Already looks better than Camry. Conservative, but better. I like Atima and Fusion best in terms of exterior styling. Once the Fusion bows we'll start seeing the inevitable Accord, Camry, Altima, Fusion, slug-outs. But I think the new Mazda 6 will be in this mix as well.

I was waiting for your sir.

I see the minor differences, and im not a hyundai fanboy at all (im a nissan fanboy) but you can't really say there is no resemblance at all. (btw this is aimed at all not just you Mike )

and to Mr. Wolf above, im not saying "omg look Honda copied hyundai," I'm just saying look at the similarities.

no doubt very similar! but small details matter too - the genesis has a nice chrome strip around the rear bumper, but the accord doesn't if i'm seeing it right in the pics!

One of the reasons that conservativeness leads to the homogenization of cars.

Too similar!

Honda needs to take the white out of the rear tail lights! Would look much better. Hate white/clear look in the rear tail lights.
