Recommended Posts

I think the new Accords look great! I mean look how nice the coupe looks:

Sorry,

 

Have to disagree with you there.

 

Pictures give no context to how big those cars are, first of all.

 

The thing looks like robocop, or a metal cylon (it can't even dream of being as nice to look at as #6, or #2 or whichever one is boomer, played by grace park). the slot grille, the slot headlights, and the bland lines just aren't very inspiring.

 

It is a technical design, with a couple of softened lines to make it look less robotic than R2-D2, but far from a compelling design that appeals both to technical and more emotional appreciation.

 

The sedan is even worse, the TSX bad in other details.

 

I would hate to see what they would do to the S2000, which is the last honda design of any attractive quality.

Actually the accord coupe looks great in person.

 

The sedan looks decent as well, way better than the TSX

i'd pick this over the current TSX's design any day. this is what it should've been like.

That wagon, the wagon bodystyle not withstanding, IS THE SAME DESIGN as the new TSX

 

The Honda grille is the only thing different.

 

The chunky fender arches, the odd angles and lines, and the underbite front air dam ALL SUCK.

 

and the Accord Coupe is big and dull in person. The sedan moreso to the point of being insipid.

yikes for acura, I never liked lexus cause they looked just like toyotas seems ac/honda going the same direction. I mean cost benifit obviously theres going to be some sharing of parts chassis systems etc but why buy an ac when you can get a honda for cheaper, and why pay acura prices for a honda that doesnt have the acura name....

 

not my thing.. Glad I got my Scoobaru

I agree with the "looks like a Saturn". It's too bad, I used to think Acura made such beautiful cars...At least Honda got it right with the new Accord, IMO.

 

I really like the look of the 04-current TL i hope they dont mangle it
