Cars For 2008
I talked to a salesman on Friday about any new cars for 2008 yesterday and he said there were NO NEW CAR LINES OR BIG MODIFICATIONS.
He said the brochures have already come in on the new cars and that there won't be any big changes to the TL like no AWD. The TSX is getting a little change as well as the MDX I think.
Sorry to post this again, but I wanted everyone to know.

hm ask him for some of those brochures and post them online I mean as far as the MDX and TSX changes. And I never thought 08 would change look at the 2G TL Type S was added in 02 but the 3G didnt come out till 04. I didnt think they would have a type S for just 1 year.
Don't listen to salesmen! They just want to put you in an 07, they will say ANYTHING! We all know a new redesign for the TL is coming in 2009 for sure. I can bet you anything, look out for it. The car was just facelifted for 07 so almost as a rule it has to run at least 2 yrs. (Most carmakers follow a 5 yr cycle; 3 yrs after a redesign then a 2 yr facelift cycle. Some carmakers do a 7 yr cycle too) If your salesman knows anything he knows this too. If not, make a bet with the salesman and make some money off him!

As far as I heard, the TSX would be redesigned as a 2009 model and would be released maybe Spring of 2008 AS a 2009 model to get a jump-start on sales. (The early 2008 release time-frame has caused some confusion leading some to think it would be a 2008 model that might be released in 2007.)
The redesigned TL would be a 2009 model released sometime in the fall of 2008.
This is a rumor that I heard though, no confirmation.

What the sales person said seems to be what the rumors are. I think he when he said 2008 he ment model year not actual year. Which is true because as far as we know nothing is changing for the 2008 model year.

The redesign is happening to the TL in 2009
But, if you go to Temple of V-tec they have some spy shots of the TL's cousin, the 2008 Accord. Usually the TL follow alongs the same basic lines as the Accord.

whether we admit it or not, TL & Accord share some parts ... but to say that they look alike, that's a bit far stretched ... TL is by far a better looking car with the same kind of reliability of a Accord I hope ...

Sorry I didn't mean to "stir things up" I just wanted to let people know what I heard about whats up. You don't have to believe me.
What I meant was the cars coming out this fall, not the ones next year.
