Thanks for your minority opinion. Viewers vote with their remote and they are not watching any auto racing as much as NASCAR. So what don't you get?

Contrary to your raving, someone can drive a Honda, and watch NASCAR. I don't watch it for the cars, I watch it for the racing. Tony Stewart and Juan Pablo Montoya do get it, that's why they are both in NASCAR now (with many more F1 and Indy car drivers to follow). Now, bring on the specs for the new Accord!

While I can't bring myself to watch any kind of car racing (way too boring) I will say that they all require skill.
Not much longer - how about some early leaks. I am really curious about the weight and interior space. If the Accord is 106 cubic ft and the Civic is 91, then that is a huge gap. They really need to bump the civic up to about 97 and have the Fit take the Civics place. Or they could introduce something in between.

I was thinking about that. Perhaps Honda considers it a niche market, and also wanted to give Accord an advantage over CR-V which is about what a midsize car could be (space wise), as well as put Nissan and Toyota in a dilemma, offering more space than both, while they are boxed out with larger sedans themselves (Maxima and Avalon).
And the small-ish midsize niche might be served by next TSX.

I think the weight is + 150.

The website has been down since Sunday morning. Looks like something is cooking...

You are welcome, but wrong again.....maybe 10 million viewers are watching a NASCAR race in the US and maybe Canada, but hundreds of millions are watching an F1 race worldwide. So, what don't I get?

You're right, and you're raving about it too. I drive a Honda and watch NASCAR too, although not as a first choice anymore. Golf has proven to have more excitement. When drivers aren't good enough for F1 or IndyCar, they move on to NASCAR, so you're right about that too. Now, bring on the specs for the new Accord!

Yep, but I think we have a pretty good idea of the specs already. I'm more interested in pictures.
