I suspect people will say how much better it looks than the Crosstour - but to my eye, its basically the same car except for a slightly higher roofline. If so, evidence for my theory that people hated the looks of the Crosstour more because it was popular to do so rather than anything based on the actual looks of the vehicle.

I love it, though I wouldn't buy it due to the lack of room in the back seats (no good for kids with big car seats). Still, it's relatively compact but still has lots of cargo room, it'll be fuel efficient, and it is extremely well built. It's a great car, to my eye.

I'm glad it's coming because this is just the sort of car we need more of in the US.
However, the tail is dumpy looking and not as nice as the previous Euro Accord wagon butt. Also, once they add the TSX buck tooth to the front that end should also be ugly.
Really, Honda what is your styling department thinking?

If you like the Toyota Venza, then this is Honda's answer. I'd like to see Honda be more bold, and daring on their designs rather than copy or simply compete with Toyota.

This isn't a copy of the Venza. This car has been available in Europe for a long time. If anything, it's a remote competitor to the Venza but it's going to be more expensive and have less room.

The Venza is huge. I drove past one yesterday and was really struck by how large the thing is - in the minivan/SUV range. If the Euro Accord Wagon basically a TSX with a wagonish real end, it'll be significantly smaller than the Venza and not really a direct competitor.
