Hi all,

Just about to put a deposit down on an MY12 Accord Euro (Base model).

Had a few questions about some optional extras I'm thinking about.
- Sunroof
- Front and rear parking sensors:

Can anybody confirm if both options will operate exactly as per the Luxury and Luxury Navi models?

For example:
- Will the sunroof also open as part of the feature where all windows will open with the key?

Any help appreciated.

Cheers
-del

The dealer might be the best place to find out about the sunroof.
I was told prior to buying my lux model by the sales person that the add-on oem parking sensor can only give you audio warning whilst the lux model has an audio warning plus indicator on the spedo showing which sensor is active.
Are you getting a manual or auto?

I saw a CU2 standard on carsales with a sunroof, wasn't the same as the Lux one. I think it was 3rd party.

Pearl white manual. I'll check with the dealer today about both things and post back here.

sunroof is not an option on base - bought my MY12 last week and only options were body kit, steering wheel, pedals, gear shifter, visors, mats, fog lights & parking sensors from memory. I wanted leather interior and sunroof but not to be. You'll love it mate, such a great car to drive! Hope you get the manual

Hey ddr, i had front rear parking sensors installed on my base cu2, just the beeping noises if your near object infront or behind, the dash doesnt display anything as pitiek had said as luxury has more features as it is already installed during the built part.

Not sure about the Sunroof, haha.

@oz95_4dr. i had leather interior done for mine. Did the dealer say you couldnt, or you didnt choose the option.

Also mines in manual, so much fun.

Thanks for the responses guys. Confirmed with dealer that it only beeps. Decided to back out of sale for now. On the hunt for a demo luxury instead. Manual too of course.

Good luck with that..
QLD is low on Euro and I was told by my local dealership that they are not getting new stock in a few months..

For my understanding dealers get leather trim done by trim places. I heard if you pay more, can get a much better leather trim than the one comes with the lux model..

My base model fitted with honda genuine rear sensors, it only beeps and thats more than enough to me. it doesnt have any indicators.. i think after market sensors comes with a display...

Not sure about the specs in Australia but the factory-fit parking sensors here have front and rear sensors integrated with the multifunction display in the speedometer. It shows the outline of the car and the sensor being activated. There's also an off switch next to the traction control switch.

We have a MY12 Lux Navi, and our factory fitted sensors also display on the multifunction display.
