So I work for honda, we got the new 08 Accords in today...

[phoenix6]

I was the first one to do the PDI (pre delivery inspection) and test drive it... everyone was all over it and wanting to sit inside blah blah...

We only got the 4 cyls today, the EX-Ls come with 190hp, not bad. I LOVE the dash controls, VERY driver oriented...

The steering wheel is smaller, its more personal. The gauges got an overhaul as well. The car was lowered and comes with a factory strut tower bar now. They handle much better and have a nicer kick.

I know I know its a honda, but I work for them and some people have been waiting to see these.

Heres some pics.

That's pretty sharp looking!!!


PS- I see you still have the pink car that IJ put in your sig.

 

[Entropy]

I love the way they made the new ones look.

 

[johnathan1]

Haha, nice car, but looks like they copied BMW with that center console...

 

[WeDgE]

Good lord, that front end is hideous...

 

[steven89]

looks pretty good.. Is it just me that thinks the front end kinda looks like the honda ridgeline and volvo s60 front end mixed together?

 

[Mk3Jesse]

are you guys going to get the 2 doors in? im curious about those.

 

[SupraDerk]

Wow, the Accord body style changed AGAIN?? Didn't see that one coming...



Heh, it kind of looks like a Camry

edit:

Truuf!

It looks pretty nice, but I think the 07's had a much nicer look. The 08's are probably a better car, but exterior styling goes to the 07 for me.

 

[ERA]

Eh, I'm not feeling it.
Front end reminds me of a whole bunch of cars put together with a mix of ugly.

The back looks sort of cool though.

IIRC honda retools their cars every 3 years.

OP:
looks nice, whats the MPG ratings?

 

[johnathan1]

Yep, the poor thing's been beaten with an ugly stick.

 

[GotToyota?]

No VTAK no care.

[thechori]

front looks kinda like they bred a scion tc with one of those cadillac cts things, lol it's alright, i'm sure it'll grow on me as the new civics did

 

[mkIIIman089]

Looks OK, the truck grille I could live without.

 

[Tanya]

Geez. Damn new cars getting uglier and uglier. Bigger, bulkier and more obnoxious FTMFL

 

[Wills7MGTE]

Camry's a much better car, HONDA FTL!!!!!!
