from the side it reminds me of a nike or running shoe.

[kyoru]

it's really different, but i'm not sure a good different :| why do they have to use those god ugly altezza tail lights.

[89dc240]

I'd drive it if the wheels with power didn't pull me along. Love the push.

[FaLKoN240]

I think it looks really nice and classy.

[Unholy S14]

i see lexus suing LOL

god i hate these crappy names

[02BRB20]

dannggg tirerack wheels and i-vtec; fuk yea

[exitspeed]

Don't like it. I don't like the new Accord at all though. This is like spraying cologne on a pile of turds. Bad cologne at that too, like Drakkar or some nasty cheap Walmart shit.

[ixfxi]

wow.............. another car for transporting the asian families in america.

hehehehe

dont worry, the maxima is still the primary vehicle for hispanic families in america.

is that mean? nah, us jews still rock the "jew canoe" ... if you see a 1980s wood-grain station-wagon.... lookout! :-)

I think the new accord isn't too bad looking. the only thing that I don't like is how far back the front wheels are pushed. the need to follow audi's lead on engine placement in the new A4 so that the front overhang is so extreme. I just saw a new accord sedan on the road the other day for the first time. It actually seems like a much smaller car than the last one, which I always thought looked like a giant turd.

Still a honda :(

when you want a practical reliable daily driver im all for honda.

I'm convinced otherwise for daily, practical, performance, and luxury :P


Driving a very wide spectrum of cars I can see where certain companies skimp out on things...


You really do pay for what you get.

naturally say and audis gonna be a nicer car overall, considering it cost quite a bit more. but for the price i dont think you can get better. a friend of mine had a 91 integra that was autocrossed regularly for over 3 years. at 130k miles the stock clutch was finally ready to be replaced.

Just because you auto cross does not meant you're beating the living hell out of a clutch. Most Autocross days i've seen. No one leaves 2nd gear.

Its okay to drive your car and not abuse it. Now the audi. I beat the living piss out of every day. Holds strong.

[jackjack]

cant wait to see the hyundai carbon copy.

I totally agree. I'm loving those brembos on the Accord though.

[ayuaddict]

i like the interior

[tre]

what audi do you have?

An A4. Was thinking bout the S4 but, i'm not that baller haha.

only drive time ive ever had with an audi was an S4 (2000) and the guy who owned it had lots of problems(turbos went out with 15k miles on it). but in the end it ended up making over 450 hp and taking vipers on the freeway. whichis pretty impressive. but id still say honda's are more reliable and so does JD power

[ESmorz]

Oh dear ugly.

450, thats it? lol

I'll be shooting for a 700 pull in a couple years. Damn me wanting suspension over power first!

this was in 2000, back then it was a little different


back when seeing a turbo 240sx was soemthing to talk about

[tre]

this was in 2000, back then it was a little different

Yeah I guess so. Now they have bolt on upgrade kits that do 450whp 460wtq pump and 550/560 race gas tunes. haha

You can't seriously be comparing an Accord with an A4. For one the A4 is $10,000 more (comparing base vs base). And you don't seriously think an A4 is as dependable as an Accord, do you?

Apples and oranges.

4 wheels 1 engine 1 transmission. How is one and apple and the other an orange?

Ok, yea that makes sense. So you can compare the build quality, dependablity, and performance of a Veyron to a 240 and say you're comparing the same thing? :keke:

I don't think there's anywhere else this debate if that's what you think.

[fromxtor]

I think it looks very clean, not too far over the edge like most "concepts". I'm sure certain things will be removed but, that might be very close to what gets produced.

[02BRB20]

the thing about that though is that comparing two cars of different segments really show what the real deal is with the more expensive car. Yea comparing a veyron to a 240 is a bit of a stretch, but its when you do cross class comparisions is when you start seeing what makes a car or doesnt make a car apart of that class.

for example when MT compared a Gallardo to the Focus RS8.

[qwikspool]

dang that thing is nice. but its still a honda.

[silviaguy240]

rear end needs work, and new wheels and it'd be pretty sick. and if it came in AWD. then it would be the shit for an accord.

That's what I thought at first, but the thread title is incorrect. This is the Accord HF-S, not the HS-F ;)
