Of my family's 1998 Acura 1.6el? It's a Canadian market-only car, and it differs from the Honda Civic in.....well.....ways, I suppose.

(it looks like this)

BmanUltima's car still hasn't been fixed yet, he'll get on it tomorrow, honest. > Thunderface

The answer for Oppo Reviews shall always be yes.

It's Acura's Cimarron, minus the shittiness of the Cimarron.

No, the 2nd gen EL is the Cimarron. Acura was just plain lazy. At least on the first generation, Acura used the Honda Domani for styling, rather than just slapping an Acura badge on a civic and calling it a day.

Yes, please! I'm always interested in cars we don't get here in the States.

Like this Chevy Optra I parked next to in New Brunswick. I thought it looked familiar. Upon further research, I found it's the same car as the Lacetti, which Top Gear used as their Reasonably Priced Car for a while.

One of the most surreal things I've ever seen was on a street in Nassau, Bahamas. Parked on the street there was a mid-90s Chevy Cavalier. Just up the street, was a Toyota Cavalier. Same body style, right hand drive, amber turn signals. Unfortunately I didn't have a camera with me.

I don't think so, but I don't really keep up with the billions of SUVs that all look the same to see what's "new."

I think it's mainly Korean, but they sell it here too

Yep, yet another rebadged Daewoo, I'll bet.

Wikipedia ways it was Developed by GM Korea, and that....

GM originally intended that the Orlando would go into production in the United States, [5] however, in May 2010, GM reversed their decision. [6] The Chevrolet Orlando sold in Canada starting in 2011 for the 2012 model year. [7] This crossover is now being produced at the Kunsan Assembly Plant in South Korea. Orlando has been sold also in Europe since 2011.

I thought GM Korea = Daewoo. Anyway, that explains that!
