The Accord’s exterior left me confused. Is it sporty? Is it practical? Maybe it’s practically sporty? No, no manufacturer would shoot for that.

I might be wrong here, but didn’t Hondas used to have a “cute” aspect to them? You know, kind of like a Mini Cooper or a VW Beetle? They’re tough little machines with personality to boot, right? You can still see Honda’s cute look in the CRV and Pilot. But where is it in the sedans? I don’t want to offend any loyal Honda fans — I know there are many of you out there. But can someone please explain this identity shift? Do you like it?
