thanks for any input.

What's the difference? They'll still be as ugly as the current one.

But yeah between September and November.

Oh my. When will the Honda fanboys realize their Civic/Accord is not a sports car?

Never. They think they're all S2000s.

BTW, I doubt 09 will bring many changes. And they are ugly, not as ugly as last gen but still ugly. And the interior material is horrible.

Don't forget front wheel drive..

No. A sports car isn't all about power - a lot of family sedans have more than that.

It's as much about about drivetrain configuration, suspension setup, etc.

Test drove an '08 on the weekend and the salesman said the 2009s will be out in 3 weeks or so.

This one has 133 ft lbs of tq and less hp... I suppose it isn't a sports car by your definition either. :rolleyes:

I do agree though, an Accord does not deserve more than one k in sick.

haha yeah, i wouldn't call an accord SICKKK. I'm just looking for an upgrade before school starts, and i dont mind the styling. Test drove one at two dealerships, both said i dunno "lets get you into a 08 today!". They do have not so bad deals on 08s right now, honda pays 1000 bucks and if you're financing the rate isn't so high 0.9-2.9%. I can wait 3 weeks though.

maybe that was an over exaggeration...all i meant was i think its a big improvement over last gen personally.....i think it has a much more "expensive" look to it if that makes sense

how do all you guys afford such expensive cars while in school :eek: and by expensive I mean expensive for a student, just wanted to say that before I get flamed by saying a honda is expensive.:zzz:
