The camouflaged prototype you're looking at the picture above is none other than Honda's forthcoming crossover-liftback thingy, often called "CrossTour". The car was scooped by forum member GoVdubSPEEDGo aka "M. Balinsky" who came upon two prototype models while vacationing in the Great Smoky Mountains. Not to be mistaken for Acura's upcoming ZDX model that follows in the lines of BMW's X6 SAV, the so-called CrossTour appears to be a fastback variation of the U.S. market Honda Accord with a slightly higher but more sloped roofline. 
And yes, the first thing that came to mind upon viewing the photos of the CrossTour was that the new Honda appears to be surprisingly close in philosophy (but far apart in price) to the BMW 5-Series GT. Hopefully next time the Japanese carmaker decides to take an "adventurous" lesson from the Bavarian firm it will be for something more in the likes of the M3 or M5...
