Hi Everyone,

I have just purchased Black Honda Accord V6 Luxury. Hopefully this forum is as helpful as a few around.

Cheers.

No not yet. I will be picking up the car next week. Joined the forums to see if there are any niggly issues that might need some attention but nothing so far apart from people hating the wheels etc.

Thanks for the reply though. I will post pictures when I get the car.

Thats good to hear. I am pretty happy with my purchase but havent got delivery of the car yet. Whats the fuel consumption like? Is it anything like a falcadore or is it much better than that?

I have found on the whole the fuel economy is pretty good. The highest average that I have experienced in the time that I have had the car is 10.2 l per 100km. It is brilliant. I did a return trip from Sydney to Melbourne and Back. On the trip home, consumption was at 7.8 l per 100km in the hilly stretches out of Albury, but once on highway, with cruise, and with Cylinder deactivation running, the fuel consumption dropped to 6.9 l per 100 km, which is brilliant for a car of this size and power. I have noticed lately that the Fuel consumption has slightly increased (only to 11 l per 100km), however, I am currently running 91ron (Normal Unleaded in it), However, all the other figures were with 95 RON. Never tried Ultimate (98RON) in it yet. I came from a VZ Berlina (Commodore) and this sips fuel compared to that car.

Good luck with the car, Hope this helps!

Thats good to hear. I come from a VY Berlina and so I should see the same hopefully. Is it more difficult to park this one? I was reading in a couple of reviews that this car is 55mm more in length than the Commodore. I am pretty alright with reverse parking, its my wife's parking I am worried about . Hopefully the reverse camera helps in this.

Haha, we had a VY as well, before the VZ. I haven't found parking to be a major problem, however, when parking nose in or tail in, in places like shopping centres, just make sure the car goes just that slight extra bit forward, just because in some car parks (up here at least) the rear/nose can be sticking ujust a bit out, if not in far enough. We have the Camera (as its standard), but also ordered reverse sensors as well.
