No it should be a bit cheaper but its the ALL NEW 2008 accord.I think that Honda is trying to look a bit like the 2007 BMW 550i, & if ya Don't belive me go to MSN autos.com and compare.Look at both cars from the side view only accords styling Qs are from the 07- 08 BMW 5 series.From the sideview look at the head lights and tail lights, then look a that body line and the little side window on the rear doors and how the roof top run down to the back trunk lid,,,,, now look at The new Altima 2008. The same style is what put the Altima on the map again seperating it from the Sentras style and they didn't have to bite light styles from a BMW. other than that its a nice car.
