I can't stand this high centre of gravity rounded down to the ground look they have gone for in recent years... reminds me of a late 90's Ford Escort... and not in a good way:  |

lol that looks exactly like the 2012 models! I was expecting the difference to be like hyundai tiburon and the Genesis coupe! This won't blast sales IMO. EM1 and EK FTW! why they won't bring over the mugen sedan or the type-r civics is beyond me. N

It's an improvement, if anything.
I have a co-worker that was super happy because Honda called him 2 months ago and offered him an "upgrade" to the 2012 civic and trade in his 2009, on same terms.
I wanted to tell him he's an idiot but he had already signed the papers...lol.

It looks better than the 2012 butt lift, but it doesn't scream out buy me like the veloster, Genesis, and frs. They should have made electric versions and under cut the prices of the leaf, miev, or the volt. I would have got one had there been an electric version at down to earth prices.

i like it
the Avalon styled taillights make it look slightly more upscaled
don't like the futuristic looking wheels though

Looks much better than the current sedan. I wish Honda took the photos at proper angles instead of shooting them from above...
As far as the interior goes, I see very nice Accord-esque leather seats inside.

+1 for rear-ends.
much better than current rear-ends.
imho, cars these days have similarities regards of designing everywhere.
8th gen coupe look-a-lie c class coupe, 9th gen sedan look-a-like genesis' ass, blah blah blah.
Don't wanna complain which car looks more like which car.
it must've took lots of time and effort for designers to come up with newer design when it comes to newer generation of each vehicles or face-lifted ones.
(i mean, that's what they're for).
unless, its ferraris, labos, etc.  | |
