If you're looking for an 05 one, you can include the 03 and 04 models cause they are pretty much the same. I think the 2005 one has a full size spare though..

05 one got 17' rim & i remember the suspension is a bit diff to 03-04 to suit the 17' rim. But it may not be a concern, at least for me, who will change the suspension setup.

If you want pre face lift, get this Euro R:

Been there for a while. I always look at it from time to time.


It's pretty high k's so that's probably why it's still on sale. And to most people, they'd just see it as your garden variety Euro, so it's nothing special to them. :/

Hey guys, just checked out an Accord and saw some weird crusty type stuff on the underside of the bonnet. Looks like a salt solution or something was wondering if anyone knew what it was?



I asked the dealer and they weren't too sure, they said maybe the steam cleaning of the engine bay? Do they ever use a saline type product to remove engine oil?

Also, any tips on how to nego the price lower from a dealer? They're asking 19950 for a 2006 manual lux and that's quite ridiculous, even though it has sat nav :s

Usually its fish oil to prevent the metal rusting...I could be wrong though

It's caused by the chemicals that they use when they degrease the engine bay.

Ahh alright thank you.

Was hoping to get the price down with it somehow... Haha
