December 30, 200520 yr First, take a G6, deform the roofline to make it bland and make the taillights look ugly. Slap on a Vauxhall (or to-be Saturn) grille on the front. Add H badges to taste. Ta-da! Didn't know Honda loves GM so much these days... I just see so many similar things.
December 30, 200520 yr Well... considering Honda had that grill design before Saturn... and the greenhouse was designed before the G6's... and those taillights bear no resemblance what-so-ever to the G6's... I totally see the simularites! :rolleyes: Okay... try again, Toni. :D
December 30, 200520 yr Sorry, but I don't see much Grand Prix in the Accord's taillamps. The overall shape and position may be similar, but the GP's bizarre ribbing and overstyled trunklid kill any real resemblance for me.
December 30, 200520 yr The Accord rear is what the GP should have looked like!! [post="65366"]<{POST_SNAPBACK}>[/post] Um... no thank you... unless you meant the coupe's original ones, which, would fit the GP nicely.
December 31, 200520 yr The GP rear is what the Accord should have looked like!! Seriously, Accord, lose some weight in your ass. I realize its winter, but...

[post="65609"]<{POST_SNAPBACK}>[/post] This stupid decklid-indented-into-the-rear-fascia thing gives Accord a chunkier caboose. Cleaner? Maybe. But blander, smaller-looking, and far cheaper-looking than even the inverted Odyssey taillamps of the old Accord.
December 31, 200520 yr Considering how almost every new GM car seems to have headlights based on the '96 Civic, I'd say that comparison works both ways.

[post="65610"]<{POST_SNAPBACK}>[/post] Seriously... the Accord's new rear looks like ass. It's chunky and bland. Fly's right. I'm not saying the GP's rear is all that great either, but it looks better. It's not chunky and it looks sporty... which it should. IMO, if the elements of the taillights were redone, the ribs removed, and how the taillights looked from the side (including less rounded, but still curvy)... I'd think the GP's rear would look great.
December 31, 200520 yr Decka beat me to it... some assmunch cut me off in a silver ojne yesterday and all I could think of was "Russian Knockoff of a Grand Prix" Maybe we should start a Grotesque-Butt thread? This would take the cake. Looks liek it fell out of ther ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down. The profile is just painfully drab but the front is decent. Not great buit at least it's clean withouth being toatlly sterille.
