I think Honda should give us:
1 - An ILX with the 2.3T with SHAWD with the slick 6MT.
2 - A 2 seat (or 2+2) convertible that is rear wheel drive that comes in around $35k
3 - A fully capable 5 passenger SUV (not CUV) that slots under MDX. Something more manly and sporty. Thinking, 6MT and can tow 3500 lbs. Kind of like a grown up (matured) Element (Ford Edge kind of)
4 - I'm still shocked that there isn't an Acura minivan. Oddysey has positioned itself way up market (in a bad way)
5 - I too think the Integra and Prelude nameplates should come back. The CL was cool because it was sporty. I have Accord 6MT V6 and it's awesome. But I'd love to see something more upscale. Audi A5 territory.
