The new accord is not my style...turns to be the trend for a lot of the new Hondas coming out.

Hopefully the new CRX prototype will be released soon.

The v6 in my '00 accord was very nice. It felt very strong and pulled easily at any speed. However, I always felt a little intimidated in the presence of maximas. That accord ought to perform quite nicely with the additional 40hp. Let's hope that there hasn't been a substantial weight increase though.

What i dont understand in this whole 2003 accord sh*t is:
-ITS COMING OUT SEPTEMBER 9th (in showrooms)
then shouldn't there be some actual pictures of, not just this disguised ones, ya i know the coupe is pretty much how its gonna look, and the sedan in the second link is, but like usually by now HONDA would have it on their website, like its coming out in ONE MONTH!
they dont seem like they are very ready or prepared, or they are just trying to keep it on the D L (down low, for those who didnt know wat that is)

found this artist rendition of the 2k3 accord... I like this A LOT better, has the styling of both the RSX and 7thgen Si mixed into it IMO.... take note to the lil car in the top right corner, as well, CRX... mmmmm[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] The rex also seems to have the cross between the two in it's styling, which i think looks tight

This is just an estimate... but the Accord Type R would START at $27k. I doubt we'll get an Accord Type R when the Accord is already the most purchased car in America. If you want to import it then that'd be sweet but it's gonna cost you a lot of money. The Accord Type R has a port and polished H22A engine in it that produces 205HP at the crank. I think the sweetest thing about this car is it's interior. If you haven't seen the interior for this car, you haven't seen a really nice Accord. (I have pics, plenty of them.)

Well I wasn't to excited about the interior. The ITR and CTR interiors are much better I think. More race style and less luxury sedan style. But that's a matter of taste.
I also drove the Accord Type R. Right before I drove the S2000. Well, let me just say my day was gettin better by the minute. The Type R clutch was very heavy and you could really tell it was a B series engine with it's typicial 6000 rpm VTEC kink in point. On the S2000 the transition is much smoother, just like from what I've read on the K series engine. So unless the 2003 Type R uses a new K series engine, you're really better of with the ITR or CTR from a driving point of view.

The Accord fits the Accord. The Integra Type R fits the Integra Type R. If I had a luxory car like that, I'd want it to look like that.

(Got home late... still haven't slept). I'll have the pics later today.
