hi, i drive a 04 accord coupe exl and i love the car. i was excited about the 08 new models. not any more. after looking at both the accord and nissan coupe ,there is no question that the nissan is a much better looking car. i am disappointed that honda did not do a better job looks wise. i will drive the nissan to see if i like the ride. if not i will go out looking for a 07 accord coupe. jim

Wow – it looks like next year’s Hyundai Sonata.

Yeah, I still prefer the ’07 over the ’08 model Accord. And I’m not too impressed that the ’08 is now big enough to be considered a full-sized sedan.

Hondas aren’t exactly known for their cutting edge design….IMO Nissan gives you more for your money in design, and perhaps one of the best V6 engines ever, the VQ6 – Honda is a practical, reliable car, but just oh so boring and safe…..If I were to equate Honda to a personality, it would be Ben Stein – a brilliant bore…

The sedan looks very strange. The front grill looks like a pilot or ridgeline…just sort of out there and doesn’t flow well with the rest of the car. The accord coupe is actually pretty hot! Has some G35 angles to it.

The ’08 doesn’t look that bad. Although, I’m pretty partial to Honda and Toyota. After driving my new ’07 4Runner, it’s going to be hard to go back to driving “regular” car.

Prior to the 4R, I had an ’03 Civic that served me loyally until a 1′ thick tree fell on us—while we were driving. The tree did a number on the roof, but the engine still ran fine. I’ve temporarily got some pictures posted at my domain, until the site goes live.

Front end looks like a scion, the back like a 3 series. Don’t know what to think. The Camry (which I hated at first) has grown on me.

I still love our boring, but slightly classy looking, 2000 Camry. They changed the body style a couple years ago to something more “aggressive”.

Fortunately, it’s a Camry so as long as we keep it clean, it’ll run well and look good for at least another decade.

As for the Accord, the front end looks a lot like the Mitsubishi Tredia I owned just out of college.

I drive a ’93 accord and am hoping against hope that the ’11 diesel models look…well not like they do right now. I love my ’93….

Amber,

Okay, I have to ask: why did you get rid of a 2006 model car? It seems too new to dump.
