An alert member of the Honda-loving VTEC forums that goes by the pseudonym 'Puttz' captured this CR-V model parked outside a restaurant in Dublin, Ohio, some 20 minutes away from Honda's Marysville plant. The cell phone picture isn't of the best quality and looks blurry in parts, but there's no doubt that there's something subtly different about this CR-V's fascia. And by different we mean the enlarged upper chrome grille that takes up the entire width between the headlights, the modified lower grille and the restyled bumper. According to Puttz, the vehicle also featured a different set of alloy wheels.

Could it be a lightly facelifted version of the current Honda CR-V? Well, fact is that one can never be 100 percent certain with these kind of stories/photos, so unless we hear or see something more substantial we better leave it at that.
