Comments on: Honda to show 2 tuned Accord models at SEMA http://www.leftlanenews.com/honda-accord-sema.html Car news, reviews, and specs for the auto-industry Fri, 10 Feb 2012 16:11:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: jackjimturkey http://www.leftlanenews.com/honda-accord-sema.html#comment-337105 jackjimturkey Fri, 26 Oct 2007 16:22:53 +0000 http://www.leftlanenews.com/honda-to-show-2-tuned-accord-models-at-sema.html#comment-337105 Lower-end cars? What a dumbass! I've not owned a lower-end car since I sold my Tempo. "Nav" isn't important to me, because I have other options. If you lived in my exurb, you'd understand the foolishness of not having A/C. I'm not from nebraska, semiintelligent organism, I lived there for 5.5 years. I'll never buy a G37 because it's not Nissan-branded, and unlike you, I'm not going to buy into this faux-luxury crap. Even on a good car, as opposed to an accord. Skyline? Yes. G35, no. Get your apostrophes straight! I'll be careful about where I take a dump; I don't want you trying to tap my foot. Lower-end cars?

I am aware of Thomas guides and if you can find one to give you turn by turn directions then let me know. That must be really convenient in the car. You only buy lower end cars so nav isn’t and won’t be important to you. You probably don’t like any modern conveniences you say things like "AC, Ill just use a fan. I’m not paying markup on cooled air". "Toilets, Ill just take a shit out back (you are from Nebraska after all) I’m not paying American standards markup lol You never will buy a G37 BC you are buying Tempos and Mazda’s. Cars like the G37 deserve better buyers than you and no you never make any sense Nebraska, that’s a surprise.

My Mazda was RWD, and I lived in nebraska. If you lived in souther California, you'd know about these wonderful things called Thomas Guides. G37 is beautiful, is that point enough? Not that I'd buy one. 1115: It’s all about knowing how to drive. My Mazda was RWD, and I lived in nebraska.

You people get on here and talk like you are drag racing. I doubt anyone buys these cars and takes them to the track Whats the point of buying a G37 base ? You want something base get an Altima coupe. If you want an Infiniti you want an Infiniti with all the options. You must be one of those cheapskates who puts those tacky ass portable navs on your dash. Pathetic Well where I live the winters are brutal and the idiots with rear drive cars are the ones stuck on the side of the road

Dealers here are asking 31k for a new stock accord coupe so this will sticker a load higher, so yeah that Infiniti looks damn good at that price, but the hondaphiles will still be all over this like mud on a pig's butt.

Why buy something like this over a base 3-series/G37 or even an Acura for probably the same money. I just don't get it. No matter what they load this thing up with it's still built onto a base car meant to sell for less than $20k... Like the old saying goes, you can put lipstick on a pig, it's still a pig. Not to say the Accord isn't a nice enough car within it's segment, but trying to be a performance coupe, it's not really going to cut it.

At that price its hitting Infiniti, BMW, and Acura territory. There's now a big gap between the Civic and Accord (unless you count the Acura TSX). Acura sedan sales are mostly flat, and this new Accord will not help. Honda really needs to look at their midrange models and fix them ASAP. As much as I love Hondas, I’ve got to agree with eddyjoe.
