no replys?? no opinions?? i for one wish nissan would go out and design something that could deliver that type of hp, and just imagine the amount of torque from the rear electric motor. That torque would be available at idle, damnnn!!!

Well, I can't comment on the drivetrain but that Accord certainly looks like a Mazda 6 on steroids.

It definitly look MEAN, which is nice. But if it stays on it "Front Wheel" Drive setup, I don't think its going to match M3 or S4. In terms of handling.

FYI, that particular model of the Accord is being sold here as the Acura TSX.

well it's about time Honda did something worthy of being called fast...

As an ex-Accord owner I'm happy actually. I love my max but I'm glad that we'll have someone to fool around with later that's gonna have better gas mileage than us and has a big "H" in the back

Oh and btw, I love the way it looks...especially in that color

"The result would be a car with a 200bhp-plus VTEC petrol engine powering the front wheels, and electric hub motors driving the rears. It would have four-wheel drive and offer performance on a par with that of a conventional 350bhp vehicle, but with fuel economy to rival a regular 2.0-litre petrol unit."

OMFG I would TOTALLY drive that! I just wonder how much it will cost? That sounds F'in awsome and I LOVE the way it looks!

I doubt they will end up building it with that kind of power.
What market segment are they going to be after? The M3, the S4? I don't know about you guys, but I would rather own a Bimmer or Audi than a Honda.

Exactly. The body kit does make it look kind of tough though. That's one Hun-da I could possibly drive.
