The new Accord: Today's PICS

Went to the dealer to see the new Accord with TwilightX and Krepoort. Nice looking vehicle. Up close the sedan looks yummy.

A closeup of the engine.
Store your junk in the trunk!
Same 6x9's that we have.
The key is kick ***! The guages light open when you open the door.
I feel a DIY coming on!
Front, the color is off. It's lighter and more blue in reality.
The sticker; WARNING 866KB's.
The back; again, not the real color.

Yeah, the Accord was pretty tight. The doors are solid..and I mean like BMW solid. All cruise control buttons on the steering wheel. Nice. The charcoal color is just Not too keen on the center console and never been a fan of the tails. Alot of other little goodies though. Overall, its pretty sweet.

Why am I getting this growing sensation that a 03 Accord LX Coupe is a smarter buy than a 03 Vic?[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG]

Hmm... Good question. I don't know? They didn't have the brochures yet. They will today though, so maybe I'll check it out...

The coupe features the J series V6 motor (non i-VTEC, just plain VTEC) - 3.0L rated at 240 hp. It also has a 6 spd short throw transmission. Motor Trend did a test of the new V6 coupe and timed it at a little over 7 secs. going 0 to 60.

I went and looked at the sedans the other night. I think they look awesome. The back is a little ugly. However, I saw a black ex with a spoiler and I was like dayum! The spoiler makes all the difference. I am going for an oil change in just a bit so hopefully I will get to sit inside one.
