and with mostly equal warranty.... who gives a shit if something fails between now and the expiration.

my only regret is that i couldnt wait for the TDI's to come out... :hs:
Accord's drive like Kia's? I don't even know where to go with this one. But let me say, there's a difference between substantiated heft and actual quality.

The quality difference between Accords and Jettas/VW's is night and day IMO. Volkswagen does a nicer job on the details, and the interiors are more upscale (except for their horrible microfiber carpeting). But chassis impacts, and road manners...everything that comes down to R&D, Honda wins hands down.
