100 billion% agree. In fact, been talking to several folks about that lately. Even when talking to them/showing them our latest Honda's.... it's just not the same as they were, in both design, manufacturing, and quality standards. They've gotten lax and cheap IMO... like what happened to GM.

Nissan on the other hand, imo, is edgy and state of the art. They're designs scream, plus look at the Leaf beating the Volt out to market, plus their innovations are timely and simple. I mean, look at the SRM on our cars. Simple concept if you think about it.... but yet NO one implemented it on a manual tranny until now. Same thing with the push button start. It was a first on my 2007 Altima... not many manufacturer's had that in the main stream. Now everyone's doing it.

Prop's to Nissan. I just own a couple of Honda's because one I had for over 10 years, the other was out of necessity (minivan.... not getting toyota or Chrysler). But chances are, I won't be getting another Honda... a new one, at least.
