I checked out the link and I am not sure if I am impressed or not. As a
former CRX owner and present Midget/Sprite owner, I am always on the
look out for new convertible cars. The idea of a rear wheel drive Honda
makes my hands sweat with anticipation. But the car somehow misses the
mark styling wise. I guess it is those Prelude styled headlights that I
think ruined the 'Ludes looks that does it. I reserve the right to hold
judgement until I see one in the showroom, but don't think I will run
out and put down any deposit money.
