Is that the best Honda can do? Ugly and it doesn't look very innovative.

I have to concur, the appearance isn't very good, could have done way better on the looks. Alteration is not a crime, now is it Twisted Evil

Yep, its UGLY! I would have thought Honda would have taken more to the sport market. Maybe there is more models to follow?

I thought that was a bob-cat at first glance!!! Darn... I think the tires are a bit small, and the rest of the thing looks borrowed... What a shame... Hopefully the RZR will encourage some competition in the near future, especially in the wallet!!! lol... Id hate to see the recipt for the cost of this honda...

Confused

They obviously don't have their ear to the ground. Strickly from a statistical perspective, the utility vehicles are selling well, but what is the first thing most people do? Try to make it more of a sport vehicle!! A two seat Pilot/utility hybrid would have been way better. Something that performs like a Pilot, but has nice-eties like a small rack for a cooler, winch, etc. They could have taken some cues from the buggy market. Their new SxS is going to be way out of reach for most by the time you upgrade the suspension, seat harnesses, engine, etc.
