then even if 2008 accord is available in sept 07 it will not fit your expectation of putting 2 child seat and a adult behind.
Yupe ..... if it has to be a Honda, then the answer is either a Stream of Odyssey - just MHO

I used to think we have a very nice interior design in our CL7's. Definitely beats the previous generation Camry with that ugly looking CD player and Mazda 6's easy to scratch plastics.
......until I sat in my friends new Camry. Interior design has been upgraded and glows very nicely at night. Meters also look nice. They also got dual air-con controls now and some kind of air purifier.
I really think it's time for a New Accord.. starting to feel dated a bit.

The CL7/9 is narrow. The MarkX has a big hump in the center.
The Camry is wide, has a flat floor/seat and rear aircon vents. I think it is possible to sit 2 child seats and still fit 1 adult fairly comfortably. I am hoping the new Accord will also be similar.
I am also looking at something a little more luxurious/executive than the Stream/Odyssey. In my test drives of various vehicles, sedans are in generally quieter and more comfortable than MPV/SUVs. Even while the Lexus RX is very quiet, it is still a bit bumpy over humps. And I still think sedans generally look better, although MPV/SUVs are practical if you need the space/seats. (I am currently driving a Forester)

Does the new Camry has a flat floor at the back like the Civic?
I sat in front and din notice. I only noticed the air con vents at the back.... wish we had those.

Yes it does. (there is a very slight hump) The seat is also like a bench which makes it suitable for child seats and squeezing more people in a row.

Think the 4door looks better than the coupe...
But the front grille looks a bit Cadilac-ish..
I wonder if Kah will put in a taw-kay looking grille instead...like they did for the local camry

Wonder if the bulge on the headlights is going to be on the real car or something to throw spy photos off?
