My cousin has the previous shape Jap delivered accord Euro-R the 2.2. I never used to like hondas till I drove a manual high power Vtec. they are great little engines.It's an '04 2.4lt VTEC, Hondata flashed ECU @ Jtune for 132kw atw, custom CAI into pod, a Jap imported genuine factory full Euro-R bodykit (even the fog lights are genuine!), Jap imported Prodrive 6.9kg 17" rims, Jap imported Honda factory racing suspension (complete replacement), Cusco sways, Cusco strut brace, Apexi RSM, and a few other bits and peices.Great engine, great car. Never had an issue with it and it's only done 59,000ks.

New shape right, 2.5L? liftbacks are a great shape I had a tx5i telstar they are a great car.Having difficulty getting comfortable in the seat as there are too many settings available to the driver Handles nicely, feels solid.In regards to the new shape, I probably prefer the previous model.

I borrowed one for a weekend a while ago, and although it was a nice car, I found it to be utterly gutless!

I borrowed one for a weekend a while ago, and although it was a nice car, I found it to be utterly gutless!I can't compare it to the previous model so I don't know how it lines up next to it. (Obviously it is lacking a little when compared to the XR6T )So far very happy though as it is mainly used between Liverpool and Frenchs Forest (M7 / M2) and the XR6T would certainly be using up a hell of a lot more fuel.....as it did for the first 4 years that I had it. The SV6 was helping me out there a little in relation to petrol....but not enough to overcome my other dislikes.

Couldn't regard a Honda high enough. They're an awesome car and with the $5000 Honda racing suspension on my one, it out handles my F6! ha ha ha ha. oh gosh. put in my place. I have a $250 binjer for a second car and think its awesome and this bloke pulls out his new model accord. I almost thought of buying a euro 7th gen over the t. I love em in graphite with leather and a set of 20 inch chromies. jelousy is a curse rspec Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/43978-commodore-sv6-traded-in-after-4-months/page/2/#findComment-653141 Share on other sites More sharing options...
