Dont get married dude!, my wife didnt give me the option, and she rarely drives my car!

 

Trikky,

You're my hero! The ride looks real sweet in Red! However, for myself I can't bear to have another red car (my last was a '93 Civic EX cpe). That car was in just too many accidents!

Good to hear about the Auto's 7sec 0-60 time. I suppose even with the 260hp and higher torque numbers, my '01 Cl-S probably gets me to 60 in about the same time.

I will be throwing on the Aero kit and spoiler with the SE-1 17' wheels. I can't wait!

Also, you NEED to throw on some tint on your baby. It doesn't have to be real dark (don't wanna get you in trouble with anyone
).

Good luck with your new ride. And, once again, thanks for the Pics!

Cheers!

 

that shitz hot as hell.....the coupes look a lot better than the sedans by far.....tails look like benz....and that navi system is tite as hell!! very nice :thumbup:

 

From what I remember, the nav screen is 7"

As far as tinting goes....ugh...I think I will go with 50% tint. Here is a link to the other thread I started on it. You'll see the hesitation.

Tinting

Thx for the compliments guys. This place is probably a big reason I went with Honda to begin with

 

very nice congrats :thumbup:

 

Trikky,

Any particular reason (aside from money) why you didn't go with the 17" wheels?

I am starting to wonder what the advantages are to the 17 vs. 16" set. Any comments?

I think the 17" are Michelin MXM Pilots. I have these on my CL-S and I have to replace each and every tire at one time or another. They are thin as s**t and easily damaged! I am sure you can understand as I live in NYC!

Are the 16" the same make tire?

Btw, thanks for answering the Auto Dimming question in the other thread.

Cheers!

 

The tires that came on my car are the Bridgestone Turanza tires.

Money was a key issue, but I also don't think it really needs the 17" tires...yet. Since I havent really done anything to the exterior of the car I think the 17s might look a little strange. Once I start working on the body....and Im talking at least a year from now, I will reconsider wheels.

 

My CL-S has 17's and they don't look strange at all. I suppose that the same would hold true for the Accord. The 17's actually looked quite nice on both a Stock Coupe EX (with spoiler) and one with an aero kit at my local dealer showroom.

 

All in good time

They will come, oh yes, they will come
Just would rather work on engine first. This thing set me back a long ways in the $$$ department. Need to make sure I can put some money away. This is my first car outta college, graduated last May, so the stockpile is down to $0.

 

It'll look better with 18's anyway.
