I have to agree. The altima gets better mileage. I was surprised to see that. The altima gets 2 more mpg in the city. The accord also weighs 100 pounds more. Looks like the honda accord needs to go on a diet.

Honda built their new accord around the back seat because they wanted to compete with larger american sedans, and lose the compact car image. bad idea, it compromised styling.

1. "cat in the cup" is Ben B, I logged onto my old account on a computer infected with spyware and Topix banned me for spamming.

2. You were here, Bubba. Youre in bone gap Il just like him.

3. Maybe because domestics are improving and people are starting to see the light?

Sorry BJames, we are from IL. Yes I get it now. Nice to see you on here. You will learn as I am sure you already have the ropes of this forum. Who has brains and who doesnt. The RR and Kern are the dope heads and a few others. Which who know what their on. Truckin is nice, he has his opinion, which is fine. And Con_tiki, you will know the real one. The fake one is on crack. Good luck and hope to see you around alot. And you are from Ashland? I was there a back around thanksgiving. At the towncenter mall. you near there?

Interesting. But why would Nissan want chrysler? I don't see anything besides maybe the caravan and ram pickups that would appeal to nissan.

Thanks for the kind words Michael. I'm on business the next few days (ISP at hotel says Greenville, NC) and I have a Grand Prix GXP V8 rental car....I blew the front wheels off of it at many redlights and even dusted off an Eclipse GS-T. I never thought a front-heavy torque steering FWD car could be so fun, but with 335ft-lbs this thing is a riot. Lucky for me I get to turn it back in Friday. How was the Aussie trip?
