Another way to tell in addition to the red V6 are the wheels. The six-speeds have factory seventeen inch wheels with wider rubber than the automatics. Before I picked the car up I had the dealership send it to a friend who owns a bodyshop to remove both the Accord and V6 emblems. So except for the 17's its very hard tell that mine is a six speed. Also had the mud guards painted in factory color (SSM), and the hood cleared with aluminum clear to prevent chips.
Anyone know of an easy way to post pics?
thanks again

good pick, I love the new 6-Speed. I work at Honda myself and I do the PDIs and most test drives before we sell them. The torque is perfect, but the clutch is a little touchy at first. I personally prefer a TSX (nothing beats a Euro Accord) but good choice. Welcome to HAN!

Thanks everyone for the responses! And thanks Wedley for posting the pics for me!
I think car looks very clean with the emblems removed and the mudguards painted. I think I'll tint the rear windows and leave it alone for awhile.
Looking forward to being a part of this excellent forum.
