Turned in my 05 TL and got on black 08 Accord EX-L coupe (4 banger) last week...car is pretty peppy considering I just went from a 270 (at least that is what it was rated at when I got her) 6 cylinder to a 190 HP 4 cylinder...

Nice. Did you get Navi in it? Are the new models still touchscreen, or do you have to use the joystick control only now. My 2004 Accord Coupe has a touchscreen navi, and the new models look like there's some clear plastic in front of the screen due to it's position.

Very nice but I would never be able to get the 2 door.

It seems like you get way less car for the same money. Four door practicality for me.......Especially for such a nice large sedan.

very nice bro, welcome to the crew :)


here's my 6g, she's a little modded :) red top "Type S" prelude (H22A-S) swap, and a few other goodies....


Accord Coupe's are great cars, you usually get the most powerful/fun combinations of drivetrains in the Coupe for some reason..

here's a pic of mine:
metallic blue/silver EX coupe, leather, 5MT

there's lots more photos in the directory that pic is in if you care to look....

The coupe looks really nice. Both Accords are much better looking than the last models imo. What kind of mileage does that get? Does it take regular?

It looks like a more expensive car. Did you consider anything else? I really like the Altima but haven't actually checked one out.

what type is yours? and what you pay for it...

my dealership sent me an email for an ex-l 4cyl auto, with locking wheels, mudguards and some protection packager for 23,900...also get 200 free accessories coupon and 200 bux off of that for internet coupon and a 250.00 gift card at best buy....

dunno if that is a good deal or not?

Nice... I was considering one but couldn't find one on a lot when I was car shopping last fall. I ended up with an Altima Coupe and am very happy with it. Hope your new ride brings you as much enjoyment as mine. :)

Is that an OTD price?
Mine was 22000 +TTL which in CA was about 24K OTD, mines not leather though. 23.5+TTL is not bad for an ex-l though.

The Accord coupes are damn fine looking. Too bad I've got family that has trouble getting into the backseat of coupes.

no navi...I already have a magellan GPS unit that works pretty good...the only thing I miss by not getting the NAVI is the homelink unit...my garage door opener is hanging off the visor now :(

I just got an internet quote on a Honda Accord Coupe EX-L V6 (2dr auto) at $25995. Does that sound good? I see on Edmunds.com that the invoice is $25,462.
