Some lady has a sedan down the street, white one. And a few houses down some other lady has a white Z.

I'm trading my AV6 in for a 6 speed AV6 when they come out in Feb. 03.

At first the thought of a 6 speed Accord Coupe V6 was very appealing. After thinking about it more and contemplating I thought that it just wouldn't make sense to upgrade an Accord for an Accord. If i'm going to buy another car, i'd rather it be a different model at least since I probably wont stray from Honda. I'm really feeling SUV's right now just because there so convenient but I dont like any of Honda's SUV's at all. The Pilot is just not right to me, and the CRV is to small. I would probably get like a Envoy or Trailblazer. Both are very nice, my mom own's a Trailblazer LS and its really nice. I love the color of her car as well. Either way, I think my next car will be a lux. SUV because of how much I would enjoy having a SUV. Anyways... Just my $.02 on things..

The 2003 Accords that I have seen at the dealership are going for full window sticker. I will hold off until the lots are full of them.

I haven't test drove one yet and was wondering if the road noise has been muffled in the 7th Generation Accord?

It really has, it is not as loud as the 6th gen at all, the engine (at least the V6) has a little more growl to it, which I like. Definately has more pull, and handles much better (stock vs. stock)

Yeah, actually my sister just got the 2003 v6 coupe in sandstone. Fully loaded, not one thing missed, it has everything. Its an auto, but it still has some balls. I drove it for about a day and i really like it. It's one hell of a smooth ride with some power but i want to try the 5 speed. The only thing i think looks gay is the sunroof shade/spoiler thing that is clear grey. It looks pretty funny. The interior is extremely nice and it has a lot of trunk space and great room for the people in the back. The audio controls on the steering wheel are great. And the 16' rims are nice for factory. She got the last one on the lot and it was the last one between 3 honda dealerships, so she is pretty lucky. It came out to 27,700 and she leased it for 2000 down and 315 a month for 15,000 miles a year and the lease is for 4 years. She absolutely loves and it i think it is pretty nice, especially since it is my car's great great grandson (4th gen accord). LOL

What a damn liar. you should have called him a lying idiot. "Yeah we will only get one manual accord coup, so you better hurry up and put it on hold" With that logic that means what there will only be 1000 or so manual accord coups if you count all the dealerships in the US. Right

Before you go and make an ass of yourself, you should of asked me :fawk:

Most dealerships will receive 1-2 Accord "Sport Coupes" for the first Model Year. Odds are, the salesman was correct.

Yeah let me hunt you down and ask for your OPINION Mr Honda God. Your speculation is about as acurate as mine so dont try to act like your Mr. I know for a fact consult with me specialists. With the high demand for a 6 Speed coup what kind of sense would it make to only give one to a dealer ship.

I was just kidding with you bro h:

Allow me to reiterate...most dealerships will receive only 1-2 MY 2003 Honda Accord "Sport Coupes". That is fact, not speculation. I don't talk out of my ass. Here, since you don't believe me, allow me to quote a memo from Honda Market Ops:

FROM: Dick Szamborski - Asst. VP of Market Operations
RE: October MOVE (#160) ALLOCATION DETAILS
************************************************** ***************
-All dealerships will now complete their MOVE via HiN (the Interactive Network). While gaining familiarity with MOVE via HiN, it is very
important that you complete your MOVE as early as possible. Don't wait until Tuesday afternoon.
-URGENT! The Accord is switching to Value Chain timing. The Accord's you order on this allocation will arrive in November. As we launch this brand new Accord, with new trim levels and reduced lead-time, please expect some reconfiguration. Don't confirm customer sold orders until after you've gotten your order confirmation.
-Contact DCS/HiN support for specific assistance requests .........................

KEY POINT #3: Accord V6 Coupe. The V6 MT Coupe will not be introduced until the 1st quarter of 03'. The production quantity for the model year is very limited. Most dealerships will only get one unit (V6 MT) for the model year. Please consider this if you are accepting deposits on this model.
