I'm new here and have been reading a lot of threads yesterday and today and I find it odd how some complain about the suspension and handling of the Euro and some have 04 models. Was there a major change between the 2 models to increase and handling of the Euro as I'm more than happy with my 05 Std, especially as a stock package.
What other changes were made between the 2? (for interest sake)

Addition of Milano Red

The Milano red replaces the old darker red.

Suspension has also been changed for the luxury model to suit the 17" rims. I guess it's softer setup to balance out the 17" rims. I personally haven't driven the 05 luxury but they say the bigger rims is making the Euro handle slightly better, in terms of sharper turn in. Besides that, there no difference in the standard models. The suspension on the 16" rim models (03-04 and std 05') all have a really soft setup imo. While it is excellent for everyday ride, it simple not good enough for any "spirited" driving imo.

good move by Honda. The Ruby Red was a terrible colour for the accord.

the shiny badge on the steering wheel, and chrome strip on the air-con vent adjusters were the 2004 upgrades from the 2003 models

btw, were there any others?
