They've always made vehicles that take some getting used to. I don;t think there has been a model that they've come out with that hasn't been blasted for its looks

For ex. the new CR-V, it's the #1 selling SUV right now. The new TSX is selling very well and the Civic was the #1 selling vehicle for June, beating out the F-150 even. I remember buying a 1998 Accord sedan and the salesman telling me I would probably be the only one who liked the re-design. It went on to sell 400k units that year beating the Camry for third place.

Thing about Honda designs is they may look a bit off at first, but they hold up well in the later years.

I like the front end. I don't like the rest of it, it's to rounded. The rear is ugly.

Edit: There is a paddle shifter in this pic



ok, if worst comes to worse, I could live with paddle shifters in the CR-Z.

Paddle shifter in a true sports care though, no way. the day 3-pedals are no longer offered, I'll be laughing my ass off at everybody while I'm driving my vintage CRX-Si and S2000.

It doesn't matter how this looks. Have you guys seen the earlier prototype models for S2000? No where near production form.

Vintage Cobalt SS? Everyone here tells me since it's a Chevy, it'll fall apart within a month.
