    the dodge demon looks like it will be in a good competition with the s2000, mazdaspeed miata, and the bmw z4.

    Ford Flex - As if Ford needed another SUV/Crossover/Whatever-the-hell-they-decide-to-call-this-niche-vehicle. I think it looks alright actually. If it's big enough, it'd be a good replacement for that garbage Freestar.

    Subaru Impreza STi - I don't like the styling on the new Imprezas at all. I think the 5-door idea is cool, but I really think that it could've been styled better. Sometimes when I see it, I think it looks boring...other times, I think it's just straight ugly. At least the STi will be a good driver. With the normal Impreza...it seems like Subaru just recreated the Camry: Comfortable, reliable transport. I guess that's good for sales, though it's snuffing out the enthusiast's support.

    Honda Accord - The car itself has always been a winner. The new styling of the sedan has some hints of BMW/Audi in it. I think it looks okay. The front end of the coupe looks very aggressive, but the tail looks really odd. Both don't seem to belong to the same car. The cars do look a little bland overall, but Honda knows that it shouldn't mess with it's champion Accord too much.

    Dodge Demon - Great market for these cars. The Solstice/Sky have taken off well and the Miata...well, that goes without saying. If they can get the driving dynamics right, this will be a killer.

    At first i wasn't feeling the new look for the 08+ STi. But ive recentally seen a picture of it, and man, doesn't it look good.can't wait to see how it looks in black with the gold rims combo..

    that accord looks pretty nice compared to the older models.

    The only one I like is the Demon and even on that one I'm more interested in the Nitro next to it.

    Ford Flex - More unnecessary, oversized, SUV garbage.
    Dodge Demon - Looks like a Miata with a Viper bumper. Could be interesting.
    Honda Accord - I'm not digging the sedan at all, but the coupe is alright. The edge-cut center grill bothers me though.
    Subaru STi - I like it actually. The styling is definitely taken from the MS3, but that's not a bad thing.

    The Ford Flex is going to be about the same size as the Freestar that it's replacing. I think it's an interesting alternative to a minivan.

    Watch this become the poor man's Range Rover.

    The Accord Sedan looks to Camry (ish) to me.They need to tighten the nose. I LOVE the look of the coupe, but like all others the rear is weird and out of place. The Sti is nice to me. I'd pick one up if I can ever afford to. FLEX? No comment. American manufactuers are tryin to damn hard.
    The Demon, I dont need to hate, but I kno that again the American folks are "borrowing" to much from others. It looks like its based off the Opel Speedster, just modded for F/R configuration. I mean... I'd rock it though.

    demon is nothing of a opel speedster... the solstice/sky are based off the speedster, gm owns opel.. if u care to know the new saturn line of vehicles will be pretty much based off opel vehicles..

    The Opel Speedster/Vauxhall VX220 is this...


    It's another Lotus Elise type M/R bare-bones driver's car.

    It is being replaced by the Opel GT...which is the same thing as the Sky/Solstice.


    They're very different.

    I find it weird that they replaced the Speedster with the GT. They're two very different vehicles.

    gms smart they probrably wanted to save money. they wanted to make a roadster for the states. but probrably didnt want the speedster with the MR setup so they just dumped the speedster, and put the GT outand just used that platform over here with the solstice/sky. Just like they are doing with the Saturn vehicles which are identicle to the opels. Gm was in financial trouble so i guess they saved some money sharing platforms instead of making all those different vehicles across the world. Ford is supposedly doing the same thing with their new lineup mazda/ford/volvos sedans all share the same platform as the european fords. ford was gonna bring the mondeo over to the states. BUT.. instead they jsut brought the platform over to use... i guess it means better cars from domestic companies!!

    I think the kit is a little too much.

    I'm going to have to see the car in person before I can make a good judgment.

    Holy crap man, where are you coming up with all these accord pics? Myself and everyone else at Ed Voyles Honda have been looking for pics of the sedan and since Honda hasn't released any its been fruitless.

    i loved the 04-05 STI body style. those are my favorite. Subaru started going downhill with them in 06(front end wasnt my fancy) and they have just completely destroyed them with this new body style. just my opinion...
