this is not the accord they released in china, the accord they have is the same as ours in the US. i believe this is manufactured in China, not Japan. SR-9 stands for..Sporty Premium Sedan. R stands for Research and development. the reason for 9 is because its the highest from 1- 9 lol

Lights at the rear look a little odd, but I generally like the front end better than the bucktooth. They should have given those wheels to us as they look way better than the tinny looking 17s they offer as stock.

From those photos, build quality doesn't look that bad. I mean, I have a chinese made Honda generator and I haven't had any issues with it at all. I've come to realize that if wanted to and if needed, China has the capability of producing top shelf items. But the downside is that Chinese manufacturing is also extremely well known for cutting corners whenever and wherever they can (thus leading to all those toy recalls and the milk recalls, etc etc etc). Now, outside of that, I still would rather have Made in Taiwan then Made in China.

It does not look good at all. it is too flashy. good for cheap asian tastes just like neon lights in the cities.. TSX or only Euro Accord Type S looks the best.

This car is definitely an improvement on the 09 TSX! It's the little things that make a big difference! I would love to see if the interior is better too.
