Now that is how you take a photo teaser to build up hype...maybe not beautiful, but certainly menacing.

Lights look good, if not particularly memorable. The creases in the grille are definitely there, the ones that follow the LED strip at the bottom of the headlight assembly...much like the CT concept grille.

Also, those side mirrors must have the cameras for the new safety system...

I think they're fine. They are not dots like almost everyone else.

There is a country where they have a road named "trollstigen", (troll ladder) and where they have sign on the road warning about trolls crossing the road:

DCR is just trying to keep Honda on their toes. Hopefully, the new Accord will be a home run!

The LED strips look cheap, sorry...not my fault.

BMW (and probably others) have already done that "buried behind glass" look for the lower strip, and I think it looks cheap as hell. Of course, anything else will step on the Audi signature look, so if Honda had to have LED's in here, I guess this was one way to go.

...and people accuse me of being a troll. If you want to really know what that means, just reference any post by Dr. Whiner (who is really 80honda by the way), and there you have it.

"Sour grapes" about what, exactly?
