Default 2003 Accord?

Has anyone seen pictures of the redesign of the "03 Accord?
I've heard it looks like a 300M.

I'm really anxious to see anything on the new Accord. It's a huge debut for Honda every single time!

I hope they continue a Coupe version. . .

I'd also like to see Honda introduce a flagship. Toyota has their Avalon and then a Camry. Nissan has their Maxima and then an Altima.

I agree with you Airgate. As for the coupe, I heard it will continue.. and be even sportier! Since it is supposed to replace the Accord Coupe and the Prelude. One rumor, which I hope is NOT true, is that it will get a larger engine, most likely 3.2 liter V6, but won't match the 240 HP output of the Altima, so it may be the base engine from the TL, which makes 225 HP.... It's nice... but I'd like some more!!

I have pics of some beta accords... I will check and see if I can post them without getting in trouble. Also, my birdie tells me that the accord may be offered with a 260hp powerplant.

Post those pics!! I'd love to see them. 260 HP sounds unlikely, as that may hurt Acura sales... but it would be great if they just went ahead and did it, as long as they hook it up to the 6 speed. I'd love a Accord EXV6, 260 Hp, 6 speed manual, heated seats, nav system, HID's... so basically, a TL Type S with a 6 speed.

The new sketches in Motor Trend look nice... they say the Accord may be headed a little more upscale, with a much richer interior. It'll get a new version of the CR-V's 2.4L i-VTEC engine. Motor Trend says the 3.0L 200HP V6 carries over, I hope they're wrong about that.

That actually looks pretty slick.

Why are all the front lights on most of the cars these days angling up? Kinda....blech.
