Default 2008 Accord Coupe V6 6sp Dyno!

damn inpressive 239whp dyno. car appears to be right off the showroom floor too.

imagine one of these with I/H/E/tune. 250whp+? i know that J32's(CL-S) and previous gen TL-S where making 240-250whp with minor BPU, so imagine what 3.5 liters and i-vtec will do. i betting 260-270whp.

The 08 Accord V6 doesn't have i-VTEC like a K20. It's a SOHC V6 that doesn't advance or retard cam timing while the engine is running.

I can't wait for Honda/Acura to do a NSX or S2000 replacement.

Now if only the Accord looked as remotely good as the S2000. Like the Altima, I don't care how powerful the Accord is because it just looks... not good to me.

Is it me or does anyone else think the Accord V6 (fully equipped) will cannibalize TL sales?

i was just thinking that! what separates the two, feature wise? bluetooth? i cant think of anything else...

i bet a loaded accord is still 5k cheaper than a loaded TL. so i guess the only difference would be which one looks better.

I ordered one yesterday. Polished Metal Metallic/Black EX-L 6MT w navi coupe.

I'll trade my MY2001 S2000 and my Prelude VTEC for it (and keep the Cayman S I just bought).

The navi Accords have bluetooth.

Look for "Honda Hands Free Link."
