I hope Honda doesn’t come out with too many exciting color choices like they usually do every year! I wouldn’t be able to handle it!

SRT-4Ken…

because RWD is BETTER.

Don’t worry, it’s not like my hopes were up, honda won’t make a proper sports coupe without making you pay more than 35k. It’s okay though, high school kids need FWD, and so do secretaries.

———–>sampson, why would they even think about makin the Accord rear-wheeldrive, when the 6spd ’05 Accord coupe i drove handles plenty good enough for its power….bottom line is this car is nice, and its gonna be plenty quick, if i dare not say, fast, with that 270hp V6….

The Japanese really aren’t trying as hard as they used to. But forget them: these guys here have made some real improvements on the Hyundai Sonata. And now it’s a coupe! O wait Hyundai. Honda, Hyundai… same thing. OK, not really. But in today’s Acord Coupe case… YES THEY ARE.

looks like a bit of mustang from the side… Too bad it’s not RWD though. Honda missed the mark on that.

Soul-less. Boring. The Japs are always behind. 7th gen Accord? G6 rip off. 7th gen Civic? Cobalt rip off. Ridgeline? The Silverado is the only god-given truck to the world (world=America). Any other trucks with 4 doors is a rip off.

For those who are even thinking about buing this bloated POS, why not head over to your local Pontiac store to check out the red hot G6. Not only are you buying American built product, thus supporting American industry, bnut you are buying the style, quality and performance that you have come to expect from Pontiac.

And with a new Malibu around the corner, the Accord will face some stiff competition which could knock it out of the top 10 spot that it has wrongfully held for years. We all anticipate the long awaited, but equally popular Chevrolet Malibu, coming to your local Chevy dealer for 2009.

No, this car certainly doesn’t look like the Altima. The Altima looks *good*.

Anyone who knows anything about Honda knows they don’t have to steal ideas. The headlamps are actually from the Honda Stream , not sold in the states as of yet & out long before the new Sonata. Secondly, if you go back to several generations of Honda/Acura vehicles the new face is no more than a freshened one from older models with an extended lower front fascia. Anyone who sees Altima or Camry lines in this car probably can’t tell the difference between apples and oranges either.

Ugly this time around, isn’t it? It doesn’t matter. The car is still Frong Wheel Drive and asking over $26k for the V6 model. Does it even come with a manual transmission option for the V6?

the front end reminds me very much of the acura TL, am i the only one?

By: PrimeGTP

PrimeGTP — Thu, 19 Apr 2007 02:18:05 +0000

I can’t help it, my first thought whenever I see this car is “the best thing that could ever happen to the Altima coupe”. Hideous.

By: autonutt

autonutt — Wed, 18 Apr 2007 23:59:46 +0000

The new pics give a (thankfully) clearer view of the front end, which has a much less clunky grille than the concept.. and the lower front fascia is actually nicer looking than the new Infiniti G37s! But that deep, sharp character line sweeping rigidly upward across the side is completely incongruent with the curved lower sill line.

Look at the SECOND picture with the interior shot…..
MAN, they copied BMW and Mercedes for a LARGE center screen on top of the dash. Those really suck.

Hey, I’m all for large screen of info/nav, but come on…. right on top of the dash and similar design of BMW and Mercedes’s interiors???? Honda must be out of ideas!!

“1487 GM sales”, mindless dufus, nowhere does it say in his post that the Cobalt is better than the Accord. He went on about cars that really aren’t comparable besides some range of price. Like someone looking at a MINI will really look at an Accord … and only those as retarded as you would agree that the Cobalt is better than the Accord, you stupid, shit-for-brains loser.

I’ve seen the Hyundai comparisons with the concept’ head lamp eye brows and comparisons of the grille shape to Scion. I saw the concept at the ATL autoshow and it was very cool. This production version maybe too much like the current model.

That car is probably being tested in Indiana because Honda manufactures Accords about a stone’s throw away in Ohio.

Those headlights resemble a Sonata’s a little bit. That’s a strange turn of events. You know, Honda using Hyundia for styling cues. Looks good though.

I’m trying to explain my take on that marketplace. Nothing more nothing less. I was very pleasantly surprised at the mazda for the money. I realize it’s a smaller segment target.

He’s saying the Cobalt is a better car than the Accord numbnuts. I think most people would agree.

The Mazdaspeed3, probably can negotiate about $20-21k price I would hope, is the most fun for the money of the 60 some cars I have test driven recently.

The MINI Cooper is great at handling for $18k-19k.

The Chevy Cobalt SS Supercharged is amazing off the line, but pricey(er) for more the $23k.

The Honda Civic Si is okay for $21k, but you really have to get the revs up high to feel anything and then it’s time to shift. The SS and MS3 would blow it’s doors off, in the meantime. But, I still like the Si.

Sorry to ruin a moment you were having 1487_GM_Sales, but neither of those cars are class leading. The Aura by all means is becoming a one of the hottest selling vehicles in its class, while women have come to love the G6 I don’t believe either has outsold an Accord to date, considering how hideous the current car is. Everyone speculates on a vehicle once it’s spotted but no one has an idea of what the overall prackage will look like until it is finally unveiled. Granted this car is generic but it’s a Honda and by not alienating current or potential buyers they have actually come up with something that will do very well in this particular segment.
