The 4cyl. camry has a single exhaust as well. Twins go on the 6's.

The sport or SE version will probably use the mesh style grill that will go on the coupe.. and if not the sedan grill could easily be swapped out for the coupe grill..

Looks like it's going to be an improvement over the current anyway, I think the current accord sedan is possibly the worse looking ever.

Anything and anything could look better than the current Accord. And it seems to attract the worst drivers. sigh........

The front headlight looks like the Camry..... however the bodyline / rear light looks like the Hyundai Sonata..

Strange - I think the current gen Accord is one of the better looking cars on the road. Are you guys saying you prefer the styling of the Camry over it?

The second pic looks like a TL from the side.. I think dual exhasut would look better and yes it sort of looks like a Altima..

It looks so disproportionate. Very incohesive design. The Accord just keeps getting uglier - at least the TSX/TL compensate.

Yuck.

Typical of Honda to build up excitement and SMASH your hopes into the ground!

Yep, by a long shot. Even more so if we are talking the Camry SE vs. the current Accord.

However I prefer the Accord interior.
