Only just started to think about this since checking out HAF. It seems to me that American Accords are not the same as UK Accords. For example, do you have the Prelude ?
In UK, the Accord [and Civic] top the polls as the favourite car of the blue rinse brigade whereas in USA it looks like a suitable choice for the street hooligan along with Suburu and Various GTI. Am I wrong ? My one claim to fame is that I used to work with Honda UK M.D.
Side issue - do you get the BBC programme Top Gear on your tv ? Best motor programme ever !

 

what is the blue rinse brigade?

 

I bet 'blue rinse brigade' is old folks. BTW, since I've turned 50,"old" is now defined asMUCH older than ME...

USA Accord isa biggercar than most of the rest of the world. An Accord in UK, Europe, Japan, etc. is the same as an Acura TSX. The car that USA gets as the Accord is called the Honda Inspire (or something like that) elsewhere. But that car isn't available everywhere. That arrangement may have started with the 6th-gen car.

 

"Blue rinse brigade" ladies of a "certain" age.

 

So I joined up to HAF under false pretensions then. Am I still welcome ?

 

so everyone that drives a honda in the US is a street hooligan?

 

i'm a street hooligan. [sm=violent053.gif]

 

"Accord is a bigger car in USA" - must be a factor of bigger American backsides. In UK there is an Integra which is Accord coupe-ish, does that ring any bells ? How about Legend ?
I wouldn't mind someone posting a definitive list of US Honda models to ease my troubled mind as I paid many pesetas to download a workshop manual for the "Accord" but it all looks unfamiliar.

 

ok. i call them white heads.
