2007 Honda Accord V6 Manual: Long Distance Traveler

Hello everyone,
In this episode we meet Austin and his very clean 7th gen Accord coupe! Austin's first car was a 7th gen Accord and he set out to find the most rare spec this generation has to offer. After a few months and traveling up to Northen Cali he found the gem he wanted. He has done a wonderful job on upgrading key components while keeping the car reliable. Awesome to see that someone took interests in this awesome chassis. Although Austin seems to have been finish with his view of the project, only time will tell if he will continue to build it. I sure hope he keeps it! Thank you Austin and everyone who supports the channel! #automotiveanatomy

Have an 06 Accord sedan now after owning 7 of these 6-speeds, 5 being coupes. This is one of the most reliable vehicles built to date & the last of the real Accord’s with double wishbone suspension. There are multiple people with over 900k on the 6-speeds with the original engine.

[@roon1953]

Mines got 170k miles on original clutch, and still chirping 3rd gear

[@ElCrab]

You’d be surprised at the gas mileage these J30 V6s get. When mine was brand new I immediately took it on a road trip, and she got 34 MPG on the highway, 70-80 MPH and AC on full blast. Even now, she gets 30-31 MPG on my road trips, which is what I mainly use her for anymore.

[@richbrake9910]

wow. Just one thing though. The 07 has the J-32 engine.

not true btw guys claiming hes getting mpg than the 4 cylinder lmfaooo 🤡

[@platnum960]

Never thought id see a 7th gen on here....CITY BOYS WE UP!!!😂

[@JMRSplatt]

The 7th gen, specifically 06-07 and EX-L, is the perfect combination of modern features and classic style interior. Things like push button start and button parking brake are not present, however the interior is extremely comfortable and full of features for driving. Cruise, heated seats, sunroof, leather, and others.. makes the car one of the last best cars of our modern times. Now everything is plastic plastic plastic, CVT transmissions everywhere, and electric buttons for everything. Technology is great, I love it, but some things don't belong in a car.

[@pearlcoupe]

I like how you mentioned towards the end that the car is the perfect period between performance and nostalgia. Good food for thought. With that being said, I enjoyed this video that was different from the sea of Civics and Integras.

LAST YEAR I PICKED UP 04 Accord coupe V6 6-speed HFP with the full hfp kit from my uncle who is the original owner less than 60k hfp front and rear lips hfp side skirts lowered HFP Wheels cold air intake full exhaust and j pipe PRECAT DELETES 3.7 INTAKE MANIFOLD AND THROTTLE BODY AND THROTTLE BODY SPACER all leather interior heated seats it's a perfect daily I've never been a fan of the Accords but I really like this generation especially when you have the hfp front lip rear lip side skirts wheel package on some nice suspension with the spoiler a completely changes the look of these and makes them way more aggressive compared to just a regular Coupe or the regular sedans they're very hard to come by I've even had my local Honda dealership try to buy it off of me multiple times because of the low mileage and I work at a shop so every single piece of maintenance has been gone through on this car top to bottom front to back belts hoses gaskets seals spark plugs ignition coils fuel injectors fuel pump every piece of suspension ball joints control arms tie rods axles wheel bearings you name it brakes tires upgraded you name it it's been done and with full bolt ons and a tune on hondata with the Acura TL type S ECU for daily driver it gets down I've pissed off a lot of V8 mustangs that are prior to 2012 pretty much any V8 with 300 horsepower Dodge charger RT'S and Challenger RT'S or even the newer 8th and 9th gen Accords with the 3.5 bolt ons eventually I've pulled on 350Z 370Z Audi S4 and a4's Subaru STI and Subaru WRX Civic SI RSX type s A lot of cars even for the smaller 3.0 when you do full bolts on these things and get it Dyno tuned it seriously wakes them up and it's perfect for a daily I plan to go 3.7 swap with the same full bolt ons and tune once this motor gets high miles and gets tiredand just keep it a perfect daily it's clean and simple brand new paint job Wheels lowered tastefully with the hfp kit And if I decide that it's not fast enough and I want more I go home and pull the fully built 95 Civic Coupe out of the garage that's a built k series with nothing but two seats and a roll cage Like I said was never a fan of Accords but something about this particular generation with the hfp kit in the coupe just look so aggressive I do like the 9th gen coupes with the hfp kit but the 7th gen are lighter and can look just as aggressive if not more than any of the other generations I built a lot of civics integras and a couple S2000s but these Accords are definitely special if you get the top model

“ see that’s why Accords are better than civics “ you said it not me ! 🤙🏻😂 Accord Gang Gang ! 😎🔥

[@VirtualGuth]

Well done. Clearly there was a lot of thought and common sense applied to this build. That fact that this car remains reliable after 200K+ miles is the icing on the cake. The end result looks very clean, much nicer than most cars I see that are loaded full of mismatched aftermarket stuff where the owner clearly didn't have a vision of what they were trying to accomplish. In addition, despite the impressive level of performance the current CTR offers, to my eye, this Accord Coupe is definitely the better looking car.

[@assassin_asa]

Took me 3 years to get an 07 sedan 6 speed with no rust and under 100k miles..... it was leather with sunroof and had every option except for auto headlights and Navi, and im glad it didn't have Navi Upgraded the full sound system and done a few mods, used the aftermarket radio adapter by PAC to keep it nice.... when I bought it, it had wheels with a recipt to prove they were bought just 5k miles prior, and I love everything about it so far

[@automotivetv9861]

Had the same car with the Auto, It was an 03 pre facelift, never had power steering nor did it have AC, still was my favorite car ever.

[@makan1568]

Great guy and beautiful Accord. I was searching Suzuki Kizashi but it’s really hard to find manual transmission so I think I’m gonna give up and focus on Honda Accord Coupe 7 gen. It a little piece of art to be honest. Especially this one from this video. Everything keeps so clean and nicely done.

[@AutomotiveAnatomy]

Couldn't agree more!

[@richbrake9910]

The seventh gen is one of the best Hondas and vehicles built to date, particularly the 06 and 07...

[@vickramos9234]

I actually got an 05 v6 manual almost a year ago to replace my Toyota chaser as a daily and didn’t think much of it, got it from an older couple for $1000 the car had been sitting for like 10 or 12 years and only has 50k miles on it, and over the past couple months it’s started growing on me as something I might want to modify

[@fsega3669]

Awesome car for sure! One of the best features that this model coupe has is the fact that it looks like it has a lower roof which makes it look sportier compared to its older and newer counterparts and from the side the car slopes down like an F1 car! Also like you said the car Is not old and not too new...

[@crisnmaryfam7344]

17:10 A Throw back to the way they embossed (is that the right word?) the word Integra on the bumpers of them back in the day.

[@kaibaumgartner7721]

You can also swap a magnesium intake manifold from an accord hybrid 05-06 or a 05-07 Odyssey EX-L to save about 12lbs and has way less heatsoak compared to the factory aluminum one. For 6-6 guys the Hybrid manifold has the butterfly valves in the top plate like factory so that’s the one I did. Just have to drill out a vac port for the vacuum mount since the hybrid has auto stop and doesn’t have a port.

[@christopherhale5445]
