I remember that the first time I saw the Honda Stream at a dealer (way back in 2002) I assumed it was just a station wagon version of the Civic.
The Stream was generally not that well received in Britain by car journalists. General Motors and a few other European models were felt to be superior.
Personally, having sat in both the Stream and the FR-V, I would pick the FR-V any day. That car just feels so "right" so sit it. Everything just feels good in there... good enough that you start to even like the outside!
