Owner:	Istas
Honda:	2005 Honda Accord EX

Fuel type:	gasoline
Transmission:	automatic
Curb weight:	3203 lbs
Coefficient of drag:	0.3
Frontal area:	23.8 sq.ft.
Instrumentation:	ScanGauge
Description:	The automatic may not be ideal for efficiency, but it is geared fairly tall for a 4-cylinder (2000 rpm gives about 62mph, 65 with the higher profile tires), and programmed to keep it in as high a gear as possible, so it performs quite admirably. It even downshifts pretty aggressively when braking hard downhill, even near highway speeds.
Build Thread:	Accord aero mods, 4.25% increase, more to come
Current Mods:	-short airdam -engine undertray -rear wheel skirts -upper grill block -lower grill partial block -sealed gaps around headlights and between quarter panels and bumper with silicone sealant -radiator fan indicator light -ScanGaugeII -smooth pizza-pan hubcaps -higher profile tires for 5% taller gearing -side mirror delete -2.5% frontal area Nut behind wheel adjusted, if that counts.
Planned Mods:	Though I still have it, I've lost interest in modding this car more since I've gotten the holy grail; a first-gen manual Insight.
