A lot of things that Honda does always appear to not make sense at first.

However, after the public gets their hands on the car opinions always, always change.

It would make sense if this car was AWD, or a Coupe, or RWD etc etc...

But I can guarantee that all of that won't matter. The actual experience, and how much thought was put in by Honda engineers always goes against what is on simply put on paper.
