It is a concept, but I like it way more than recent Honda designs. It is striking for sure and even that chrome grill seems to fit right in place.
That's hot! Wow. Never saw that coming.
Who died in their design department and where did they get a new designer from?

Doug? I don't get it.
Are you being sarcastic? Looks just like the current one that melted a touch, but was put back in the freezer before liquidification...

i give up... i go to put my top down today after work... and the damn window (drivers side) drops. i mean like a stone. going to take off the inner door panel tomorrow during lunch and see/hope its was just a loose bolt and not the cable
I've always been wary about the large difference in force needed to shut the door when the top is up or down due to air pressure. I barely nudge my door to shut it when top down and it closes with a gentle thunk. I think applying the same force when top down as top up would really jolt the internals.

Not claiming this is the cause of your window problem, just saying I'm mindful of how I shut my doors. Because I'm weird I guess.

i never slam my doors.. and if someone slams my passenger door.. i yell at them. I blame baltimore streets.

Shop around. Had the same thing happen on my wife's Solara. Was told I had to buy the whole assembly for $350. Found a Toyota dealer on line that would sell just the cable assembly for $75.

No, I really like it, and it's not like the existing boaring design, this thing has a ton of cool details
