Holy gas prices, Batman! Automotive News is reporting this morning strong sales of the Honda's gas-sipping Civic were up 14.8% to 111,695 units through the first four months of the year, and appeared to be looking good for May. Although we'll find out what the fifth month had to say when sales numbers are released later today, for the moment, AN's Kathy Jackson is reporting that Dick Colliver, Honda America's sales chief claims he's expecting sales of 40,000 to 45,000 units during the month. That would be enough to top sales numbers of the Accord, the reigning sales champ from the number two super best awesome automaker from the land of the rising sun. More »

Late last night, the embargo doors on the 2008 Honda Accord were blown open and we gave you a first-look and first-dump of all the pictures and press info we had of the new-for-2008 model of the Accord. Now it's time to dig a bit deeper and take a look at both the sedan and the coupe in a bit more detail — and we're starting with the four-door. The Honda Accord sedan's become all grown-up over the years — but we don't mean in terms of build quality and dependability. The Accord long ago moved up from plucky little upstart to the benchmark by which other automakers measure their own mid-sized sedans. No, we actually mean that no longer will other automakers be able to use them as the mid-size benchmark — because the Accord four-door's no longer a mid-size. Yup, that's correct, the Accord's now moving from the EPA's "mid-size" category into the EPA's "large sedan" classification. But that's not the only place the Accord's movin' on up. More »

Thanks to the folks at Edmunds for some slick embargo breakage earlier, we've now got the Inside Line on the 2008 Honda Accord in the coupe and sedan variants — with both the 4-cylinder and V6 engines under the newly sculpted bonnet. Here's the photos we've got — and the data and specs on all variations of the next Honda Accord are below the jump. We'll have specific information up and more photos on each variant tomorrow — but for tonight, here's what we've got — just as we've got it.

Yes, we have even more photos of the interior of the 2008 Honda Accord. No, we won't stop. Sorry, there just seem to be a lot of folks interested in what the new '08 model looks like. Because remember, when you're obsessed, we're obsessed. Yes, even when it's merely the new Honda Accord. More »

Forum frequenter CosmicTDI over at VWVortex Motive's "Car Lounge" has snagged himself some new Kroger parking lot shots of the 2008 Honda Accord coupe. They look better than the last ones we had — and this time we've even got a higher-res shot of the interior. Is nice. Great Success! We'll just add these ones to the last shots we'd procured of the four-cylinder, V6, coupe and interior shots of the 2008 Honda Accord — all of which we've included in galleries below.

A reader to the Blog all about the Auto was quick to draw their phone camera the other day and managed to have snapped a shot of what appears to be the interior of the newly redesigned 2008 Honda Accord. Wonderful — now that we've caught that shot, we can add it to our Coupe, V6 and four-cylinder shots — and finally complete the full set! [via Autoblog] More »
