    Now with the CX-70 "revealed", what is everyone buying?

    Bringing this thread back as I noticed this video on the redesigned Honda Passport. Still has the camo in the video but totally can see the shape. I presume this will have the Pilot's naturally aspirated V6 and torque vectoring (like the current gen Passport did), and just as importantly will...

    Absolutely great news. This should be cross posted in all relevant threads.

    Year 2 CX-90 changes?

    This is a point that I find gets missed a lot. You often see people on car forums dismiss driving dynamics in suvs, they'll say Oh who cares no one drives an SUV like a sports car. But who knows what even a marginal difference in handling can make. It can be the difference between this type of...

    CX-90 Retractable Cargo Cover worth it?

    I never thought about it that way, always used mine thinking it was a deterrence. Interesting. One thing I like about them, I use them as a second surface level. So lighter items, like coats, my kids blankets or toys, snacks, etc, I put those on top on trips. Then they don't interfere with the...

    CX-90 Retractable Cargo Cover worth it?

    Damn, never knew that...many a time it sat on my floor in house, for days before I bothered to put it back!

    CX-70 Car and Driver Review

    There have been many of these, with questions and concerns. The conclusions are often still positive, it's after all a great effort what they're trying to do here. But seems like anytime the +/- are mentioned here and on other forums, someone gets their back up. 70/90 owners are becoming a...

    CX-90 Premium Towing Experiences?

    Hmmm. I don't know how it works there. By chance are you more aligned with european limits? I know there the % on the tongue is often lower,although even that wouldn't explain it as that % is applied to a higher tow capacity and thus usually the same or similar lb to usa/can. I guess what I'm...

    CX-90 Premium Towing Experiences?

    The manual does say 10-15% of the trailer weight as a max, i couldn't find any number of lb listed, nevermind 330. Where did your source get the info?

    CX-70 Driving event for reviewers in May

    Straight Pipes (well, half of them) released video too https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VClaqKnml2k I must say, the visual differences do make a difference for me, 70 to 90. The CX70 looks much sharper IMO.

    Now with the CX-70 "revealed", what is everyone buying?

    Ya, i was half asleep when I wrote that so full disclosure now, I own an RS (I may have mentioned that before on here...) I initially did look at the Germans, but at least in Canada, there was a decent bump up in price for an X3 optioned as I'd want. The Q5 was more manageable but I didn't like...

    Now with the CX-70 "revealed", what is everyone buying?

    Maybe a Blazer RS? Less power, but still over 300 HP and cheaper. https://www.motortrend.com/features/2023-chevrolet-blazer-ford-edge-pros-cons-review/

    Now with the CX-70 "revealed", what is everyone buying?

    The new 4 runner has been revealed. While it seems like the polar opposite of the CX70 (and realistically it is), there is a part of me that sees a 4 runner as an option. Reason being both have something to stand out, the Mazda has the big engine and the RWD architecture, the 4 runner has the...

    Now with the CX-70 "revealed", what is everyone buying?

    For sure. I don't even know if they are that fast, it's really just the presence. That era is a good one. A lot of us lived those days staring at 300 zx's, Jaguar XJ6s, and even the affordable ones like the Mazda MX6. Back then cars had style. (Old man yelling at clouds warning...)

    Now with the CX-70 "revealed", what is everyone buying?

    That would be neat to see, someone pulling a 911 out of a trailer behind a Cayenne. Dreams, dreams. Only way to improve it, make it a Singer 911!!!
