Finally a new rear end for Honda Accord 4 door sedan!
 
Remember that ugly rear end of one of the older style Cadillac?
Well.. it is glad to know that Honda finally changed the rear end of
their 4 door Accord sedan. The new style is now closer to the older
Accord coupe style... a smooth rear end, without that annoying broken
line.
Perhaps it is now time for Chrysler to fix that ugly flat face front
end on their 300C series.
Of course, style is a matter of personal taste...and everyone has
different view of a car. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!
Just a comment on the new 2006 Honda Accord.

On the same line of thought, I still have not heard any comment about
the close similarities of the rear end of the new Honda Civic 4 door
sedan and the Audi RS4. I never see the actual RS4 sedan... but the
photos look like the new Honda's rear end. I assumed that Audi RS4 came
up in the market first.

I'll have to go see it. I agree with you that the 03 Accord brought an
ugly car to the market.

I think the 06 Sonata is what the 03 Accord should have been,
design-wise.

I was just in Ireland for a while and noticed new Honda Accords there,
use the Acura TL body ( or a good semblance)

Well, it is an improvement, but the car as a whole is still not one of
the better looking sedans. I really had to get past the looks to buy my
'03 Accord. The new rear end looks like something from a recent Ford
crossed with some of the Lexus designs.

Honda continues to struggle to find a look for it's recent vehicles
which both stands out from the crowd and looks good. I doubt, for
example, that anyone is buying a Ridgeline for it's looks :(.
