I actually think the car overall looks alright.
Front end kind of reminds me of the new Lancer?
Back end = old Acura CL
+1 , if only the accord coupe had Frameless windows![Crying](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/Peace.gif)

Doesn't look too bad. Much better than the current version. I'd drive that over a Solara any day.

The front looks like a Scion tC and Honda Ridgeline had a baby.
I'm assuming the blocky front-end has something to do with European
pedestrian impact standards... does that mean this is a "world" Accord?
Hopefully it looks better in person.

Not only does the sedan rear look better imo but the front will look about the same w/ the coupe grill swapped in. The sedan is the way better buy from a practicality/ aesthetic standpoint. Also I still think these type of cars(moderately-priced midsize FWD) are so much better in I4 form. No(or barely any) torque steer, better mpg and a lot of times more reliable due to less stress on a drivetrain which is not built to withstand too much power.

The front end has grown on me, but that rear I'm sorry to say still looks horrible
.
Interesting info from Vtec.net SICK. Dual chamber airbags eh? So Honda is following Toyota in that regard![Wink](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)
j/k.
I'm interested in hearing official specs. Styling and the interior aside, this should be a very well engineered car.
