    Honda got it's tail thoroughly kicked by the Passat and the new Altima.

    This is it's revenge:

    Sorry GB - I don't really like it... I don't care for the new styling, it is too much. I liked the old Accord better. Nice HP though.

    I would take the Passat for sure over this car and I would probably take the Altima over this car.

    The new Accord looks like a freaking Ford Focus!!! I am not impressed. The back end looks like a Buick. Design and Style was never Honda's forte.........

    The Charlie's Angels girls? Well that is a different story......

    :D

    I think the tail lights look horrendous.


    I like the mid 90s Honda Accord better. Maybe I just have to grow on it.

    I think the tail lights on that Altima look like something off of beaterz.com.

    Initial impression of that new Accord: peh. I didn't and don't like the whatchacallit, "coupe" version that came out a few years ago, with the narrow tail lights.

    These:

    Don't like them. I think the new four-door model looks OK, but nothing special. I think the two-door looks like handmade ****.

    Not so. The tail lights have been something that sets the Altima apart from other bland cars....

    On a side note for you performance freaks, the 2003 Honda Accord does 0-60 in 6.57 seconds... and damn, that's the AUTOMATIC SEDAN!! No telling what the coupe will do. :eek:

    Base price should be about $25k - $26k. Should be out in September....

    Interesting... Motor Trend says it's 240. Either way, the Altima now has some competition... time for Toyota and VW to step up. :D

    Ain't competition grand?!

    The motor on the base Accord is the old Acura Legend motor from the 86-90 years. Honda is just cheap..use old engines. The top of the line Accord..if you are going to buy that..just get a Acura TL or TLS.
