Honda's future probably remains in selling green self-satisfaction to self-infatuation junkies; sports cars are so last century dear.

I think a balloon full of hot air sums it all up quite nicely.

Honda desperately clinging onto a sporting past that no longer exists.

Honda as a sporting brand is finished.

Green all the way, and the latest Insight is hardly ground breaking. Not very good looking either (why can't they create a good looking green car???).

Sales-wise, every iconic Honda has been disappointing - that's why.

The CR-Z might be groundbreaking, but I cannot quite get a hybrid CRX and the engineers would love to do a proper version of it, but aren't allowed.

The next spurty Honda will be an Acura-badged X6 rival, which makes as much sense to me as an AEC Routemaster GTi
