Hey guys my name is Eric and I'm from the South County area. I have owned 3 VW's in my life, and I currently drive a slightly moded MKIV GTI. I love it, but I just inhereited some money and I am thinking fun, but practical. I am thinking about a 2010 Accord Coupe V6 Manual with technology package. Anybody drive one or have any encounters with one?

Welcome. Get the accord. The only accord I've ever driven is a 93 five speed, but it shifted amazing and drove like a million bucks, so I'm sure the new ones are the same.

The Honda 6 cylinder is not bad, but it's not special either.

Though it's reliable and provides decent MPG, most reviews call it a middle of the line performer. I have never heard it described as being fun to drive.

The Honda 4 cylinder comes in a high reving engine, ie..SI

Well the specs for the V6 coupe 6 speed are 0 t0 60 in 5.9.....that's like .2 seconds faster than my chipped GTI which is a bat outta Hell haha

Oh I love my GTI to death, and Volkswagens in general. I'm am definitely getting a new car. That's for sure. And I know a Honda will last me forever and I'm not going to run into the problems I've had with VW.
