Driving it
What's it like to drive?
Visibility is very poor because of the rear spoiler and also when cornering to the right the front pillar creates a blind spot. This could be dangerous for the inexperienced driver or if in the wrong hands.
What's it like to park?
Again rear spoiler affects vision. I am surprised Honda did not pick this up during Research and Development.
