Nope - Don't really like the exterior styling that much, although the side view isn't too bad, can't stand the back. Thank god they finally made an improvement over the "Console of way too many damn buttons" from back in 2008 though:


I would much rather take the new Camry XSE with the sport trim and all.

Since my previous thread has run it's course and closed,can this thread be closed too??? I'm not really interested if someone should buy a Honda over a GS. It's like should I buy a Toro mower over a Honda lawnmower on a Honda forum.

What numbers or source did you find on the structural rigidity? Could be true, but the Accord is a stretched Civic platform so I’m having a hard time with this. I can’t find any numbers to back up your claim.

You'd probably need to check crash test results and passenger compartment impingement and deformity. Air bags would also have a direct (pardon the pun) impact on occupant survivabity.

I am glad to know that you are not a 'thread ****'. We are not used to having threads closed on this forum. In fact, I think we might only have just one or two threads closed each year...if even that many.

I see the dark side is taking over you... “Fear is the path to the dark side…fear leads to anger…anger leads to hate…hate leads to suffering."

This is getting really boring. Are we really going to ask why we need an Accord over a GS?!

It was fun, but short lived... Hell, I've already forgotten what that tread the moderator closed was about, but I do remember that I was having fun...
