I like it!

Love how they hid the rear doors!

And herewith the press images:

Deek.

It's just a concept, it will NEVER be released, all these wacky mould-breaking designs get nowhere. We are stuck with generic bubbles i'm afraid. Look at the yaris, the new swift, the new colt, the new fiesta... they all look fairly similar and character-less.

Give me an old Swift GTI, Golf mk 1/2, Polo mk 1,2,3, Mini, Escort Mk1.. any retro powerhouse

I like the concept but it won't get anywhere, they never do.

Yes but these are the press images released by Honda of the final design though aren't they? The concept shots have already done the rounds. See it on a road near you in 12 months?

wow..... thats a bit strikingly ugly..... but far out at the same time (looking at the magazine shots)

however there's no way it'll come with that interior. honda have been touting cars with a variation on that dash & trim for about the last twenty years --- either I, or my dad (depending if he took it with him!) have an old "Dream Cars" book of neat concepts & modifieds, with the pictures proving such. Darling, that giant digilogue tacho is just SO 1986!

(it also had a mk1 golf cabrio with a V8 in place of the rear seats, and hydraulics that lifted the back of the shell off the modified subframe chassis to show it off to whomever you just beat away from the lights )

This is the real car. I agree that it's strikingly close to the orange concept on the top of this thread (although the panel gaps around the rear door appear larger), but these images are the final product. That includes the interior which, quite frankly, is unlike anything that's already out there in any segment.

Deek.

i think its an ugly thing

Yep, been recieving the emails as the car progressed for a little while. Keeping up to date as such! I LOVE IT

Oh and...

I noticed this. But it's not Hondas idea - Alfas have done that rear-handle hide for quite a while.

It looks like the Americans are getting a stunning coupe version of the new civic.

Have a look here:

and tell me that it's not georgeous.

Mind you , I also think that the Scion tC's a beautiful little coupe. It's a shame that Toyota never brought it over here...

Deek.

Yeah we just get the Kia Picanto... "The thinking persons small car"
