I really honestly don't understand the appeal of something like this over an SUV. What's the upside? And don't try to tell me this is "fun" to drive.
It would easily fit my family and my dog. But, you know, I'd feel really bad if I was going out with friends and they had to sit in the back.

I'm actually really glad Honda is making it. I'm not going to buy one. But I'm glad they make it.

This more service centered than sales, but worth a look:

The front is weird, but I'd pick this over the Mazda6 for this category. My eye doctor raves about his '13 manual Sport and even said he did a track event with it and was usable for that.

I'm still eyeing the 17+ Civic Sport hatch, but I'm finding there are very few manuals for those too.

I can’t believe McHugh campaigned in that Accord this year.

Maybe you should get in line for Danny’s Type R and see how that plays out?
