98 accord - The "L" in the name

[Dreams]

been wondering what's the "L" represents in VTi-L if it means Luxury.
I dont see any luxury pieces fitted when i saw it in person, not even a leather.

Low

As it lowrider..haha..

Low Emission Vehicle. So its got a diff engine. E.g., the original VTi had F23A, however the VTi-L has F23Z, which is an ultra low emission engine.

im still not entirely sure what the 's' in vti-s stands for :p

vti-s ??? for SUPER ?? hahaha... coz its the lux model?

[Dreams]

thanks for the reply sireal.

perhaps S for sport ho ho ho

i believe there was a thread on this but who really wants to search, i think it read


Vti-S - sunroof, optional leather, alloys and stuff

Vti-L can also be alloys but usually doesnt have a sunroof i think ive seen L's with leather though...

maybe - S = sunroof...?
L = umm for you

in australia the VTi-L was only V6 and Leather

someone may have put the wrong sticker on the car

check the VIN number

vti's came with the sunroof too so prob not... and im also pretty sure leather was standard :)

? i think ur referring to the V6-L. the 4 cyl gen 6 vti-l certainly exists but afaik it was only released in 1999...

I beg to differ ;)

In aus,

VTi-L are 4 cyl ONLY with the LEV engine. Series 2 6th gens 01-02 (V6 and 4cyl) ALL come with leather as standard.

V6L and V6 come with the J30A2 engiens, I don't believe they are LEV engines, with the L meaning luxury in this instance.

[ECU-MAN]

yeah you guys are right I was thinking the V6L

the f23z means the last phase of the motor, such as the h22z was in the preludes before they ceased production

There is VTi, VTi-S, VTi-R, VTi-L in honda...

S stands for sport, R stands for Racing..

I used to own a 98 accord VTi..

since L is not for Leather, not for low emission vehicle either coz the 99+ accord came with LEV badge so it will be unnecessary to put L behind the VTi..

so L must be for Long since the VTi-L is longer than VTi...

[SiReal]

L is for "Lost" cos we are all Lost in what the L stands for hahaha

[elephint]

I think L mean longer base like someone said that before

[koj]

vti < vti-l < vti-l sport < v6 < v6 sport < v6L ?
