Hey everyone

I was just wondering why are there are more ppl driving Accord 94 models than the 96 or 97? Are the 94s better in some way? Performance? Looks?

If a 94 and a 96 Accord went for a drag (assuming both had same mods, eg. exhaust, suspension, CAI), which car would most likely to take the flag?

same car man.. no diffrence.. but i think the accord 96 is a touch heavier..
due to big tailights..etc..

Cos the '94s are more common, and people havent taken to the '96's yet cos of the rear lights. They look phat though, and some people are starting to come around... :D

Not sure on whether there is a weight difference, if there is it would be minimal. The main difference is the '96 uses an OBD2 ecu, which can cause issues with things like Hondata or sometimes using "hacks" on NA tuned or forced induction cars. Other difference are tail-lights, front grill is different, front bar and lips are different, and the bootlid is slightly different also. Also front indicators are amber instead of clear.

Thats all i can think of off the top of my head

yeh i actually dont mind the 96's, my dads got a 96 Limited Edition model.
i think they r a little by wider in the rear end.
lookin at them stock, i prefer the 94 Vti-S models, but once u start modding, both can look phat :D

Speaking of which....I was at Hanny's today when I saw this nice white 94 Accord Vti-s with side skirts, and nice Rims. It was Pimpin!

He's selling, so I told him to come on here and post in the Marketplace ;)

i prefer the 94 model, cheaper and better style i recon..... but they are basically very similar to the 96 apart from the appearance factor.
