We'll soon be having the word "cockpit" introduced in the motoring industry!
Honda guyz seem not to be willing to stop any short of making that dashboard look like you're steering a 1600cc F-16. It will remain road-bound, whatever they do, so I personally do not approve of tilting that dashboard and isolating the driver from the second pilot!!
In any case, it does seem to have it's charms and I may be one of the first victims even, I cannot say, yet I can say for sure, it's not much of an improvement from the present Gen. 8, with respect to exterior looks, front and back, both.
Regards.
