I agree that the average Accord sedan is quite bland. However, the sport-tuned V6 6-Speed 250hp coupe is another car entirely. As far as ride, power and amenities, it's tough to compare it to anything else in it's price range. I have a fairly deep wallet to buy nice cars now and I think if I had to ditch my Accord coupe and buy another car, I would be looking at the new model.
