The Honda Accord is an excellent allaround midsize sedan. It's also ohsomainstream—even though the Accord is actually quite sweet to drive, the sportiest version you can buy (it's called the Sport, because obviously) isn't exactly a BMWchaser. Instead, the Accord Sport wears visual dressup bits and unlocks the lineup's only available manualtransmission option. So, what would a hardercore Accord look like? We imagine a little something like this: a 350plushp Accord Type R. Interested?
We have no idea whether or not Honda is working on such an Accord Type R, and a spokesman for the company dodged comment. In all likelihood, it isn't—but allow us to make the case for why Hondashouldbe working on one. Honda's fan club is a fervent bunch, and, like all of us, they eventually age. That means their automotive needs will grow beyond Honda's dwindling supply of fig leaves to driving enthusiasts, which now includes only the compact Civic lineup's Si and Type R models.
