I'm looking toward Nissan for the future of Japanese cars. Maybe that's just cuz I have a Silvia. I was actually really impressed with the car when I bought it, despite the age. Lots of neat stuff Honda never did. Like heater vents that blow air on the steering wheel. Variable speed intermittent wipers are cool too.
You know what Honda needs to do? Take a long drive in a CRX. I am absolutely convicned that nodoby has ever built a car that better combines fun, utility, comfort, and economy better than the CRX. Sure plenty of cars can do one or two of those things much better than the old 'Rex, but none all at the same time. All Honda's engineers need to do is remember the inspiration they had to build that car.
