There is no replacement for displacement.

Every new car launch is always an excitement. But expecting more is always good. And when we have not one, but 3 accord V6s at your disposal, and things start to get rosy and merrier than ever. All 3 get delivered tomorrow.

• The car was just offloaded, so the V6 kit containing the new bold grille, ducktail spoiler, side moulding, illuminated sill plates, woody panel, chrome taillight garnish and bluetooth interphase was not installed. These form part of standard equipment with the car and gets installed by the Honda dealer before delivery.
• In addition to sunroof, the V6 gets ambient light, foot light, 2 sets of remote keyless entry and bluetooth connectivity, that is preparation for mobile phone with bluetooth interface.
• The 2.4 also gains preparation for mobile phone with bluetooth interface plus foot light plus 2 sets of remote keyless entry.

Enjoy the pics.

If wireless controls for phone would be installed on co-drivers pillar, how is driver supposed to have access to them?
Though, Remote control looks pretty good.
All in all, good stuff.

BTW, great work sidindica, this is the 4th scoop thread I am seeing from you today.

video of V6 engine

YouTube - accord v6 sound

[Otto]

kinda strange - it's dangerous to be speaking on your mobile phone while driving. Basically dangerous to do ANYTHING but drive.
Honda should have some sense driven into them.

[vinaydas]

honda are you still listening? Get the manual tranny on the v6!!

[GTO]

Sid, did you take it out for a spin? That V6 engine is a jewel (no, Solitaire!!!). Absolutely W-I-L-D acceleration....the kind of kick that's scary within the city. The mid-range will blow your mind away, yet the engine stays creamy smooth all through the revv band. Take one out for a spin and update us

[sidindica]

did not drive this model.

now get ready for a shocker-the car is equipped with a pre wiring for that bluetooth wireless hands free telephone kit. It is a 17,000 rupee option for all accords

Lootmart Honda

This is one car I really love and admire. Well 17G's is actually quite high, but probably shelling out over 25L for this car will hardly make a difference to the owner

[recshenoy]

Sid,

i have question regarding HU! it says "6 comapct dis" is it? we are enetring age of DVDs and Honda is still offering CD players on 25L car!

For me, Superb console still looks better!

And yes 17K for Bluetooth is loot! is this made by honda?

[sidindica]

The accord has an in dash 6 CD (audio/MP3/WMA compatible) changer as standard. Also standard is a USB port located inside the front armrest.

I hear the Superb V6 FSI is better. Autocar India did a comparison review in October 2009. IMO that the fuel for the Superb V6 FSI may be an issue for some owners as it is not available every where. Other than that and the a.s.s. issue, the Superb V6 is a great car.

I am not sure why you need a 6 cd changer when you have USB connectivity. As said by recshenoy,they would provide us a single DVD player with USB connectivity.

Instead of buying this 17 thousand Kit you would buy a very good bluetooth ear phone.

[cyqed]

Awesome Car. This car comes with a cooperate look but the last generation accord comes with a sporty look. Love the last gen accord. 3.5 Ltr engine with that kind of BHP can power a rocket. Awesome vehicle. Pricing is on the higher side though - 35 odd lakhs.

[aman9393]

What is that slot on the gear console's left side for?

[cyqed]

The mileage mentioned looks very unrealistic. Probably, it can be attained in testing conditions but in an everyday situation, i think you should be looking at something around 6Kmtrs in the city and probably 8 or 9 on highway. I wish these beauties came cheaper - like less than 25 Lakhs
