    Jebus - I was expecting so much more. The front, it's kinda.......ugly.

    This was discussed here recently.

    Agreed that it is a disappointment, why couldn't it have looked like the blue one in the photo?(interior looks great though)

    Good God, what have they done!

    That has got to be one of the worst looking Hondas I've seen.

    The blue is just an artists impression of the red - which I presumed would resemble the Euro Accord.

    So if you want a stylish mid-range saloon it a choice between the Alfa 159, Mazda 6 or bizzarely - the Citroen C5...

    I agree they've made it worse looking. Did they hire the guy from Subaru or something?

    Its the old accord except with what looks like a raised, shorter bonnet (More muscle looking I guess) and an even uglier grill. Personally I think the original of this model ('04 - '06 model) had the nicest grill.
    This one:

    And its a shame that after all the hype of what the new accord would look like it ends up a pretty poor and lazy redesign, IMHO.

    Bit of a disappointment alright. I still want a go on one with the new i-DTEC engine though.
