coty061885 Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 Nah, that's just a Hyundai Sonata. Wait a sec...yep, that is a Honda badge. Strange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radio Flyer1647545514 Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 Looks a little bit like a new eclipse, just not so bubbly and curvy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
88lx5oh Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 they have been running it over at MAP for a while now. nice looking cars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodRed Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 One of my co-workers wifes got to take one home for a night. She brought it by my work place to show off to everyone. I think it looks very similar to the new Camarys. One of the dumb things I noticed is there is no way to replace the headlight bulbs. It looks like you would have to take out the whole headlight assembly to get to the back of there. And of course, that would be a dealership only job.

PeteS40 Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 ugly as a four door, but the two door looks promising. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinner Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 Looks like someone took a big healthy shit, slapped a honda badge on it and said here you go its a new Accord. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87GT Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 It does look like other cars but most 2008's this year look like each other. At least engine wise they adjusted the VTEC to kick on in lower RPMs for more torque. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest earleys94gt Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 "I think it looks very similar to the new Camarys." +1, very Camary/Lexus like. Then again, if the design ain't broke don't fix it...tweak it lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffmeden Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 Thumbs down for the larger V6... who buys a Honda wanting a torque monster? I would only check out the 4 cyl version, with gas prices are on the rise again. IMO the 3.0L was the ideal balance between economy and power, that 3.5L is probably lucky to get 25MPG.

coty061885 Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 I actually saw one of these cars the other day at the corner of Houk Rd. and St Rt 36 in Delaware. It had the front emblem blacked out, among other things. The very first thing I thought when I saw it was that it was a Hyundai or some Korean automaker's new Accord competitor. It's strange that Honda is fighting back by designing a car that looks just like a Korean competitor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

solorange Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 It looks like they borrowed some features from the 6th gen camry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hot_wire Posted August 26, 2007 Report Share Posted August 26, 2007 I saw a silver one of these last night, and I must say that, in person, the new Accord looks ALOT better than in the pictures. The coupe is fairly sporty for a large, Japanese, commuter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shields1181 Posted August 29, 2007 Report Share Posted August 29, 2007 The 2 door does look a hell of alot better than the 4 door for sure. So far these things have been easy as hell to build. At least in my area they are. I like them but I guess I kinda have to being they are my bread/butter right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Posted August 29, 2007 Report Share Posted August 29, 2007 It looks like a ridgeline smashed into a camry, and a new passat was an unfortunate participant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
