No......Im talking about the AV6 Coupe 6-speed. They are not released yet. But this has been notified from honda. So Im sure they were not running the cars as hard as they could be ran. But this is only off the line. Not the whole track...........

 

I'm not too crazy about the new front end (head lights thanks to the Focus) and the all plastic grill. But the rest of it is great. Also I test drove a Civic SI with my friend (who is buying a Mini instead) and the new power assist steering feels vague compared to the older models. I don't know if this is the same steering system they have in the 2003 Accord but it definitely is not something I'd like. But again that's the only thing I have complaints about the rest of the car rocks interior and all.

 

The Euro and Japan Accords look better IMO. I don't really like the front OR back of the new US Accords.

Euro:
Granted this is the type R (S), but still the headlights and tailights are still on the base Accord over there:



I do love the new Accord interior...especially this option package (just need some ash gray leather instead of the cream):

Very cool IMO.

 

That will be the Acura TSX (see thread in Automotive News and Rumors) . It should hit Acura showrooms sometime late 2003 as a 2004 model. I think the TSX will have the 200 hp and six speed from the RSX-S, and perhaps a 240 hp version as well. But lets try to keep this thread on topic for the Accord.

 

s2000 has an LSD.

 

Don't put your chips on 240HP big guy :fawk:

 

O.K, O.K. already. You got me on that once before. I'm just an optimist.

 

I'm a realist and a pessimist. But them again, I never thought the Accord would have 240HP. I just have no idea how Honda could get 240 out of the K24....the stroke on that thing is huge.

 

I LOVE the new Accord, sedan and coupe... the Euro verion looks HOT!! The rear reminds me of the previous generation Camry though
