Kb1 and Accord

So i always assumed before i owned one that the accords that resemble the kb1 ran the same years. Anyone feel annoyed or cheated that Honda decided to design the 09+ Accord around the kb1? Like wtf? Its like the offered it as a luxury design prior n then retired the likeness to a lower tier line as a "new" look wtf.... in a way it cheapens the look and Identity of the RL.
Thoughts?

Lastly, where do I find a genuine Owners manual for my car that lists features, functions and milestone maintenance?

Wow... so to my great suprise, i was watching a video the other day of someone installing some custom audio stuff in their RL, when i saw they tucked some wires in a secret compartment in the glove. I was like wtf...?
I went to my car to see if i had it and boom!!!!!!!

I have always made fun of the people that think the Accord compares to the RL. A car enthusiast can tell the difference by looking at the headlights or taillights alone. When it really comes down to it, there are only so many ways you can design a mid-size sedan on an ACE frame. A lot of people including me give props to Lexus for differentiating themselves from Toyota, but if you look closely, there are a good number of models that are nearly identical. In the end, the argument boils down to an image thing. Why does it matter if an economy car resembles your luxury car? The car you drive is unique. Fuck the hatters.
