id say go with the vr4 there still fast stock and they are beast. i also heard accords v6 have bad tranny problems so id go with the vr4 and you can get it in a stick instead of auto. fwd can perform just as well as rwd. you just need to not be a ***** and fight the wheel.

Rep Power: 0 oh, you have the automatic accord... that's a tough one then. it all depends on what you're looking for. i'ld say if you're looking for a quick car that you can still take your date out in, go for the accord. now if you're really planning on getting into it, and really building it up, go for the vr4. i mean you can still take your date out in the vr4, but i think accord would be better for the giggity giggity factor

Rep Power: 341 meh mitsu products i don't trust. they do not have the reliability that honda maintains, plus the repairs of anything on a vr4 will be comparible to german luxury. and, it is an extremely heavy car as others say. in theory, the vr4 is better, but in reality i think it would be a poor choice.

Rep Power: 0 Covert the accord to the new 6 speed and roll two small turbos save the weight. Unless you like heavy cars.....if so then get a fat girl to ride shotgun in the accord!

Rep Power: 0 10g under the hood of a v6 accord does seem pretty interesting. I'd imagine, that you might be able to get a manual trans swap done with your boost build. Ask the shops what you can do with the car on a 10k budget.
If it would be a reliable car, I'd rather have a turbo accord. Nobody expects it, so embarassing people in riced out civics, scions, neons, cobalts etc. could become a fun and regular activity.
