Accord Type R?

[Fizz]

Just seen how cheap these things are going for now... and it got me thinking that i could quite enjoy the comfort. (getting old in the 'ed)

Still hit 60 in 7.5 or somewhere there abouts... and look good. hmm... :bookworm:

What are peoples thoughts on these? Rash... Chattin to Mo last night and i think even he was supprised by them. The Type V which is a fair bit slower, comes loded with all the gadgets under the sun! B)

Man im confused as to what to get. I really want an Integra Type R.. but then my mind keeps wandering about...

Very nice cars I was thinking about getting one not so long ago

Try and get a test drive in one mate the seats are very nice in them

[Caz SR]

I think they look great Fizz and I've heard good things about them. Only thing is, I know your heart's set on an Integra - would you regret buying an Accord instead? Overall, reviews of the Integra indicate it's more of an exciting ride for the enthusiast. These links might help

The Accord Type R:

The Integra Type R

They are pretty good - but dont corner like the ITR

[Leeky]

I'd get the integra (if your hell bent on a honda ;) )

Luckly i've been in both the accord and the integra, so i can tell you right now the integra is in a different league.

Personally i dont like the Accord Type R, an old mate of mine used to have one and unfortunately it did nothing for me. He tried to impress me with it by gunning the hell out of it and it didnt feel very quick at all.

Its a big heavy car, and you wont be happy with it dude ;)

Stick to your guns and get an Integra if thats what you want

I like the Accord type R.... always have liked the Accord - Rich was considering one a while back, not a Type R, but it was just gorgeous and absolutely mint for its age.

I would agree with Caz though - your hearts set on an Integra.... would an Accord suffice?

[Firthy]

Integra all the way mate :D

i think theyre good, me old man test drove one... although it then did appeal to a 48 year old...

but the latest one does look superb

Accord .. nice cars if you deliver bread. Yo'll have to paint "hovis" down the side.

Get a new Teg ..

Id love to... but i dont like to spend what i aint got.. as much as i love the DC5.

BTW.. i love hovis...

[jaxx]

youd love to deliver bread in an accord

thats how i read it then

[Bibbs]

Known as the "Bread Van" .. due to the fact it looks like one :D

[Karma Supra]

I have driven one when it was brand new!

A friend let me have a good go in it so I could make my own opinion on V-tec.....

The car iself was quite nice.. not my sort of thing, but it felt well put together, comfotable and fairly thoughfull set out. it was not slow, fairly nimble for a big car, but it didn't feel as fast as my then company car (rival Mondeo ST220), however the Accord was by far the better car!!!

Cars that size should not however be FWD.

The performance is only slightly under the S2k .. and you will get 4 seats ..

But I've a button that make up for it. It's marked "ROOF" ;)

I think you will find thats infact a printing error.. its well documented on the web.. the 'R' in fact should be a 'P'...

I do like the look of the accord and no doubt they are well built

my dad had a accord its vtec would kick in a 5,500k and then thjlimit was at 7 or something supid so it was like a ford mudanob :P

[~Rach~]

We've been looking towards an Accord Type R for Nicks new car. Get them fairly cheap now (seen a few under the £3k mark) :D

But then again, I could get a hefty discount on the brand new civic (because of my bro) tis tempting he he
