Difference Between 06 CL9 Lux & 07 CL9 Lux

[Stig]

As the title states, was wondering if there were any differences between any of these two models since there is a significant difference in price in the 2nd hard market.

You mean the difference between the original model and the MY06 upgrade lux?

* Updated trip computer
* Auto dimming rear view mirror
* Updated Steering wheel with a couple of extra trip buttons and illuminated controls
* Facelift external cosmetic differences (blue tinted parkers, different bumpers front/rear with different foglight surrounds, different grille, removal of chrome bonnet trim on MY06).
* MY06 Nighthawk Black has black leather instead of beige
* Different alloys (MY06 had 9-spoke 17", earlier ones had 16" 5-spoke or 17" 10-spoke like the Sport)

na i mean the difference in the facelift versions, 06 vs 07 models, was wondering why there is like a ~5k price difference in the 2nd hand market and trying to see if there are any difference between them

Satnav was still an option on the MY06 onwards Lux. It was only 'standard' on the special touring edition of the base car.

HIDs and 8 airbags also standard on MY06 Lux, not sure about the earlier version.

As far as I know, there aren't any differences between the 2006 and 2007 Euro Luxury. They are both "MY06". I have a MY06 Lux Nav which was actually complied in 12/2005.

I don't think there is any difference between 06-07 exept tyre pressure monitoring?or was that 08?

Hey guys just wondering, but since the 06+ facelifted model euros have clear/light blue parkers, and 03-05 dont have amber parkers does like mean they're jdm?

We've got the 08 and it doesn't have that... I know the TSX has it

the facelift models all have the blue parkers (with yellow lights). The 03-05 (pre face lift) just hvae clear black smoked ones without the reflector inside which makes it more dull than the newer facelift models.
And no it doesn't make it JDM based just on the headlights.

Thanks for the answer djpro1, but the amber parkers actually come stock standard for USDM accord euros, and damn they look NICE ! Wonder how much it is to get them, i want a pair!

The US guys say the opposite and want our clear parkers. You can buy the headlights from US websites. Only problem is the beam cutoff is on the wrong side, so you will blind oncoming traffic with your lowbeam.

Clears parkers are nice

The amber parkers dont look as nice as the blue ones imo. Lights are fairly expensive. Last time I checked, the JDM pairs were about $1000 from heeltoe. Keep em stock and do the parkers with T10 Amber LED's instead :D
