Default 2013 Honda Accord
Here it is exposed. Although this is the plug-in hybrid version.

A Honda that actually looks good?? Wow.

It has a lot of potential.

Hopefully, they didn't cheapen it like the current Civic...

I've seen other better spy shots on other websites, but I wouldn't be surprised if people confuse it for an Acura when it debuts in production form.

Looks like they got rid of those ugly tail lights finally.

Looks just like the RLX to me.

Could care less about accord spy photos. Just show us the real car

Here's some shots that are less-revealing but also little less-fuzzy:

It's bulls**t, IMO, to still have the bra and covers on this late.... Come on, this car's going to be on the market in just a few more months.

Are those HIDs and LED tail lights? On an Accord? Can't be...

From the spy pics, it seems that Honda might be on the right track (finally)...

The bronze car seems to suggest something better looking than the IXL. Seems to me the Accord will make the TL and IXL somewhat redundant.

The rear reminds me the Genesis, but yeah, it looks good!

Have zero faith in Honda at this point. How many times have we had high hopes during tease photos and when it's finally revealed, it's another let down? I've lost count. Not falling for it again.

Seems very similar to the concept they showed off in China, but it also has a lot of TL design cues in it now....
