Just read where the 2003 Accord V6 coupe is also getting a six-speed manual. Honda wouldn't waste all that R&D just on little old us now would they???

of course not, they are the masters of recycling parts and
crisscrossing, overlapping platforms

I wonder where the 3.5L v6 RL engines are going after the upgrade to v8

its quite simple

7th gen accord is going to have our engines. probably get rid of the 4 cylinder and just either have a 225 v6 or a 260 v6 like the cl-p and cl-s

Rumour is the 7th gen Accord V6is getting a 3.5L with 240hp. I wonder where this horsepower race is going to lead. It'll suck when every POS car has 250+ horsepower stock. Back to the muscle car days????

Honda will never get rid the 4 cylinder accord, That's their biggest seller.
