Lower the pedestrian friendly hood and this car looks like an evolved 5th gen Accord. Add the eyelids headlights from the 6th gen and voila.

On a side note, the 5th gen was the last one size fits all Accord to be sold around the world. And it was the last Accord to have a Wagon version, keeping in mind the Autonews article that states a Wagon is being developed by American Honda, most likely based off this Accord platform.

There's a little in the side profile--picture the 5th-Gen with a Hoffmeister kink and the various creases and styling tweaks, and you'd have it.

I think it mostly looks like an evolution of the 6th-gen, like what the 2003 Accord should have looked like instead of the completely different jack-o-lantern face and Buick rear it got. This is a good thing.
