Ugly.

Controversial designs are okay in moderation...doing that much change to the Accord is going to turn a lot of people off, I think.

***Izzy*** · 10-25-2006, 04:12 PM

Generally, I love it...but, also generally, the American Public on a whole won't like it.

***Jaranath*** · 10-25-2006, 04:19 PM

...why is this an indicator of the '08 Accord, again? By the text, this is a concept car with vague implications of a crossover vehicle coming down the road.

**GeezerSi** · 10-25-2006, 04:19 PM

Did you notice the engine size they want to use in it? I wonder if they'll S/C or T/C it. Hmmm.

***Jaranath*** · 10-25-2006, 04:24 PM

Oh, I see...it also said "possible new direction for Honda styling." Well...actually, how much there is new? The front end reminds me of a lot of Acuras, the fenders over the wheels look a lot like the Civic coupe's, also Civic-ish for...whatever you call the sheetmetal along the bottom of the windowline. Of course it wouldn't have the headlights, and the Accord won't have a funky crossover shape.

***AbsoluteGG*** · 10-25-2006, 04:26 PM

its a concept but more of an acura tsx aka euro honda accord protype

A secret source from the plant in Marysvillle, OH? Heh, I actually bought my civic from Honda Marysville, right next to the plant.

Nice car, lovin' the headlights.

Just from that one glance I like it a lot. Kinda reminds me of the new camry tho, either way it's a lot less boring than the current accords.

**ethlar** · 10-25-2006, 05:21 PM

everyone keeps posting these pictures all over the internet claiming its the next gen accord, or next gen TL, or some new vehicle from Honda. I saw a video a little while ago of that car, its got the SH-AWD system like the RDX and RL which is pretty cool, but no definative word as to what model its going to be or if its even going to production.

Thre more I see them, the new Honda direction with the lights look pretty cool. Kinda like Wolverine's mask.

Civic4u · 10-25-2006, 06:10 PM

The front kinder look like the camry. The roof look kinder funny, so as the interior dashboard. The roof kinder remind me the Tran AM from the movie, Smokey and the Bandit. :rolleyes:

Civic4u · 10-25-2006, 06:11 PM

Oooh! From the above picture, it does look better now

***Janizary*** · 10-25-2006, 07:35 PM

Looks like a civic sedan with a weight management issue.

**Tim** · 10-25-2006, 07:43 PM

Wasn't that the FCX concept vehicle?

From what I've gathered, the next gen Accord will generally look like the 8th gen Civics only larger.
