I just realized ..... now you are assuming what EVERYONE thinks. Are you psychic?


Hey look!!!! I found something that we agree on!!!! My radio was cheap!!!! It came with the car ..... and for the record has gotten many compliments as well, but it wouldn't have been my first choice.


*************************************************

So EVERYONE else's opinion is wrong.

Ok maybe I was over stating my opinion. I was just annoyed with older gen accord owners bashing. You mainly only hear the bashing from older Honda owners who cant get used to the new look and you usually only hear it here online. In the real world people pull me over on the street to compliment the car some people dont even know its an accord.



Like mufflers??? You don't like performance exhausts, remember?

I was talking aboutcoil overs / suspension. The8th gen'sbiggest downfall is that huge gap in the wheel wells. I would def free up some of that restriction in the exhaust (eliminate the cat completly and the resonators)I just wouldnt put 2 huge chrome cans at the back of the car.


So you acknowlege that people don't like it.


So you can have opinions, but I can't?

I dont like the 7th gen stock, However I do like it modded with body kit, rims,and lowered.


Doesn't this contradict the statement above that eventually people will like it?

No....It means internet haters like you who probably have barely seen one in person. Let alone...one that is hooked up. As matter of fact a local forum Im on I got similar feedback about my original pics of the car. When I went to the local get together / BBQ and they saw it in person the car was the center of attention when i pulled up.


So no clutch kit now?

No clutch kit for me. Im not trying to be speed racer.



I've seen the car and I think the parts that I mentioned look like crap.

Ive seen your cars photos and DITTO. You should be one to talk. LOL.


As we all know, cameras lie, so we should all just take your word for it. I don't think so.

OK...well I dont like my own photos. Or any other photos of the car for that matter. I personally think it looks better in person. It looks best in Silver, White, or black. Red is ugly and that seems to be what Honda is advertising. See above statement....




Also, your prized "clutch kit" may make the clutch feel a bit tighter, but it doesn't do a whole lot for performance. If you want to make the car faster, you might want to focus a little more on the flywheel rather than the clutch.

If i was going to change the clutch a lightened flywheel and ARP Flywheel bolts would be part of the package. This will stay an everyday driver though so that is not in the plan for my car.

jblaust I think ur taking it too far. Falklore was stating his opinion on the 08 accord overall. He didnt point out any names. U act as if he called u out. Jus chill. Falklore is a really cool person.

And about ur bolt ons. It will not really give u 300. U see, u don't get 268 horses to the wheel. U probaly get about 245-255. U get 268 at the crank. The bolt ons will jus increase more power to the wheels I believe.

I second on falklores car. I used to own a 1999 ex-l v-6 sedan and it was a great car to own. The reason u say its ugly, cheesy or whatever is bc its style is outdated. Regardless I still think its a nice looking car. The only reason I no longer have one is bc hurricane katrina destroyed it. I now own a silver 07 accord coupe and I'll tell u now the 7th and probaly 6th gen accords r more than likely faster than their counter parts. The sad thing is the 8th gens r no faster if not slower. I read that the 08 v6 only gets 205 off the dyno which is only 10 more than the 07 v6 gets. No word on the 6 mt yet but the 0-60 time is slower than the 07 mt. No offense though. The 08 looks good but theyre not as fast as good as they look. I think they look too sporty for their speed. Again don't get me wrong. I like the new 08 but its not my style. I'm gonna be ready to leave my bro in the dust when he gets his 08 coupe
