looks like someone accidently stepped on a MDX...

Honda has been building an Accord Tourer for years, and this is probably the follow-on to that. Non-US Accords are what's sold in the US as the Acura TSX, and this Accord Tourer has a much more Acura look to it than it does anything resembling the upcoming Accord, the front of which looks more like a Ridgeline than an Acura.
They'll build it, it'll be great, and they'll never bring it here because Americans only want sedans and SUVs, and I'll be able to go on hating them for not bringing it here. After all, wouldn't prefer a LOVELY RDX (*GAG*) over this?

It looks really good. Unfortunately, if produced in the US, it won't look at dynamic because it'll be done under the Honda badge. In Euro-guise, it's pretty slick. Some of the overall cues have been taken from the Dodge Magnum playbook, but that's not a bad thing...as Honda usually takes good ideas and systems and make them far better than originally intended.
I own a Chrysler and am in the market for an SUV or wagon having AWD and having 250+ hp V6 or 325+ hp V8. This Honda, if coming to the US, would be on my shopping list.

I think Accords are probably the most boring vehicle ever created and this is the best looking Accord I've ever seen.
I actually really like it.

DKB SATX:
This really is a Honda,in America they just rebadeg them
David S. @ Sep 11th 2007 12:27PM
Nice, hopefully it will be available in Canada (even if it isn't available in the U.S.), with AWD. I'm happy with my Legacy wagon, but I'd like more choice in a few years when it is time to replace it. I'd certainly consider a Honda (or if I save my pennies, the Acura version). No v6 or v8 for me, though, a basic 4 cylinder will do.

Say hello to the face of the next TSX. I personally like it- I actually really liked the last generation Honda Accord Wagon (sold in Europe) as well.
Owain Ozymandias Buck @ Sep 11th 2007 4:03PM
Ooo! A TSX sport wagon! I hadn't thought of that, but I would love one. Of course I'd have to wait a year or two and get a used one, being too cheap to buy a new luxury brand. Man, that would be a cool little wagon.

This wagon with a diesel engine? Ohhhhhhh wow. Sign me up!
icu812ru469 @ Sep 11th 2007 12:48PM
Like a previous poster said, this will never make it to U.S. The station wagon is dead in U.S. We love our big gas guzzlers and 4-cylinder or diesel just won't cut it. Put a big 3.8L V-6 dino engine with 12/22 mpg and then we'll buy it.

Can you say SAAB 9-3 wagon?

iamhoff @ Sep 11th 2007 12:53PM
Presumably this foreshadows the next TSX...you can tell the Acura intentions by the goofy-ass MDX style grill. Because it's going to be sold here as an Acura, it's doubtful that we'll get the wagon, but I'd rather have this over an RDX that has no offroad capability any day of the week.
pedro @ Sep 11th 2007 1:01PM
This presages the next TSX/Euro Accord, not really the US version...It would be nice if they brought a TSX tourer here into the US (and a TSX coupe...ahh one can dream). But what we see here is not the US based Accord platform.
Level @ Sep 11th 2007 1:01PM
I bet my left nut thats and Acura....
J. D. Billiford @ Sep 11th 2007 1:04PM
>>> This is a very good looking car and I do like it. I also couldn't help seeing in the profile shot its resemblance to the new Dodge Journey crossover. Albeit, the Honda does appear to be longer with the more Europeanized styling in the lines with a kiss of Magnum as one previous reader put it. Who knows? This car may just make it to production and U.S. shores in the not too distant future.
Nellydesign @ Sep 11th 2007 1:08PM
Ford called...
and that front overhang is HUGE!
Evan @ Sep 11th 2007 1:11PM
Please please please bring it to the states as a TSX wagon... We need more sexy wagons to change the minds of the people who still think they're frumpy.
Travis @ Sep 11th 2007 1:20PM
When Ford puts 3 bar grill on the car, everybody talks how bad it looks. Yet when Honda does the same thing - all of the sudden its beautiful?
Speaking about bias.
J. D. Billiford @ Sep 11th 2007 1:30PM
>>> Excellent point!
