I have a v6 coupe 6 speed.the gas mileage isnt bad at all....But good luck findibg one with a 20,000 limit.Not unless you get one with around 30,000 miles on it or so.To me the 4 banger is just not enough hp.I agree if you have a 20,000 limit civic si is wout a doubt the way to go.its lighter has more hp than the accord 4banger and you can just about pick up a brand new one for around 20,000 and youll get the warranty with it

Personally I'd buy that track ready car that someone listed in the for sale section for $3500.00 it's got the h22a in it (220HP I think....) with an aftermarket suspension, intake etc... that car would be sweet plus it's a lot cheaper than what you are looking at...

yea but if he has a 20,000 limit he cant afford the 08 v6 coupe! its going to be at least 30,000.

the

2007 Honda Accord Cpe 2dr V6 MT EXL ULEV w/Navihas a list price of $26,570.00 (nada) so I bet he could get a base model 08 V6 when it comes out.... but I still say that the h22 swaped track ready accord is the way to go.... save your money, buy that one and put a fricken turbo on it....

just my 2 cents.. If you are looking for sporty and a manual trans I think that a mid-80's to mid90's prelude would be perfect. sporty, good power and limited messups

i dunno... i think ill just wait till after the 08 comes out and buy a 06.. :P the way i figure is people are gonna want the 08 so it will make the 06 a lil cheaper :P.. plus it will be a little older by then and also be a lil cheaper.. and i dont really like 4 bangers ;P the money that is goin to this car isn't from my pocket.. its from my dad's... got a deal with him and my grades... i get As i get 25 grand.... already bought a jetski thou.. so its down to 20 or less........

Also check the insurance before you buy has well, it could save a couple of hundred dollars, depending on the engine as well. for instance a V6 would be more here in FL than a 4 cyl. As well as Dx is cheaper than SI, also depends on your driving record.
