Re: Bra-less Vue.

Wow...it looks a lot like the new CR-V. IMO, perfect for the target market. In terms of my own wallet, I hope the new Liberty for '08 looks every bit as good...

The small SUV and crossover market is getting really, really crammed...

Re: Bra-less Vue.

The fact the current VUE looks so different has NOT been one of its better traits though...the newer front end on the current model is simply awful...

Re: Bra-less Vue.

the best part is the following:

Downstream, Priddy believes that crossover enthusiasts can expect a 3.6-liter Redline model, which should be good for around 300 horsepower.

If that's what were considering good design, I fear for the industry.

Looks worse if you ask me, hard as that is to come by.
