AUDM vs USDM K24 in Euro

[Fredoops]

Are you on drugs when you said this?

The one that attract me most when I purchase a CU2 is the front grill and the sporty looks. CL9 is like an oldie-person car for me (er... yeah same as my current car ). But to think that there's a person out there that says TSX grille is better...

Each to their own mate.
The chrome bit breaks the grill up. so it appears narrower, an the chrome bit can be easily replaced with other things (like body color panel/CF/Aluminum etc)

Good point +1! lol

But I guess the thing people have to consider is -> you're paying extra for more luxury and power...if you're willing to pay an extra 5-10kfor that then you "should" be willing to fork out the extra $1k a year :P

If that is true then no one would be buying i-DTEC Accords in Europe (which outsells petrol 4 to 1 or something), and Honda wouldn't be selling accords in Europe with a 2.0 Liter as standard

The point I was trying to make.... *If* the USDM TSX can match the AUDM Accord in power/output while using 91 RON... Then why dont we get the same spec, was it a marketing ploy?
Sorry to sound like a skeptic but Honda Australia's been ripping consumers off on parts etc for the last X number of years they've been here.

Besides.... $1000 is like... a crap load of carbon offsets.

Considering the US uses AKI instead of RON I suspect it's a moot point.
