Hi,
I've been considering an Accord coupe for my next car, and I'm at the point that I need an automatic transmission instead of a manual. I tend to like the rear styling of the 2003 to 2005 model years better than the 2006 & 2007s, but I'm hesitant buying the earlier ones because I notice a whole lot of problems with the automatics from those years. (Carcomplaints.com) I was wondering: if I did get a 2003-2005 model and the auto transmission DID die, would it would be possible to switch the older transmission out and replace it with a newer one from the 2006-2007 models that seem to have far less problems? With the searching I've done, it seems that 2003-2004-2005 auto transmissions are all interchangeable, but I can't seem to find definite proof that the 2006 and 2007 auto transmissions will swap in too. Could someone help me out with that? A definite YES or NO, one way or the other? I would appreciate any help you might be able to give. I realize another option would be to buy one of the newer ones and do a trunk/bumper/tail light conversion; but before I would consider that, I want to weigh my options and see what might be a better deal for me.

Thank you!
