Just last week we reported on Honda's upcoming Accord-based Crossover and now thanks to VWVortex member GoVdubSPEEDGo, we have these amateur spy photos of the vehicle taken in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.

In the beginning, there were the incredible days of cheap gas and even cheaper insurance. Boy, those were the days weren’t they? The fuel crisis of the late 70’s flipped our world upside down. Gas guzzlers were heading for the crusher in record numbers, and the newly emerging import market was on the horizon. In the early days, Hondas were roaming the streets in limited numbers with even more limits in style. The first Hondas widely sold in the US were quirky and strange, but they got nearly 50 mpg giving them a slight edge in the US market. Thus, the economical import car market was born, and Honda would be forever known as the weird little car that saved you some cash at the pump and lasts forever.
