Nothing negative except for the styling, imagine that.

Many of the comments under the article are funny.

The article is fair. SH-AWD wins another reporters heart.

Honda has taken some due criticism for the styling of its cars, and this thing has a face that only its mother could really love. But luckily, you can't see the outside while driving the car, and driving it is where the real pleasure is.
About the consensus of everyone.

Good props for the RL

Fuel Economy: (EPA/AW) 18/18.7 mpg
Where did they get that figure? Mixed MPG I suppose.

No, the CMBS and the ACC also are expensive options that detract from the cars functionality.
