The new Accord is already in the show room today. Just seen it, no brochure, specs not as good as Thai...
2.4l don't have curtain airbag, 16" rim, no rear fog lamp...
2.0l is $103200
2.4l is $106800
3.5l is $125800

Can catch the car at Ubi Showroom, showcase only the 2.0l...

i'd say go for the one at the alexandra showroom.

and err, i'm not too sure bout the curtain airbags, but the 2.4l comes with 17" rims and rear fog lamps?! which car has those? the 2.4l does come with front fog lamps though.

New Honda Accord to Boost Guangzhou Honda's Sales in 2008

Post by junning » Tue Jan 01, 2008 2:31 am

Hi all, High hopes on new Accord overseas...

Global Insight published 28Dec'07
New Honda Accord to Boost Guangzhou Honda's Sales in 2008

Guangzhou Honda Automobile has raised its 2008 sales forecast by 15% to 340,000 vehicles, on the back of anticipated high demand for the new Accord. The new Accord will account for 178,000 of those sales, with 42,000 Odyssey multi-purpose vehicles (MPVs), and 60,000 Fits and 60,000 City cars also being targeted.

Significance: China has been one of Honda's most impressive growth markets in 2007, with the company predicting further gains in 2008. However, Global Insight finds annual Chinese sales of 180,000 units for the Accord rather optimistic, forecasting a more moderate output of just over 140,000 units of the model in China next year. Toyota has recently overtaken Honda as the number-one Japanese brand in China, and the new Accord is seen as crucial in Honda's bid to steal the top spot back from its Japanese rival.

Will be darn surprised if Honda overtakes Toyota with this "Accord". Come on Takeo Fukui ... give us the REAL Accord. The world doesn't need another Camry.

2008 Should be a Happy New Year for Honda and Acura

2009 Acura TSX
We've seen some heavily disguised prototypes of the '09 TSX in a number of spy shots, but we don't know a whole lot more about this car than whatever's already been published here. Yet. That will change fairly soon, and the world will know the full details before the end of the 1st quarter (and ahead of the New York Auto Show). We've heard that the 2nd generation TSX will not disappoint current TSX fans, and it sounds like at least the base version will follow a very similar basic formula (FF, 4-cyl), but the rumored up-spec variant has yet to be confirmed.
