Accord Hybrid?

Hi!
Just wondering if anybody has any new information on this.
Exact month it's available in the US?
Sedan only, sedan first than coupe?
Price?
Thanks!
Steve

All I know is that it's supposed to be mad fast and still get the fuel economy of a civic (if you drive nice) because the electric motor acts as a 'boost'. From the prices of other hybrid cars, I'd guess it would be 6-7k more than the normal Accord V6.

Over at TOV the concensus seems to be somewhere around a $4K - $6K premium vs. the standard V6. That puts it into the low 30s.

No one seems to have any reliable info on availability yet. Of course, there's no performance data either even though Honda's claiming performance "equal to or better than" the current 240hp V6.

Sorry, I was thinking in Canadian currency.
