Found this in my e-mail inbox. Hardly what I think will be the new Accord. Just look at all the black marks everywhere! (Maybe it's the artist's interpretation of what he wants to be changed in the 2008 Accord vs. the Accord Concept).

Detroit Auto Show- Part 24 (The End...or maybe not)
We're not done about the Detroit Auto Show or the Chinese invasion, yet. CHAMCO from China recently displayed its SUV and Pickup truck models at a tiny corner at the NAIAS. The SUV is slated to sell for less than $14 000 US when released later this year. The truck is slated to sell for just a little more than $13 000 US when released in mid-2008. However CHAMCO is not the company that builds these car, it's Hebei Zhongxing. The problem now is how consumers will react to these cheap, 80s or 90s technology/styling/engine. Long-term reliability is a huge problem for these cheap autos.
Spied! 2008 Honda Fit
New future Fit/Jazz spotted in the UK! It now seems that the new model now has a diesel engine and a much bigger interior with a new dashboard. You may think that this is the next Fit/Jazz but it isn't. It's only a new platform on the current model which is called a mule. Anyways, the Fit is going to the Civic leagues sooner than you think.
