1998 Honda Accord "An Accord like no other" Commercials

The American Accord was only available in sedan and coupe form, becoming the largest Accord to date, sharing a platform with the Japanese market Honda Inspire/Acura TL. While previous generations of the Coupe were considered two-door versions of the sedan, the 1998 Coupe was the first to be given an exclusive front fascia, rear tail lights (which resemble those found on the NSX), wheels, and many other body panels, and was now marketed as a somewhat separate model, the "Accord Coupe", to set it away from the more family-oriented sedan version. It also allowed the Coupe, which was exported to other markets, to fit in more easily with the local Accord versions. The tail light appearance was duplicated on the Japanese market Honda Domani for the second generation of production. The coupe's design was styled by Don Herner and directed by lead designer Eric Schumaker into August 1995 in Torrance, CA. It was later scanned as a clay model and transferred to engineering in August 1995 at Honda R&D in Raymond, Ohio. It was developed by Honda engineer Laura Minor into production form until January 1996, being then developed into prototypes for testing
Starting with this generation, cabin air filters (also known as pollen filters) were installed as standard equipment and are located behind the glove compartment internationally.
F/G development began in January 1993 (during final development of the CD), with design work starting later that year. A design for the sedan by Shinji Takashima and Toshihiko Shimizu was chosen in January 1995 and later frozen for production by the middle of 1995. Prototype test mules were tested from mid-1995 in CD Accord body panels, with full body prototypes being used from 1996. Design patents were filed on March 8, 1996, with development ending in March 1997. Sedan mass production began in August 1997, with customers deliveries starting on September 23, 1997. Coupe production began in September 1997, going on sale on November 4, 1997.

[@cayleighjohnson8287]

Aweee it’s my car!! 1998 honda accord ex coupe. Mines green. 253 thousand miles and still going strong!

[@texan903]

While conservatively, inoffensively styled, I like the previous generation Accord better. Honda ran their sedans for only three years before a redesign until 2002. I think the 1994-1997 Accord should've gone until 1998 before the new release for 1999.

[@jayCLTeeee]

was the slogan only used in 1998 for the accord coupe/sedan?

[@thelibraryofoldcarads]

Yes. Along with local ads for 1998 Accords.
