The new accord and coupe look pretty good.. Lots of similarities from other cars like G sedan, civic, and TL.. Looking forward to a review on this

still think the chrome on the grill part is too overdone.

Maybe I'll give it another chance in person.

Dont forget the chrome on the grill can EASILY be painted or swapped out for aftermarket non chrome trim.

Is it just me or does it look like an RL in this pic?



Overall i like the redesign for both the coupe and sedan. The sedan tailights could have been better though

It does look like an RL, which should be an alarm to Acura to make their current RL look more upscale!

I don't dislike the whole flat tray top on the rear bumper at all. It's been ugly ever since.

The Accord Coupe and Solara have totally different taillights which is the major distinction on the back of any car. The only resemblance is that they both have the lip spoiler and the sloping of the trunk lid beneath the spoiler.

I agree.......except for the bright red color, there is little resemblance between these two cars.
