You don't need to hold the lock button, just press it. You can also hold down the unlock button after you've unlocked the car and it'll open the windows. Hold down the lock button to close them.

Now that I did NOT know! My old man's previous Accord had the window feature but you had to turn the key to close any open windows inc sunroof but this is pretty neat!

Good on you. It has down sides. But if you like it, and it feels a bit special, then it's you're cash, and enjoy! :cool: .

I guess I have not owned it long enough to "feel" the downsides but so far I can't see myself questioning any of them anytime soon ;)

Perhaps the only one I can think of is the gearbox feels more free (as in it has more travel) compared to the Hondas I have driven and owned but that's to be expected, I always knew the Honda gearboxes could not be matched for "feel" though.

Now that there is more light some better exterior pics.

I have to say the more I look at those alloys the more I actually like them! (though I will change them !) I also have a set of clear repeaters and indicators on order now.

i usually accept peoples personal opinions, but that one is terrible! the MV1's are horrible alloys, one of the worst i have seen on a new car in a long time!

I'm 50/50 on the wheels, can't say I love them, can't say I hate them. They're just "ok" imo.

Congrats!

Don't worry about what people say about 318's.

It's still a BM and it'll still drive fab! ;)

Agreed! the engine noise is pretty nice (of course not as nice as a 6cy but still very nice) and the pull (or push as it is ¬_¬) is also still very good for this class! my dv camera isn't accepting any dv8 tape I put in for some reason so once it's fixed I'll get a video up :)
 
One of the most overrated engine sounds in the world is the sound of the straight 6.

Forget about it - you're not missing out on anything remotely special.
