  • Honda Accord UK (2003 - 2008) - Honda Accord 2.4i EX Auto driving experiences 10 May 2009 (Forum)
    My wife would like an Auto I've recently test driven a 2.4 EX auto accord (outgoing model) and on the surface my problems are solved, however, I'm worried that the 2.4 feels gutless on the motorway by comparison and I've read stuff that seems to imply that the EX comes with a sports suspension, although the EX definitely felt softer on a test drive. Has anyone had any experience of drive a 2.4i EX auto on the motorway for extended periods of time. Does it end up feeling like hard work because the 2.4 needs to be reved? I know the answer to a lot of this is to test drive the car and I have done that but I'm still undecided and would like to hear from 2.4 EX auto drivers.
