OMG I wish I could afford both. I hope we get to see these, they are both awesome...but what will this mean for the Civic-R?

I might want to have kids though before driving the civic!

LCD Instrument Panel on the Si.

The Accord concept's exterior isn't to my likings. The bottom half looks too Pontiac, but :bowdown: to the interior and that wicked LCD in the center stack.

As funky as some these "concepts" look, remember...they are just "concepts." Being designed by Honda, the aerodynamics actually serve a purpose, don't they? Well, i'm diggin' them cuz HONDA people designed them, and tweaked them (with some help from other manufacturers, of course). One question though...why must these be concepts? How come the production cars come off the assembly line so DULL??? I mean, look at the competitors, i.e. turbocharged Protege, SVT focus, WRX sti (soon), EVO (soon), and the not-so competitors, the new Z? 18's and brembo's? Sometimes it makes me wonder why Honda U.S. has to hold back...

HOLLA!

Nope, it's really spelled Alcantra.

Does anyone have an account at hondanews.com so that we can download the full sized pics?

Or can someone with CGI skills hack the website for those awesome pics?

I was referring to you apparently actually believing that I wrote that article myself.

You wasted a lot of time getting those links :slap:

I like the paint color on the accord but hate the design. I like the Si much better.

Paint the Si in the same shade of yellow and I'm sold.
