It was recently reported by the Germans from Auto Motor und Sport that Honda is currently working on a serious competitor for the Mercedes-Benz CLS and the Volkswagen Passat CC . The 8th generation of the Accord, which will make its debut in 2011, will be the perfect opponent for the two German cars, but will this vehicle have the same success as the CLS and CC? This remains a dilemma!
