ACCORD....it comes with a 5-speed now...
You talkin about the v6, right?
If they have 5-spd v6 Accord coupes, I think I might get one because the Accord coupe looks 10 better than the 5th gen Maximas. But too many riceboys drive accords, 5speed or not. What I would really like is a 2001 M3. ha ha ha.

I think you're right
It does seem like very few people want sticks these days. I still don't get bummed out by a manual--and I've gone through bumper-to-bumper in town and NJ Tpk holiday traffic. People always told me if you live in a crowded place you'll understand why everyone now prefers auto. NOT! Heck I hope to get a 6-speed next time. One more gear to play with.
Back to the Accord, well, it's been a good car ever since its inception. Look at the Maxima, the 5th gen now has incentives to help it sell. It's really too bad Nissan can't seem to just sell a car without doing that. So now they do the same thing to all the 2000 and early 2001 owners. Probably the incentives will get larger through early 2001 until they reach $2000 again.

wha
I doubt it was a V6. 4 banger Accords were always in auto and 5 spd.
Also, another good way to tell if its a V6 or not is exaust pipes, the V6 ones have dual exausts like the 3.2 TL.

yea, the accord v6 has the dual exhausts. just incase any 4banger accord is ricey enough to add a dual exhaust, check the lugs on the rims. the v6 uses 5 lug opposed to the 4 lug pattern on the 4banger.
Sure it wasn't a 4cyl.....
next time check the exhaust the newer V6's have duals(ugly ones at that!!) HAHHA.....Ricers swapping displacement badges, whats the world coming too!!!! and I thought swapping Vtec badges was bad!
