Lets put it like this. My Ford is more powerful, more comfortable, and more likely to stay mine so easy on the Ford hatin'. I'm just saying that I do miss being into the scene a lil bit, I liked how sporty my Accord felt in comparison to my current car. I had so much money invested in it, was finally getting it looking the way I wanted, had visions of a DOHC motor under the hood. And with so many damn Accords here, it would still stand out as I haven't seen a single GGP Accord here nor one with the exterior mods I had on mine. Besides the gay rims, any reason I shouldn't get a 96-97 EX?

96-97 tails and front end aren't as good looking as the 94-95.

Default leather

Leather was available on all four years of the 5th gen Accords in EX trim except the EX wagon and leather was standard on the 95-97 EX V6 sedans. I liked the look of the 5th gen Accords and I tried to find one to replace my old 89 Accord but I couldn't find one that was in great shape in my area. I also thought about the 01+ Taurus, but when compared to a 02 Accord EX V6 there was no comparison.

the debate about 94-5 vs 96-7 tails will never end. usually you like whatever you have better.

DRFrank, I'm pretty sure the 94-5 grille will fit the 96-7 without modification. can anyone confirm?

VRGNCD5, if you can find a 96-7 coupe, the wheels won't be as terrible.
