buy that one instead.

how about the curb weight? how about a 2 door? How about sticking the same engine into the Fit? how about taking all that tech and sticking it somewhere dark?
And why, oh why do we care about pedestrian safety and those tall front hoods? is it me or have IQ's dropped sharply?
