Not sure if this picture is genuine or not, but this new Accord Coupe looks nice.

Mmm it has that Pinifarina look that Peugeot gave the 405 coupe some time ago, not bad :wow:

Nice! - looks like a bit of C-class creeping in there too

[Steve]

looks a bit photoshopped

i can certainly see C class

[Claire G]

Definitely a Mercedes bent but looks good.

[Mitch]

nice!! it looks like styling tips were taken from the Merc CL though (what a car)!!!

[bigsul]

It is certainly nice, whatever it is.

I know from my old Accord Type R that Honda, interior, quality is a bit shabby though. However a dealer told me that they are raising the standard, starting with the new Accord. Trying to challenge Lexus, BMW, Merc etc.

One day, you never know !!

cheers ....... bs :P

Looks like a cougar that's been Volvo-ed to me.

[trevorx]

I can see some volvo / astra coupe.

[rob200]

looks a bit odd from other angles though...

New Accord Pics

These look very geared to the US market - do you think we'd see these over here? Or do you think we'll get a European version?

I like Hondas and test drove Accord 2.3 Type V before I looked at Lexus. A nice drive but the interior and lack of gadgets was disappointing.

I'm afraid I must state that the build quality of the UK built Hondas is still not upto the Japanese built Hondas.

The Accord was built at Swindon, hence fit and finish not as good as it should be.

The 5 door Civics (old shape) and all new Civics are also Swindon built.

I am happy to say all my Hondas were built in Japan!

I've only had two Honda's, my last one being the current generation Accord Coupe. However, the interior of the couple was fantastic, well designed, strong and very high quality materials. However, I recognise that some other Honda's particularly Civic's are a bit too plasticy inside.

And ...... yep - you guessed it.... the accord coupe was made in Japan!!! :eyes:

I agree with you. I've owned 4 Hondas (an Accord 2.3iSR, Accord 2.2VTEC, Prelude and my wife now got a CR-V) - the Japan built Prelude's build quality was loads better than the Swindon built Accords'.

No, the current (although no longer available in the UK) coupe was built at Honda's Ohio plant in the USA.
