I agree with the 9th Gen. but there is something just a little too awkward about the 8th. Full disclosure I own a 9th Gen 6-6 so I could be biased. But I also felt this way before I bought it.

Nah, I get it. Accords looked great until the 6th gen, 7th gen was WTF, and the 8th was better, but still weird, but 9th is peak. 10th and 11th just keep going way out of left field.

lol naww the 7th gen is beautiful .

It’s not an awful looking car or anything, it just looks nothing like an Accord. The 7th gen outside the US looks much better (what we got branded as the Acura TSX)

The gen. 8 is bigger than the gen. 9. Right? That is maybe it.
That is a very nice looking car.

I have owned both 8th and 9th Coupes. Both excellent. Still driving my 2013 coupe

Immensely so! And Major FOMO that it did not make it to Australia as I’d buy one of those in an instant!

Indeed they are reliable. But as a Honda guy of about 25 years, it was one of the most bland and least rewarding driving experiences I ever had. No disrespect intended
@Ellis
It’s not a fast or sporty car. It’s really weird but works as a great commuter.

Such a strange car. It’s almost like a sporty first-generation insight. Hard to compare it to other more roomy hybrids.
I had an 04 exl. It was great. My wife-to-be kept taking it from me every chance she got. And she had an 04 TSX. I had fun in both.

I had a 04 EX manual 4 door accord as my first car and it was awesome. Such a smooth ride man and steering like butter. I got tired of the manual as I began to drive more miles a day with more city type driving. Now have a 16 accord coupe auto like the last pic, just in white and love it.
@Van
I couldn’t have a manual on account of wife-to-be. She knew how to drive one, we’re both from Europe. But she refused to participate. I learned to drive in this jalopy (https://images.app.goo.gl/9WBQkRFhi6vuFkER8), and my first car here was an 85 Nissan 300zx, manual. It’s had 117000 miles, no muffler and rotted out rear quarter panels. But drove fine, albeit loud. Clutch went to shit, I got an automatic and stuck with it. I travel for business a lot, so I rent a lot and on occasion I’d get a manual fun car for a few days. But I drive too much so auto is just so much more convenient. Plus manual pick-ups are virtually none existent. New Tacoma might be available for a year or two, but that’ll go away. Plus I can’t do Toyotas. Honda’s been too good to me. Can’t piss off the car gods
@Jonas
That thing is sweet man lol I love it. I hear ya on the wife, nothing you can do if it’s a no go from her and a car you would share or have her drive frequently. Very rare ladies want to drive stick everyday, heck after a while I didn’t want to either, but it depends where you drive. Country backroads are fun with stick, city driving is simply not. I drove it for 10 good years and was great to me though, clutch went out once but not many repairs after that and sold it with 160k miles.
@Van
Not many country roads around Detroit. Plenty of potholes, not many country roads.
