Honda Accord - Generation 7.1 (2003-2006)

HONDA ACCORD (2003-2006)

The second year where the rest of the world gets an Accord different from Japan, the seventh generation model has more room than the model it replaced. Initially, two variants with 2.0 engines were made available but a 2004 update receives a revised variant level with 2.4 and 3.0 powerplants being standard.
