Default Accord vs EX Civic

My beloved Passat - great car, but bring money, just died.
My wife has a basic Accord . She and I love it
I tend to go with the all the bells and whistles - she has an aversion to sun roofs etc
So I figure the cost of a bells and whistles Civic = a basic Accord
what do you experts think?
Thanks - pete

I belive that the accord is better on road noise insulation.

The accord is more of a family car than the civic.
And it's higher in the lineup.
Get the accord...you won't be disappointed.

What years are we talking here? Older civics have a way of getting stolen as well. For the price, I'd go Accord. Mileage differences aren't significant, more power, more room.

It depends what you want out of the car. If its space then you know that the Accord is the one to buy but the Civic should net better fuel economy but given the Accords bigger gas tank you should be able to get just as much miles or more from a tank of gas.
