Default Accord Coupe

Anyone have the numbers on the Accord Coupe 4 cylinder 160HP version? If you had to choose between a Base RSX and the 4cyl Accord Coupe, what would you choose?

The K24 Accord coupe - much more comfortable and easier to drive. The RSX is nice but too small for everday. A manual K24 Accord coupe does the 1/4 in the low 16's and its 0-60 is 8.5 sec. Not slow but no S2K

Can you get the K24 Accord Coupe for less than MSRP? How are the sales figures so far?

You can get any car for less than MSRP, all you have to do is make it happen.

A dealer here dropped 2 grand off a 4 cyl accord for my brother before he even took it for a drive (horrible sales tactic... devaluing a product before the sales person can even gauge your interest)...

What's the purpose of the car? Is it your only car?

I have a RSX-S, and it's a great small car. I test drove the base automatic version and was really impressed with it as well- not a big difference between the two in everyday driving. The trunk is huge for a hatchback, and the seats fold down enough to take large items- I can fit my mountain bike in there without taking off anything. If you'll be driving more than one other person around, get the Accord. If it's just a grocery getter for 1 or 2 people, then it's great. The RSX is my only car, and for just me and my wife, we don't need anything larger. Feel free to pm me if you have questions.

It's an only car... I was planning to buy my "own" car, but my Dad needs a car too, so he said that he is willing to split the monthly payments with me for a car that is in the mid 20's range (Canadian). He was looking at the Rav4 and the Civic, but I lured him away from it, and proposed something a little sportier...

I just picked up an 04 LX 4cyl 5speed sedan. It's a great car, gets 29mpg, kind of fun to drive, reliable. I think for the price, you are getting a lot of car, and a decent sized interior. I picked mine up for $18,400, it stickered at 19,700. C&D got a 5speed 4cyl sedan 0-60 7.5 with a 16.0 I think, not too slow I guess.
