Howdy folks,
New here and yet to own an Accord, just trying to get an idea of what's possible with them.
So far from my research I've figured that the Type S is just a trim level, and they basically remove some toys from the Executive model and add the Type S bodykit and slightly different suspension instead, would this be correct? Also, I've seen that the exec comes with the 8 speaker 'superior' sound system as standard, but I've seen some Type S's with this advertised too, was this an optional extra on the Type S? Secondly, is the superior sound system found in the exec vastly better than that of the Type S?
Thirdly, if this is correct, is it a simple fix to attach the Type S bodykit to a 2.4 executive?
I'm basically after the toys from the exec with the looks of the Type S, and figured it would be easy to start with the exec as a base.
I've got up to £5k to spend on my Accord, so my logic is if the car costs me £3k I've still got a further £2k left to turn it into the car I want. I'll be lowering it either way, either with eibach springs, or the A Spec setup I've seen mentioned a few times.
Also, one last question, does anyone do any biking here? I'm into my MTB'ing and wonder if there's any chance of it fitting into the boot, if not, do people tend to use a bike rack that fits to the boot, or do they go for the roof bar option?
Sorry for all the questions!
