Honda Releases Sport Pack for New Euro Accord (http://www.motorauthority.com/news/sedans/honda-releases-sport-pack-for-new-accord-euro/)
Posted on Tuesday 8 April 2008

Only a month after the official reveal of the new Accord Euro (Acura TSX) Honda has unveiled a new Sport Pack designed for both the sedan and Tourer wagon models. The new kit includes custom bumpers front and rear, a set of sporty side sills, a blacked-out grille, a discrete bootlid spoiler, integrated fog lights and new 18in alloy wheels.

The interior also gets several new appointments including a titanium finish on some of the dash elements and leather trim on the seats, steering wheel and gearstick. Other features include an optional satnav system, USB port for iPod connectivity and a power operated tailgate in the Tourer model.

The car’s mechanicals have been left untouched, which means 2.0L and 2.4L petrol engines or a new i-DTEC 2.2L clean-diesel. All three engines get a six-speed manual transmission as standard while the two petrol units get an optional five-speed automatic with steering wheel shift paddles.

The rear and the sides looks decent enough. The front bumper however does not. The regular bumper looks better and so does the regular chrome honda grill. Where is this lip and side that I see in this picture?

This looks a lot cleaner then the sports package shown in my opinion.

WOW, that actually looks good to me. A huge improvement.

I like the rims, I like the bodykit, and I like how they remove the chrome off the grille. Hopefully Acura can get the same treatment.. needs to be lower though :)

Yea i agree its growing.

it doesn't have door moldings it the reflection of the cut according to the other pictures.

I could be wrong it does look like it but not really...

IDK. It really looks like it has door moldings on the sedan because the wagon doesn't have a weird reflection on the sides if it is a reflection. Really looks like it might be some add on maybe?

The front bumper still kind of looks out of place to me.

Definetly isnt growing on me yet, actually its the exact opposite, the more I see it the uglier I think it is. :donno:

Those wheels are hideous too.

haha. That's how I feel. When i saw the rear, I was like that looks kind of decent until I saw the front bumper. It makes it look even worse I think. And yes, the wheels look pretty horrible I think.

Seeing this makes me feel better about trading my 05 in for a 08 and not waiting for the 09.

Now thats the grille that I'd rather see on the TSX than that chromed teeth style Acura has going.
