Default 03 - 07 differences?

Hey guys I am lookign to purchase a 03-07 2 Dr couple and I was wanting to know what changes were made between the years. I tried to search but couldnt really come up with much. I also need to know if there is anything I should look for in particular. I really want to find one with the HFP lip kit, but if not is there an accord forum that I can find them for sale? Honda wants a buttload for these things! Thanks

Yes, they do have DRL on the 06/07 cars.

Most of the changes to the G7 in 2006 MY are what Honda calls a Facelift MMC.

The changes will be small as far as operability goes, but they can be odious when buying some parts. For example, there is no HFP body kit for the 2006 Sedan, and only the front lip for the 2006 Coupe.

Both Sedan and Coupe got LED brake lights (*very* bright!) in 2006.

Perhaps the most talked about revision is that the 2006 6-6 cars have revised suspension bushings and revised spring rates, giving the cars a slightly sportier feel. The 2006/2007 6-6 cars, both Sedan and Coupe, also come with specific alloy wheels that look like the previous generation TL-S wheels.

There were also revisions to the HP ratings for 2006. The 3.0 J30 motor got a HP rating of 244 (Honda) Net Hp. However, on 93 octane after a few months, my own 6-6 dynos suspiciously close to that figure.

Anyway...the changes are small and mostly related to appearance.
