it has got 212bhp as standard though with room for improvement mate, so i'd be getting supercharger power for little money, Just not sure i can go back to 153 bhp after having 300 if you know what i mean :blink:

Bandit, I am in the same sort of price bracket as you!
There isn't much out there that will match a IS in terms of pride of ownership.
I'd have a look see if you can stretch to an Altezza, or have a look at a Subaru Legacy RS. You might get a cheap 200sx, but most of them are autos.
I like the accord, but not a fan of front wheel drive.
Your right though, you will miss the power of the skyline if you get a IS, they are slow! LOL!

Just had an insurance quote for the Accord Type R, not too bad at £239.39 for a standard car :thumbup1:

I know what you mean about the power mate but it is the only thing lacking on an IS and you do know them inside out:biggrin: like I said I do like the Accord just wouldn't have one myself but if we all liked the same thing etc. etc. and 212hp is decent power for a standard car and you'd also have the reliability thing aswell
