I know that usually that type of camo does a great job of disguising contours but with the sun at an angle you can see so much.
All they key creases (front fender, hood, doors) look exactly like the concept.
LED headlights are shining right through the camo
Air inlet in front bumper seems lower
Grill looks same
Rear bumper may have lost the exhaust outlets?

Not a fan of this type of styling, even the headlight.. but for Honda sake I hope they sell a billion of it.

Yeah, but you still couldn't manually sight for a missile launch. :-)

The Royal Navy used to do that with frigates in WWI because it made it difficult to sight in for a torpedo.

What I find ridiculous is that your last five posts were all meant to demean the person you responded to. Congratulations - you've become that guy, the jerk who has to put others down so he can falsely feel better about himself. Thanks for your contributions to the site!!! J/A!
