Third, fourth and fifth are my favorite, especially the fourth. Honda really used to stand for advanced design and engineering. Clean, easily recognizable corporate styling too--functional and unapologetically Japanese like a good 80's Sony cassette deck or alarm clock.
I'd argue they lost their way with the seventh http://tinyurl.com/qcsxdqw
Agreed on the Fourth. A high-water mark for the model.
