If i got one i'd order the grill before i even pay for the car!

Although the metal grill isn't as bad as it seems when you see it with the aspec kit.

I believe the Euro sports package they offer in Japan and Austrailia etc.. is the A-spec package they offer in North America... as far as the OEM kit goes

Now I don't know about you guys but given the picture of the Euro Accord , I much prefer the wheels of the TSX despite all the negative comments on the stock wheels. Even the grill, I am not a big fan of it either, now they have an option for a sport grill that looks pretty nice because the mesh inside the grill is not the brick pattern but the same mesh as the one as on the aerokit front fascia, too bad Acura don't have that as an option for the North American market.

Now you guys can be the judge, I know its my opinion and maybe I am biased since I love my car...




The wheels on the Euro Accord look like a bunch of Diapason put together...you know, the music thingy, look it up on google

Yeah I agree. The wheels look weird. And I don't understand why people are so crazy about the grille on euro Accord, it's just plain.

Hmmm yep the Euro accord grille looks well neutral, doesn't evoke any feeling of luv or hate. The Acura grille on the other hand is a luv it or hate grille....

Personally I think most Honda fans are used to the familar neutral Honda grille and as a result hate the new Acura grille b/c it's so different.

has anybody looked at the grill on the new malibu or any other new car on the road today? the grills are pretty much the same except for the badge on it. TSX GRILL > the rest.

Actually I'd say the exact opposite - most of the cars today look the same and manufacturers are using the grille to differentiate its aesthetics. Just like BMW has always relied on its twin nostrills for differentiation, other manufacturers are starting to follow suit. Hence the Acura shield, Chevy split grilles, and even Hyundai's new Genesis grille.

I actually think the new Malibu is an attractive design and Chevy attempts to set it apart using its split grille...

Hey guys and girls, I just ordered this baby with the aero sports kit. Get it on 8th jan if all goes to plan. My mate has the same as what im getting in black and it looks amazing. Im getting mine in Vocano grey. His is 6 speed manual, mine is auto. all up it costs $47,000 saved $5000.00

What I love about this car is the fact it has all the functions of the latest series 5 BMW but costs $70,000 less.

Im 6"3 and solid build and its like the seats were designed for my build.

those wheels on that white aero kitted accord arent the ones standard on the luxury models in Australia.

This car either manual or auto are amazingly quick. The stereo is also bloody good for standard issue.

Photos will be up once shes in my driveway.
