May 21, 200817 yr Does anyone know the differences between the Thai Spec and European Spec Accord . and has anyone driven the 3.5 v6 - what is it like and is it worth paying an extra 1.4 M baht more than the 2.4 ?
May 22, 200817 yr To answer the second part of your question, i would suggest you look at what the difference in cost is between the 2.4 and the 3.5 is a more "normal" market, such as in the UK. I can't be bothered i'm afraid, but it would be my guess that it's not that much. That would tell me all i need to know.
May 24, 200817 yr Author I thought that Honda made one model for the Asian & US market and a differently set up model for the European market - I have read reviews from Europe and wondered how different that car is to the one on sale in Thailand . I don't think the 3.5 model is on the market in Europe - so maybe designed more for the US ? I wonder why Honda are marketing it at such a huge price difference and wondered why anyone would buy it over the 2.4 .
May 24, 200817 yr Thai Honda is the American model, not European. I think it's bigger and more luxirious. No one buys 3.5l model, Honda has it only to boost its profile.
May 24, 200817 yr When I used to sell Japanese vehicles, I occasionally would take time to thumb through the parts list of a particular model; the variations from country to country were ENORMOUS....the books themselves would dwarf the bible. Each country has it's own regulations and taxation criteria. One major difference between the Thai model and the US would be that the steering wheel is on the other side!
