So is it basically the same car with Lane Watch added and new styling?

Or will the ride/comfort be affected too?

I ask because if it is the 2012 models may become real bargains in the next month or two.

No updates to the suspension....too bad.

I'm not overly crazy abt some of the interior/exterior styling updates either -- and really, it's just a Mid Model Update.

Paddle shifters and 6spd tranny are a BONUS, and of course the electronics pkg!

however -- I don't think I'm going to be running to swap my lease early like I was THINKING i'd want to.

Unless CT sales pick up, i don't see it being continued much beyond a 5 year production cycle.
Bummer.
i DO love my '12 tho!

I agree, if sales do not pick up say good bye to the CT.

What happens if the CT is discontinued? Seriously considering buying the '13.

The value of your '13 goes up!

Trust me on this...Elements never sold -- now, we can't keep 'em in stock!

It does outsell many other Honda and Acura products.

Like the 6 speed and some of the tech stuff, not so much on the front end styling.

Also, I thought I read that this one has something like 6.2" ground clearance... do we not have 8 inches (on the 4WD anyhow).

Love mine, keeping it till the wheels fall off.

Grille looks better, as do the headlight and taillights. But now the car has a black eye liner like features below the headlights...why Honda, WWHHHYY?

Also the V6 engine can now only run in 3 and 6 cyclinder mode. The 4 cylinder mode of the VCM appears to have been omitted.

Too much ECO "hunting" and surging would be my guess on the disappearance of the 4cyl mode.
I'm aware of a recall that is seen on the VCM v-6's, where the plugs will foul and in some cases blow the IGNition Coils - it is thought to be caused by a VCM timing/tuning issue.
Urgh. Technology has it's price!
