But your last pic that showed what you believe to be the touring is car 214. The interior pic is of car 214 (I'm 99% sure). This car has a manual trans, no nav, no heated seats...etc. How can it be a Touring? Shouldn't the Touring have everything?

We are all guessing here, but notice the last pic has twin exhausts which usually means a V-6. And according to the trim sheet, no V-6 sedan has a manual. So the manual interior shot cannot be this car.......But that causes another problem, per the trim chart, the Touring is NOT a V-6,so that answers my question, the last pic is not a Touring car.
All will be revealed in about two months.

Per the trim sheet the Touring model starts with CR3, hence the Touring IS a V6.

The Touring IS A V6...otherwise it wouldn't be listed with a 6AT...all I4 Accords are either CVT or 6mt depending on trim level. Honda just doesn't feel the need to specify "V6" when talking about Touring because there is no Touring I4. If Touring were a I4, it would be listed with the LX, Sport, EX and EXL I4 models at the top of the chart.
Twin exhaust do usually signify V6, but the Sport is a new trim level to the Accord lineup...so it will be the exception to the rule. I think Honda AVHM has pretty much confirmed that this model is the Sport anyway.

I hope you are correct about this vehicle being the Sport trim, those wheels, though painted black to hide details, look great and gives the car a sporty,and hunkered down stance. But the twin exhausts keeps one guessing. As have been stated, it usually means V6..............We will soon see,but man I hope you are right.
