I've got a 2000 Prelude 5 spd w/ 82K on it now. By next spring, I'll be thinking about a new car. The Accord 6 spd coupe sounds sweet to me right now, but I'm wondering if I'll be disappointed in the handling of the Accord coupe vs the Prelude. From what I've read so far, it looks like the '04 TL in 6 spd version is going to be available with suspension upgrades compared to the automatic (and '03) TL's. Can the Accord coupe be upgraded using shocks, springs, sways and tires to handle as well or better than the Prelude? How much would this cost? I don't want to invest a whole lot of money in this. Also I want to stick to Honda original equipment parts NOT aftermarket.
Anyone have any info?? Here's a chart to fill out if you can (or if you feel like):

PRELUDE SPRING SHOCK RATE SWAY BAR DIAMETER WHEEL 7 TIRE DIAM


ACCORD " " " "

04 TL " " " "

Any chance that Honda will offer or equip the Accord coupe with any good handling pieces for '04??

Thanks

 

ST makes a rear bar for the 03 accord
so i am sure there is going to be support in the aftermarket scene...
