C63 is bad ass, especially the Black edition. The Accord is nice looking. One hauls groceries, one hauls ass But the profiles are very similar--I think the current C63 has been out longer than the current Accord...? I'm not sure

Btw the C63 has been out since 08 but the coupe was literally just released a couple months ago.

Noticed the accord this morning on the way in to work. Thought it was similar to the C63 because MB has been running the same ad on TV for the coupe for months. Middle age guy driving.

The Accord coupe is cheaper and a damn sight more reliable. I have a Red coupe just like that one in stock.

What's sad is that you think so.

Chances are that the Merc was in the design stages long before the Accord coupe was Shitaki's wet dream.

Especially, this comparison, the rear profile on the accord is more aggressive looking, the wheels are better looking, and hell I'd be willing to bet the Honda is a better made car all around.
