I wanted to use the woman comparison. Then I started thinking about the Accord compared to a woman. I went down hill from there.
One of our posters mentioned. The pedestrian safety stuff concerning the new Accord. While I believe some of this is a contributing factor. The fact still remains. The 8th Gen Civic was built to this safety criteria. And it doesn't look like a pickup looking for a lift kit. Nor a Chrysler 300 looking for 24's.
Back to the woman thing.... God did she have a jacked up grill and a big butt.
