Hmm, I really can't argue. Honda has lately become as bland and lifeless as a company can be without completely dying. The other asian manufacturers are burying Honda!


Put a G35 coupe next to a Tl-s and tell me which one you would want!! I know which one pitches my tent..

Honda has been resting on its laurels a little too much these days.

i dont know, the Acura TSX and the new accord are pretty fresh. Not bland old honda style. Of course the new Mazda 6 is even cooler, but whatever

well what I meant was that Honda is using it's reputation as being reliable and trouble free car a little too much.

My Accord has rattles and squeeks that it shouldn't have considering it is only 2 years old. That is something I expect from a domestic, not an import. Technically it isn't an import as it is built in the US.

I also got a 7 year 100,000km warranty on the transmission as a lot of them have been failing. All CL/TL/Accord/Odessey owners got them.

Odessey's have problems with the automatic doors. Paint issues.

Basically there are a lot more issues than there used to be.

The automatic doors are the stupidest idea ever... I hate them..

Anyways even though toyota has high sales i think they took a dive ever since they dropped the mkiv supra, mr2, gt4 etc...And all they make is now that is decent is a celica and a mrs, which compared to these old powerhouses make them look like cars fit for housewives :(
