If I didn't see the H on steering wheel, I would think it is a Bimmer. Where did Honda originality go?

I'll take Bimmer design for Honda money anyday. Reminds me a lot of our old 530xi which we could not afford in India but the Honda is a possibility at Rs. 16L.

I'm not sure whether its an Acura or Accord - but it sure is fancy... The front end rocks..

I used to love the the current Accord but after seeing pics of the 08 Accord I already find it old and dont want it as much as I used to.

funny eh?

The Accord has been officialy unvieled by Honda. Autoblog has the skinny. Looks good on paper - 3.5L vtec will make 273 hp and 250ft-lb torque. I assume a september launch for the US and going by past patterns - 6 months later in India? (Pretty Please Honda)

Vcash tere muh mein Ghee Shakkar!!! If they get it here after 6 months & the V6 too! And while I'm wishing for the impossible, can we have the MT too in the V6 please?

smart. but i can bet honda could have done better than that.

revved_up · 21st August 2007, 19:58

IMO the current Accord is better looking atleast externally ..
Is Honda doing to Accord wat Maruti did to ZEN

Vid6639 · 21st August 2007, 20:16

Compared to the radical shape of the 2003 accord which was a trendsetter this looks pretty plain.

And the interiors I would say they look almost Civicish. Have a look at teh dashboard curves on the left and right and the corner ac vents and the glove box.

tsk1979 · 21st August 2007, 23:46

So after a Hyundai a Soccord... Honda does a Acconata?

Hey, whats up with the A-pillars? Won't that affect visibility, just like the SX4.
