Thought you might like to see the latest photos of the '08 Accord, based on what I know this will be very similar to the model you will be seeing?

Funny how ppl keep saying it looks like a Hyundai Sonata but when the current Sonata came out they clearly copied Honda. That's one reason why Honda changed the Accord tail lamps in 2006 to a different shape and added LEDs.

I hope the 2008 looks better in person than in the pics.

not so much the tail lamps just the whole rear end i think alot of manufacturers are taking this style
the VE commowhore has the tilted forward look... no more sharp rear ends

I checked Nissan Australia's website and didn't see the Altima listed so I guess it isn't offered out there but in the U.S. it is a close competitor to the Accord along with the Camry.

Nissan took the last generation Altima and really improved it, in fact after looking at the '08 Accord, I think Nissan may have done a better job on their design.

I just received the brochure in the mail and after looking it over, I still get the feeling even though it has some really cool features like pushbutton start and CVT replacing their automatic, Honda does a better job on engineering and paying attention to the details. But it is worth a look.

This shot really shows where I think Honda got their "inspiration" for the greenhouse area especially around the "C" pillar:

Now, they've just released a new coupe that looks very similar to the Infinity G37, but the Altima is FWD.
