Honda needs some kind of affordable excitement, soon. And the CR-Z isn't going to cut it.
Agreed. I mean what is their main fleet consist of?

3 of the same Luxury Acura cars with same engine (TSX, TL, RL?)

No more RSX means Acura has NO sports car anymore

Honda =NO MORE INTEGRA which means they lost their entry level sports car at least with the RSX there was something available

NO MORE PRELUDE

So what do we have? a 6 year run of the same civic? Which when it came out was stylish and cool, but it has long since run its course. The Civic SI with its issues is hardly the sporty car its predecessors were. The s2000 became overpriced and underpowered so they killed it.

The Insight would NEVER compete with the Prius so i dont even know why they kept it around.

The only car they have done RIGHT IMO has been the FIT. Stylish, practical, good MPG, lots of options, cheap etc.

They need to quit being so conservative and bland and not be afraid to shake things up. They could get away with being bland years ago because they had no competition. but with Hyundai beating down their door, they cant afford to do that anymore.
