Honda Cars : EGMCarTech: Let’s Talk Numbers: Honda Accord Coupe EX-L V6 vs. Nissan Altima Coupe 3.5 SR V6 | 2013 New Honda Car Reviews 0

Our senior editor Chris Chin recently went out and leased a 2011 Honda Accord Coupe V6. Coming out of owning a used Jaguar X308 XJ8 (which he only owned for a couple of months after swearing to keep the car for a lifetime), Chris found himself in an Accord Coupe V6 with a manual transmission. How does he like? Well, he’s put together a review for you guys (which will be published tomorrow) and has promised to provide monthly updates during his ownership of the vehicle.

Either way, I thought it would be nice to have a ‘Let’s Talk Numbers’ war with the 2011 Honda Accord Coupe V6 against its closest rival before we publish the review tomorrow. Here is the 2011 Honda Accord Coupe V6 vs. the 2011 Nissan Altima Coupe V6.
