Inspire = Accord?

I was planning to buy an Inspire emblem to replace the Acura emblem on the trunk, but when i did searches for it, a lot of sites said Inspire is the JDM Accord. I thought it was a TL?

Can someone please clarify this for me.

Here is a table to help you visualize:

JDM USDM
99-03 Inspire/Saber 3.2 TL
2004 Inspire Accord V6
2004 ??? TL
2004 Accord TSX

Got it?

Honda Inspire and Honda Saber (JDM = Jap Dom. Market) for the 98-03 years was the same car as the (USDM) Acura TL 3.2
In Jap. they had two names for the same car because they have three different distributing points in Jap. Basically two of these distributing points sold the Honda Inspire and one sold the Honda Saber.

Honda Saber



Honda Inspire



They also came with cloth interior


Also had another optional engine a 2.5L V6 producing 200 HP


Since 2004, the Honda Saber name was phased out. The new chassie used was USDM 03 Accord, don't let it fool you tho, it has a lot more features then the USDM 03 Accord and even the 04 TL.

So the new TL has nothing to do with the new Inspire, right?
