Do you think the Euros like the current US Accord coupe/sedan at all?

Since both the US/Canada, Japan, and Australia get both versions of the Accord, the Euro and USDM, do you think the Europeans feel cheated that they don't have a choice to purchase to the US Accord coupe or sedan themselves?

Do you think the Europeans would like the USDM Accord coupe and sedan?

Meh. The euros get a better selecction of cars than we do across the board. If they don't get the USDM accord, I'm sure their feeligns aren't hurt.

There are plenty of US A3 owners that were/are pisssed that we dont' get the 2.0T with quattro yet it's available in Europe.

Nope. They generally drive smaller cars there, and have better selection than we do anyway.

Is that the stock grille in europe? WAY better than the ridgeline grille we get if it is.

Honestly, I think the coupe may sell. The Japanese market does NOT get the coupe, as stated erroneously. If the coupe were here, I would buy it quickly.

Back to the EU. The TL is not sold there either, so are they missing out on a good car? Yes, but there are so many good vehicles there that they really wouldn't sell too many (Honda's that is). Germans believe that a better product costs more, so Mercedes and Audi sell well, along with BMW.
