No engine noise - that's for sure, do they even have horse power ratings? That noise you are not hear is = to the power you are missing
No ignition key location confusion issues - umm, how do you mean? OH the other side... I thought the key was SO BIG you couldn't loose it, or maybe when you whistle it beeps at you.
Glove compartment - Tim, You got gloves? Sh*t that thing is just a place for wife's to hide sh*t while you are not looking... brushes, make-up, napkins... then they want to use it while driving!!
Cup holders - Dont drink and drive, this is a no brainer.
Moon roof - I saw a moon in Tim's earlier post... little guy, pants down
Park it anywhere without worry - This is silly, The Honda has a higher theft rating than almost anything on the planet. That and in the sea of mall cars, they all look like a white Honda... no worry, take the closest one??
Gas mileage - P-cars get gas milage too, heck even my Suburban gets gas milage... silly reason
Decent sounding stereo - Porsche stereo's dont sound good because no one wants to listen to anything other than that beautiful flat 6 out back.
Hate to be a pooper Tim, Its a great car, but who cares
(I hope you know I am just busting your chops a bit, surely no hurtful comments intended)

Well, at least my 996 had a glove compartment!
BTW - the Honda stereo is not as good as the Porsche's stereo.

Before I get branded as a snob....just for the record, I do like the looks of the new Accord coupe, but I like my P car better...and here is why...just for the boys

I am sure that are many more pictures of beautiful women next to a Porsche than an Accord.

I mean there are a lot more Accords to take pictures with AND many of the people "wiling" to take the type of pictures we are talking about are just regular people. So it stands to reason that there might be more pictures of girls and Honda's then with P-cars or other exotics
Tim ? Are you holding out on us ?

Sorry Tim... 
And BTW I don't mean to offend anyone with a Subaru or Subaru fans... Hey at least most of their cars have real boxer engines, they kick butt at rallies, and with the right skills they can be butt magnets as well...

With the following evidence, I would recommend Tim to consider putting more "performance" stickers on his Accord, do Lambo doors, and "tune" it up a notch after a visit to Pep Boys as a means to attract more talent...
