The WRX looks more "sporty" than an Accord sedan imo haha. I don't mind the looks of the new Accord sedan except for the rear, the tail lights and trunk seem messed up to me.
The Accord >>> Altima.
Yeah, I wish they offered the Accord sedan in an MT. I would have gone with the V6 in my current car had I been able to get a stick. I could deal with the auto I guess (now that I have a kid, it'll be easier to back hand him while driving

) - but this is part of the reason I'm not a huge fan on the 7th gen 4-door. The rear end is another big problem. The only other issue I have is that the 6G was the perfect size, why they had to go bigger with the 7G is beyond me. No offense to any of you 7G sedan owners, but IMO, it just looks bloated...
The only thing that concerns me with the 6s is the Ford motor that Evo VIII brought up. But if they're putting that in their bread and butter sedan (Taurus), it can't be that bad, can it? Hmmm... that was rhetorical, don't answer that!!
Thanks everyone for the feedback, I appreciate your opinions.
