The A4 has a shorter wheelbase version of the same platform the Passat is on. They share no body panels.

The X-Type has way too many upgrades to be considered the same car as the Mondeo. It also shares no body panels.

The TSX is well, the TSX.

TSX is also on a shorter wheelbase and shares no body panels with US-spec Accord.

Hello, are we forgeting the avg buyer doesnt even know the Euro Accord is different than our own? I say a good 90-95% of the population would even know it's really an accord. as if theres anything wrong with that.

It's identical to the Euro-spec Accord save for the grille and badges.

It happens to have the USDM Accord interior. That's called a dead give away. Unless they change it, of course, which I doubt.
