Just spotted an unfamiliar look, could this be the upcoming new lineup of honda accord? :rock:

sa singapore ba yan? ang last na pagkakaalam ko eh grey market sa kanila yang Euro Accord (According to Autocar ASEAN)
Hope to see one here, kahit yung Acura counterpart man lang.
If I didn't do a double-take, I would've thought it was an Acura TL, especially the front.
yeah, sa singapore to... size is almost similar to our current model
now i get it, this same design is also currently used in japan.
don't know why it's called euro if it is also intended for use in japan![]()
Look again, it uses a conventional wiper layout like our Accord and many other cars because it doesn't have the huge MPV-like winshelid that the new Civic has.Originally Posted by isketi
The JDM Accord/Accord-Euro was launched in 2003(Acura version was launched in 2004).
Its platform is close to the USDM/ASEAN Accord but a bit smaller.
In the US its sold as the Acura TSX(2004 model shown).

This is also the Accord sold in Japan.

bakit parang mas maganda yang accord na yan kesa yung mga nandito sa Pinas. Dito ko ngayon sa Kuwait, maganda din ang Accord dito eh... iba kesa dyan.. tatakot lang ako magkukuha ng picture dito dahil baka mahigpit sila... pero daming magagandang cars dito.
In general the RP(ASEAN) mid-size sedan market prefers slightly larger more luxurious cars(Executive sedans) this is why Honda based the ASEAN Accord on the larger "family car" oriented USDM Accord, of course the ASEAN version was given a more luxurious look.Originally Posted by wrcastro_ph
The younger crowd prefers the smaller sportier Accord-Euro.

Yup, that was mentioned above(there's a photo of a blue 2004 Acura TSX).Originally Posted by ssaloon
Here's the facelifted 2006 Acura TSX

gaya ng sabi sa taas, it's the euro accord, sold as Acura TSX in the US. looks good and maganda interior, pero 4banger lang, medyo underpowered compared to V6 accords.
The USDM Acura TSX is only offered with a 205hp (K24A2) 2.4 liter i-VTEC engine, but this is not the most powerful version of the smaller "JDM Accord/Accord-Euro". Performance of the Acura TSX is not that bad because its a bit lighter and a more agile than the USDM/ASEAN Accord V6.Originally Posted by G3NIU5
0-100 km/h acceleration takes around 7.3 sec(6-speed M/T), top speed is 215 km/h.
The most powerful variant of the smaller "JDM Accord/Accord-Euro" is the Euro-R, it may not have a V6 but instead its offered with a lighter high output K20A DOHC 2.0 liter engine producing 217hp(220PS), not bad considering that this car only weighs 1390 kg, our 240hp Accord V6 has a curb weight of 1545kg!

0-100km/h in under 7 sec.

Acura TSX...buti pa sa ibang bansa Honda Accord yan, sa US kung gusto mong ganyang style it's the Acura you pay premium price...too expensive.
On the brighter side, our Accord is sold as a premium sedan in Japan.Originally Posted by medyas
Its positioned above the JDM Accord(aka Accord-Euro) and below the Legend(Acura RL).

sa australia, offered both Accord and Accord Euro, though only the Accord gets the choice of either 2.4L 4-cyl or the 3.0L V6 engines. the Euro gets only the 2.4L 4-cyl. pero mas mahal ang Accord Euro kesa sa Accord.

Thats because the large Accord sedan they get is the Thai built ASEAN version. The Accord-Euro is from Japan, its more expensive to import I guess.Originally Posted by KoKoNAT
Same with us, if they send us the Japanese Accord(Accord-Euro) it will also cost more than the equivalent ASEAN Accord we are getting now.

Honga. My eyes are failing me.Originally Posted by AG4
By the way, will the butt-lifted Accord still make it here?
