I looked at one yesterday while getting an oil change...Very nice!

I also looked at a 2013 Si coupe and I have to say *#&@ YOU HONDA! for not putting the carbon fiber dash or back up camera in the 12...

I agree. The new Accord is a very nice car. Congrats to Honda for being recognized for it. Very comfortable to sit in. I can't see myself trading my Si for one though.
 
Not a chance...I'd love to get one for my wife though, if I could get her to agree to trade hers in.
 
Nomar06 is rocking the accord now. He had an 8th si a year or so back.
