It's an understood that not everyone will agree and my opinion. Have you got any absolutes to add to this or just opinions about which you prefer. How's that any different? The hatch is also something unique that the Accord doesn't offer and has been refered to in various pubs as the most balanced and hansome. Of course you don't have to agree. I own and like each and am probably less biased than you.

I would say drive them both first.
I was dead set on an accord v6 despite the AT poblems in the past that are supposed to be "fixed" now, but after driving one I changed my mind big time.
1) I couldn't find a comfortabele seating position even with the power seat (I'm 6ft, 180lb)
2) With the 17' wheels it rode very rough, rougher than my '06 altima with Eibach -stiff, lowering springs.
3) Under braking there was an unreall amount of nose dive! I was waiting for the front end to touch the ground when braking half way hard
I'm thinking about an I-4 accord now with 5-spd manual trans. That is the 300k mi car you guys are talking about.

Sorry but I'm not going through life on a message board with IMO in front of everything I say when it's obviously an opinion whether shared or not.Have a righteous day.

LowDawg... I thought I was nuts about my impressins of the SE v-6 accord since it is honda and it is supposed to be soo "refined"... than I went home and checked out yahoo and edmunds consumer ratings/reviews and many complained about the same exact problems I mentioned above. I will test drive an I-4 next, and if I fell the same I'm going next door and check out an tC as my second option. And with the tC I can go auto without worries

gas mileage. honda seems too concerned with it and not enough with performance. of course their v6 engines aren't the most fuel efficient.
i own two honda products, but will most likely never buy another one. it's fine when the cars are reliable, but if something goes wrong, don't expect them to help at all. i.e. honda/acura transmission problem.
