2007 Honda Euro / New shape?

[blw]

Hi

I am very close to buying a Euro but had a few quick questions...

When do Honda usually release the next year's spec? (ie. Subaru release their MY07 usually in July, August time frame)

Anyone have an idea when the new shape for the Euro is due for release?

Anyone know when the Diesel is due for release?

Any help is much appreciated :)
Thanks

From various sources on the web, Ive read that the new shape will be released in 2008.

they've just face lifted it in 06. i think it won't be a while until they do another face lift. but i think 5 year is a good span to change model... so maybe something is coming 2008

so they've planned to stop making the euro's?

the 2008 accord looks awesome (and expensive)!!

More speculation (that needs to be stressed) about 2008 Euro/TSX here with SH-AWD and TURBO 2.3.

That turbo 2.3 (k23) is ready to go as we have seen in the USA - as is the AWD technology as seen in the legend. I am tipping this to happen - SH-AWD is definately going down the lineup IMO and it would be unusual for Honda to spend the R&D to develop a turbo to be used in one model only (the RSX).

2.3L VTEC Turbo *drools* move aside WRX/Evo :D

Although judging by the pics, the visibility out the rear looks quite bad, similar to the IS250's rear high windows... not good. Teh current Euro's visibility is bad enuf :p

but the integra or rsx already phase out...no more producing

Sorry typo - meant Acura RDX. Released not long ago. We MAY be getting the turbo engine and SH-AWD drivetrain from this into a 4 door sedan to replace the Euro.
