UPDATE

Ok guys here are the clear pics and comment by edmunds.com bloggers
Straightline wrote:Hold the presses! Here are some images of the all-new 2008 Honda Accords, both coupe and sedan!

This apparently was a brochure photo shoot in the forests high in the mountains of Canada, Obviously somewhere that they didn't expect to run into camera-toting spies!

As we've seen before, the coupe sports a honeycomb grille, whereas the sedan has horizontal bars. And based on the wheels and dual exhaust these are all V6 versions.

Honda has publicly talked about more horsepower, better fuel economy, cylinder deactivation and lower emissions for the V6-powered Accord and although there's no word from Honda, we're anticipating a 3.5-liter V6 with about 270-horsepower, as well as the base 180-horsepower 2.4-liter 4-cylinder version."

@grayfox666

The 2008 Honda Accord will also reprise front-wheel drive and offer four- and six-cylinder engines. The four-cylinder will stay at around 170 horsepower. The V-6 likely will grow to 3.2 liters from 3.0 and probably will add to the 2007 version's 244 horsepower, if only to stay abreast of V-6s in newer competitors such as the Nissan Altma (270 horsepower) and Toyota Camry (268). Expect fuel economy with either engine to improve slightly.

Do u mean 244 out of 3.2L ?I dont think that info is still 100% sure.
I guess that the current 3.0L produces 254 hp.The dealer tells u that it makes 275 hp but they always add a few horses. :)

@ grayfox666

Well! I am sure no one knows exactly. I think 244 Hp is their guess as well, I hope all these guess goes wrong.
