MY MOM SAID SHE LIKES HOW THE ACCORD CROSSTOUR LOOKS.

I...I don't know how to cope with this. I always thought she had pretty good taste in cars but I'm questioning that now. How can anyone like how this wannabe X6 looks!?

Here's some eye bleach in the form of another car she likes.

I like how it looks. I don't know why people hate it so much. It's a V6 AWD lifted hatchback sort of thing, which is cool. Shame it is not available with a stick.

I'm sorry, but the only thing to do is kill her and burn the body and hope nobody ever finds out the family's dark secret.

Good idea, poor execution

Because it looks like an Accord had an allergic reaction to a bee sting.

You know what else is a V6 AWD lifted hatchback sort of thing? The Pilot, which looks infinitely better than this.

Yes. Why would you want a partial GT?

Same here. I'm not biased or anything, but I don't think it looks that bad.

I don't even see how it's a good idea. It has the same sort of concept as the X6 I think. Which is to say, pointless. It's like a worse Subaru Outback.

This would make a nice pickup truck.

He wants to buy a wrecked GT and rebuild it from the ground up. Crazy, but awesome. If he does it, you and I gotta give him a hand haha

But the pilot is way too big. Subaru XV is the best lifted hatchback, and it is available with a stick. We just need for Subaru to release a WRX version.

My Mom likes them too, but I guess she gets a pass, because of her former list of Jalop approved cars.

- '79 Prelude manual

- '92 Oldsmobile Trofeo

- Cherokee XJ

- Volvo 740 diesel

- Volvo 850 Turbo

...er, I like it. It's a big-ass hatchback. Not offensive, more attractive due to its more "car like" styling than other crossovers.

I can dig it.

 V8 Rustler > TheHondaBro 12/07/2014 at 01:00

I think people just jump on the bandwagon of hating it, just as with the X6.

Ok then, a pickup truck based on the Crosstour, has the same face as the Crosstour, but has a bed in the back rather than an ass.

I'm letting it slip because my mom's never bought anything inherently terrible or beige.

Distract her with other cars. It's how I got my Mom from beige to Jaaag.

It's a bulbous liftback. If it was more wagon-like or more car-like I could dig.

This

or this

Not the awkward 'tweener like it is now.

The 850 was replaced by an '05 Impala, but to be fair the 850 was a lemon that started 45% of the time. The Impala was comfortable(the ride, seats sucked), reliable, and efficient. It did have the starter issue, but it never didn't start. The interior though... That was TERRIBLE. From sitting in the 3rd row facing backwards in the 850 Turbo, to sitting on that uncomfortable bench was hell for a 5th grader. It was the first car I ever drove on the road, so I do have that memory of it. I'm so glad it is gone.

The Crosstour could have been awesome, too:

There's a reason the background on the computer she uses is a CTS-V. Stay away from the beige.

Looks like you've got grounds to have her locked up in a loony bin with a comment like that.

No, I just acquired my dad's taste for large trucks/SUVs and old muscle cars. Mostly of the GM variety.

Send your mom to a Russian gulag work camp...

On a serious note make her aware of all the better alternatives. Which is like %70 of the vehicles currently on the road.

She has a cataract.

Good news is it's an outpatient surgery usually.

Umm. Pretty sure the Pilot is smaller than the Crosstour. Longer at least.
