Well, not yet anyway. But you do have to become a “fan” before you’re even allowed to see the official ZDX page. Does this mean crossover weirdness is acceptable from a luxury brand? Or is there something we’re missing that makes the ZDX appealing but the Accord Crosstour a sin against nature?

I'm surprised I'm in the minority, but I think the ZDX is much uglier than the Crosstour. The Honda is just a bad mash of a blocky truck front end mixed with the rear of a Panamera. The ZDX on the other hand is hideous from all angles. It's atrocious. It looks like it should transform into some kind of fighting robot.
Perhaps Honda is just using operatives to plant positives (having learned from crosstour) with hope that the power of the crowd prevails favorably.
@Atomicblue I agree with your wife. These things aren't "crossovers". A crossover is something that looks from the side and back like a Nissan Murano. These are fastback sedans. They have been around since long before the marketing people came up with this stupid designation crossover. Hello Citroen DS, anybody? Chevy Citation? @Psarhjinian Agreed with the need for RSX replacement yesterday--well sort of. I think what really needs replacing is the Integra. The day before yesterday.
The front end ruins the entire thing. I'd rather be seen in an Accord Crosstour.
