Default Honda Stream Minivan/MPV spotted in Santa Monica, California, USA

From Temple of VTEC:





Right Hand Drive unit.

The presence of the Blue and Green stickers are offered in vehicles from Japan so you know where it comes from.




Also, judging from the kind of green sticker it has, it appears to be a 4WD version of the RSZ top-of-the-line variant with the R20 engine (2-liter).

i hope you guys can read the green sticker...燃費基準+20%達成車doesnt mean it has a AWD at all. just says it meets and exceeds the Japanese government fuel efficiency standards by 20%.

and could be just an advertisement shoot too.

PS: pics are broken

No, that isn't what the green sticker says.

It means "when VTEC kicks in, it makes you 20% more exciting to drive"

And I cant see the pictures.

I was expecting to see NOS, APC, AEM, RS Akimoto, and Nitto stickers. Those stickers look more at home on a Prius or an Insight...

Oh and I was thinking it was 4WD because you only get the 22-year vehicle tax exemption + "20%" if your Honda Stream is a 2WD model.

For 4WD RSZ variant, you only get the 22-year exemption from the Green Tax.
