Good Points
1. Realable(expect the brake pads) and cheap spare parts.
2. No engine overheat, In summer my countries average heat is 42 C for 3 months, less than this sometimes 45 C, my Honda stream Drive smooth and doesn't overheat the engine.
3. Sport Gear Box, Auto 4 speed, Semi Auto 5 speed 2 in
1 And Very Good performance.
4. Carry out many Passangers(7) in a small compact car.
Bad Points
1. Front seater is not very comfortable for the passanger, driver seat is ok , and there is no place to put your arm on, like civic in the middle
2. my car mileage is 22,000 km Honda dealer in my country has changed the break pads 2 times that's a total loss of 17 B.D each time , mean 32 B.D loss = 100 $ , one on 15,000 km service secand one on 20,000 service and they change the back break discs in the 2nd
3. High Gas usage , 10 liter = 80 k.m only or less
4. The Rear end seaters are for kids only adults well not feel comfortable.

my owen Road tests :

0-160 km : 32 s
Top speed (km): reached 200 km/h
-7 seater , 2 front , 3 mid car , 2 back seats
but in the middel it's not comfrotable to let 3 passangers unless they are kids, and the back seats are not comfortable for adults.
-Also in place of the 5-speed manual and the 4-speed auto, the Stream uses a single transmission, a 5-speed automatic box with a sequential 'Sport Shift' manual facility, a sports car creation.
-ABS Brakes + EBD
-15 inch allow wheels + 15/65/195 tires
