design, imo. I can't stand the bloated, Buicky look that AHM gave the new Accord, and I think lots of other people probably feel the same way. The Accord is a great overall package, but NOT in a Buick wrapper.

I disagree with you, I think its styling is Teutonic solid.
It looks so German that VW copied the lines for the next Jetta.
This is my fourth Honda & first Accord.

-> If they could just update their Accrord better that just changing the tailights here is my suggestion, make it look like the JDM Inspire look (w/o the modulo kit shown):

Give the Accord the JDM Inspire front end, get rid of the new all red tail lights and go back to the red and white, and go back to the alloys on the 03 and 04 V6 EX and you have a sharp car.
If you sit a 05 V6 EX next to an 04 V6 EX, the 04 looks better. The new tail lights and alloys just plain suck.

The red/white tail lights look better on dark color vehicle.
The new tail lights looks almost red/amber, IMHO this would've worked.

Anyone else think it might be 5AT recalls that's causing the sales decline and not the styling?
