Or I could just look at the actual car?

I was expecting a 60's towerblock. But Honda have given us the Guggenheim. Look at this Honda badge in a perspex trophy cabinet, it's very Flash Gordon. The backend also looks like it's come from outerspace, and the door handles look like the rockets that will take you there. This Civic does something a Golf, Astra or Focus can't do. Let me put it this way: the space shuttle only does a job and it's white, but you'd never call it a whitegood.

- Review of 2006 Honda Civic

I like the styling of the
2015 Civic Type R a lot too, it's based on a facelifted version of the 2006 Civic. I think it looks better than the 2018 model Civic Type R (which is still futuristic, but in a more subtle way than previous versions).
Civic,
Insight, Clarity, the long forgotten CR-Z (both the CR-Z and Insight being hybrid cars with manual transmission, which was very unusual for the time and still is) -- all kinds of futuristic styled Honda cars. Not to mention Toyota's CH-R and Prius, and Nissan's famous Juke.
