Hi guys, I'm a first time Honda owner. I've only owned Mazdas in the past, but I really grew to like the 2007 EX-L V6 6MT sedan.

The pricesare pretty good right now with the 2008s coming in soon. Also I did not like the increase in bulk (and no manual sedan) in the 2008 edition, so I decided to get the 2007.

I'm still doing my best to drive it gently like the owner's manual says. Shifting around 3000 RPM and all that. So far I'm really enjoying the ride and I can't wait to drive it every morning!

I also test drove a Subaru Legacy GT and Mazdaspeed6. The Legacy was just too small for me (6'4", 230lbs). The car was basically a 3-seater with me in the front seat. The Mazdaspeed6 was a lot of fun too, AWD and I had enjoyed my past Mazdas. But ultimately the reliability of Mazda's AWD system and inexperience with turbo-4 engines turned me off. I found the Accord a little less nimble but still with decent low end torque and a nice look. The reliability factor sold my wife on it.

Thanks, I should have made the pictures lower res, so more than 1 would fit in a post (each pic was 500k).

By the way, I was reading that most Accords (including mine)are manufactured in Marysville, Ohio. Where are the rest made?

 

Hello!
Man, that is a really sweet ride. I test drove one and my skinny lil wallet was on FIRE!
Have fun and no door dings!
