it's a common misconception that they're the same length.
I am a proud owner of an 86 accord lxi.
They are very nice cars if your creative.
I vote for the 3rg gen all the way.
In my opinion they are one of the best looking accords around.
I suggest some of you guys go to: www.3geez.com
and look at the members cars. the guys over there really know
their stuff. they have some fly a$$ accords that are fa sho
worth flossin! I plan to do a b20a swap with tranny and axles
and all motor and tranny mounts sometime. just gotta get a 3g
with a straight body/unibody thats been well maintained.

I am/was also a fan of the 3rd gen Accords. I had a 89 LXi coupe, it was my first car and I loved it. It had been in the family since it was new and was passed down through the years until I traded it in for a 02 Accord. Here's a pic from a year ago. It still looked great.
