Touchy brakes....I agree to that somewhat, but it's something that can easily be controlled. I think if it wasn't for the 'touchy' brakes in the Euro, I would have ran over a cat 2 nights ago.

You guys see the pic of the engine in that review? It has a black cover!? Ours is silver with red VTEC lettering.

"Honda's Accord Euro Luxury model also features HID head lights complete with squirters to the clean the front lamps, but they're pretty useless against anything but dust. I figure it's another one of these 'luxury' appointments Honda added just to give the Germans the irrits."

Ermmmm....aren't all cars equipped with HIDS meant to have washers?!?!

The auther got this wrong, The reason for Headlamp washer is to comply with ADR (aust design rule). Car fitted with HID must have headlamp washer.. Dont ask me why?

Otherwise, very well written review.

i knew how good the euro was when it first came out and this guy took a luxury one to eastercreek raceway and was lapping in the low 2min mark. You gotta have a handling car to be able to do that.

Very impressive........only gf's parents got a auto

nice review to read.
Very pleasing to see that there's hardly a single bad thing about the Euro.
It'd be even better if I had 05 model, but it's no big deal.

Euro Lux and some other car have the washer jets hidden under a small cover on front bumper just in front of headlights.
While some cars have the washer jet mounted in front of headlights eg. S2000, Lexus previous GS300, 1st Generation ES300

With Euro, When u have headlights or parking lights turned on, when u activate windscreen washer and wiper, the headlight washer will activate at the same time.

Some cars have a separate switch for it. eg. 1st Generation ES300
