Hey Misha, I have same CL9 year 2006 but Type S and ECU reflash done to it. Without ECU reflash that car is lazy as hell. Now around 205hp, 230nm, redline 8000rpm, vtec kicks at 4500rpm not at original 6000rpm, Bilstein suspension , ported intake, 18" wheel, upgraded brakes. If you're interested I'm in! :) greetings from Croatia!
Those were the Acura TSX in the US, the US spec Accord was completely different and was larger. I love the car though. I worked at an Acura dealer when those were new and they were my favorite car, especially with the 6 speed. Comfortable, good handling, smooth power, and a great radio.
It’s a ‘Honda’ - torque doesn’t exist. -Misha 😂 Always likes that shape of Accord. Cool car, cool owner. I love seeing how much fun you can have with such little power!
This guy is in the spanish accord group and we are loving it! Thanks Misha! These cars are so underrated. K24, double wishbone front and rear with 5 control arms, 1400kg and way cheaper than a type R. The perfect daily for car enthusiast!
I absolutely love this kind of footage we don't all need to see 1000bhp hypercars on sticky rubber and costing more than a third world country debt to actually enjoy the sheer pleasure of driving 😊.
Nice, I have an 09 civic SI that I supercharged in 14, still have it, even though it's in the garage most of the time now. Very reliable engines. I haven't really touched it since I did that work, besides oil changes. The belt I installed has 100k miles on it now and is finally slipping. So it's time for love soon.
@@hassanae8047 no internal mods. Fuel rail, headers, no cat. Borla cat back exhaust. 750cc injectors, cold air intake. Put videos on UA-cam years ago. Pretty sure it’s called supercharged tsx night run. Another on at the track and at the Dyno
honda allways knew how to make a cars controls (shifter, steering, pedal positions) feel good. never had any problems with heel toe in any honda i drove.
TSX gang! So glad to see my daily driver finally get to get lapped around the ring by the man himself!!! Love the k24 on this platform, handles so great❤
I have the 2.0 basemodel Wagon version of this with exhaust + reflash, Lighter than this Executive trim sedan and gets to about 15hp less (175 crank with reflash + exhaust vs 2.4 190hp) than the untuned 2.4's. Turbo is on the way, but slowly
I own this 7gen. but it's a TypeS with ECU reflash and headers. Runs at about 225ish hp, with a 6.9sec to 100km/h as a side reference, with VTEC running from @4800rpm. The car is a lego to upgrade, depending how much money you want to spend. Easy to extract more hp from that K24A3 engine. But having hydraulic steering with great feedback, great shifter, double wishbone as a stock car...it was a comfy sedan built by maniac japanese engineers. The guys from the romanian group of Accord owners are crying because these machines are a dying breed... Misha, you have to find a modded one to drive. You're going to fall in love with yet another Honda. It's great fun. Cheers!
@@honda_maniac Hello! I think the reflash club software is beeter, lower vtec zone from 4k and higer rev limiter at 8k, the fuel consumption still very good.
Wow. Never thought I'd see one of these on here. I have one of these in manual as well and have owned it for over 10 years. It saw me through uni and I ended up keeping it. I daily a Camry Hybrid (lol) and weekend MK7 Gti. These CL9s in stock form aren't super quick, the gearing is way too long. The best mod setup people do for these to bring them to life are - Intake, headers, exhaust, tune, intake manifold, maybe throttle body from the TSX, K20 head if you have the money, DC5 box and LSD. Headers, tune and intake make the biggest difference. Would love to see Misha take a modified one for a lap
awesome to see how much the NB gains in corners, so glad they finally made it flawless with the ND2 CL9 is a great sedan, especially the rear lights are so elegant
Gotta be one of the most enjoyable Misha laps I've seen in a while! Genuine good times, great car, great owner and great driving! The mis-shift climax was hilarious, seeing owner throw hands up 😅 good stuff!
Just got one of these for my Daughter to learn in, I had one new back in the day in RHD, one of the greatest bonds I've had with a car second only to my EF9 SiR, what a car...
I owned one of these for many years. Fantastic car. Sadly sold out though due to recurring rust issues on the rear wheel arches and my growing family who needed a bigger car. Mechanically, it was solid and a great drive. Nice to see a real driver testing the limits 👍
Mischa showing us how much fun there can be had on the 'Ring even without an expensive racecar or hypercar! :D This was really heartwarming and I love the MX5 gang!
Damn that vibe @5:50 is the definition of "getting back on your horse". Interesting to see on camera and respect for sendig it again through that corner ❤
CL and CU are the best budget sedans. extremely reliable and efficient NA engines and double wishbone suspension had no competition at that price point
honestly pretty impressive lap for what the car is. Honda truly had a great recipe for reliable, practical and fun cars. Shame theyve lost that charm in recent years
I love how a K24 accord is slowish but when you put the same engine with a short transmission on a much lighter civic you get a same era WTCC performance like car 🤣 It's like, it's always Weight and Gear ratio that kill 99% of cars potential
It's not that. Short gear and weight give it the final crispy punch, but the real lack of performance is because it's SO downgrade from factory... Starting for the garbage stock map, restricted nd long intake, 60mm TB, a low-mid focused intake manifold that chocked in highs, 25°vtc, intake cam that chocked in highs too, catalytic, and a ridiculous 2" exhaust... Fixing all that you have 260hp that still have long gearing and a heavy flywheel but the car is a beast too
I've had an accord myself. What this car needs is an intake, full exhaust, and an ecu reflash. These three mods really liven up the car and make it more enjoyable.
The issue is it doesn't have anywhere near that 190 out of VTEC, which only comes in way too late (6grand). Mine with headers and intake, pre-tune, was 170 HP before VTEC kicks in. 220 when it did... So given the fact that with its long gears you're most of the time outside of VTEC, its not going to go very fast.
Fun times. Over here it was an Acura TSX. Was a great handling car out of the box. Only wished they had sold a Type S version with a hotter version of the K24, didn't have that K20 top end scream.
@@volvo09 test drove on before getting my RSX-S. Loved it, but really wanted that top end scream. Still makes me giggle. RSX-S handles like shit out of the box though IMO.
6:40 - Misha starts talking about the quality of the car at twenty years old and the NB's ears start to burn, so he slides in behind. 😂 Heard you like twenty year old performance cars, eh? A man of taste, I see!
I remember looking at this shape accord over 15 years ago as a second hand buy. Loved the look of them. I got lucky and was offered a company car but this and the then current Mazda 6 were definitely on the shortlist.
7:47 the moment Misha realized... he's got a pair of headlights in the rearview mirror 😅 shoulda asked the passenger to roll down window with a shovel and start rowing for extra acceleration 🤣
I liked this car much more with the 2.2 CTDi 140Cv engine compared to the one I bought Renault Megane Sedan 1.9DCi 120Cv, but the economic difference exceeded my budget. I really enjoyed seeing the lap, thanks guys.
just got my second accord, first being diesel which i modiefied with ysr coilovers and stage 1 map. great fun but not ive got a k24 type s with custom exhaust including manifold and a reflash and honeslty its quicker than i thought it would be! had a stage 2 focus st 2.5t and honestly doesnt feel much slower, but its way more fun! love these cars, the accords just handle so beautifully in the corners, love the feeling of the back end slightly moving out just to let you know your on the edge of the grip :p
Glad ive got a 2006 accord, cant wait to take mine out on track, mine is factory 4wd and the handling on it is crazy, it loves the corners and has zero body roll considering it sits twice as high as a fwd accord, its like it wants to be pushed to maximum on corners and it does it effortlessly, like i can take a corner thats 50kmh i can it at 120kmh or even a 25kmh corner i can take it at like 70kmh
What that car needs, is stripped back seats, front racing, everything accessory wise stripped, sunroof covered and a honda rsx head built on to your motor and that's an accord touring car then!
The issue with the K24A3 in its stock config is that ridiculously high VTEC engagement (6000rpm, 7200fuel cutoff) and long gear ratio's in this CL9 Accord. (CL7 Euro R has better ratios). So with every shift you go outside of VTEC range. An intake, exhaust and VTC gear, with a tune to lower VTEC and you absolutely transform the car. Mine picked up 40 horsepower in the 3000-5000rpm range from a couple hundred euro's of mods and a tune. Truely doing yourself a disservice keeping these stock... Also, VMAX means above 220kph the engine will start to throttle itself. You really, really have to get these tuned...
You need to drive a modded one @misha. They are fantastic. K24 is really great, and the accord chassis also. Try to get a full bolt-on one, the flash makes a big difference. The standard car's vtec only engages around 6k.. the flash brings it down the 4-4.5k region
I miss mine a lot....:(. Don't know why I sold it and converted to BMW/Check Engine light world :D. Also mine was very tastefully modded for the track I would say. It had shocks and springs, camber arms, thicker rear antiroll bar, better brakes(ATR twin pots with ferodo DS2500 etc.), short shifter, intake manifold and some other breathing mods. Also had very nice wheels OZ Supperlegera R17 8J.
I got a wagon k24 with 300.000km and it still does 220km/h fairly easy. The k24 pulls strong but the long gearing is the sadest thing and only 1200rpm vtec but otherwise it's a damn good fun car to drive and with lot's of comfort. Very good daily driver car!
Its too bad you guys never got the J30-J37 V6 in Europe. Great engine, even more reliable and makes some power, best of all, super cheap as its a sohc vtec engine. You can swap em into the Acura TSX (Euro Accord) and get to 300whp with not much trouble without revving it to the moon and giving it some torque. Wont sound like a bunch of bees in the exhaust! Also the K24's for the refresh version of this car is stellar, great base with lots of room for mods. Really not hard to get it to 250whp and revs out to 8k Thanks for the vid sir great driving as always! Something about driving a slow car balls to the wall I find is more intriguing than the high hp cars
I also really appreciate non English speakers speaking English for the channel. It's a hidden benefit for many of us.

What brake update you did? I have the same car
Drilled Zimmerman rotors, ate ceramic brake pads, HEL braided steel lines, dot 5.1. it's daily, not track oriented car
@@superfly2309 nice
The best looking Accord they ever made. The facelift version with 205hp is great. Doesn’t take much to get them to 240hp
50deg intake cam gear, later TSX or aftermarket cams and a reflash to bring VTEC online around 5000 rpm and a K20 intake manifold
Those were the Acura TSX in the US, the US spec Accord was completely different and was larger.
I love the car though. I worked at an Acura dealer when those were new and they were my favorite car, especially with the 6 speed.
Comfortable, good handling, smooth power, and a great radio.
They never had more than 190hp. Only usa tsx had 205h@@chapel976
Called the Accord Euro in Australia. Great cars. Just under 200hp stock.
Nah, I've had that model, I have the 2010 and it's way better looking. Big arches and just a much better stance even standard
It’s a ‘Honda’ - torque doesn’t exist.
-Misha 😂
Always likes that shape of Accord. Cool car, cool owner.
I love seeing how much fun you can have with such little power!
In US that's an Acura TSX.
It uses accord parts@@Flying_Lexus
With a few cheap mods it can easily get 280nm, but yeah. It's a naturally aspirated engine...

Driving slow cars fast, favourite concept🤘
This generation of Accords will never stop looking like they are designs from the future, timeless look.

The issue with the K24A3 in its stock config is that ridiculously high VTEC engagement (6000rpm, 7200fuel cutoff) and long gear ratio's in this CL9 Accord. (CL7 Euro R has better ratios).
So with every shift you go outside of VTEC range. An intake, exhaust and VTC gear, with a tune to lower VTEC and you absolutely transform the car.
Mine picked up 40 horsepower in the 3000-5000rpm range from a couple hundred euro's of mods and a tune. Truely doing yourself a disservice keeping these stock...
Also, VMAX means above 220kph the engine will start to throttle itself. You really, really have to get these tuned...
Misha enjoy this lap more then any other super car i ve seen him drive lol . very nice .
I wish we got these in the US, easily my favourite generation accord, and the euro R is awesome
I love this Honda ACCORD saloon❤
Torque = 223 Nm (22.7 mkg) at 4.500 rpm (190 CV at 6.800rpm - Max = 7.400 rpm).
It needed a reflash tune at minimum but still good to see a cl9 on the ring
Owner should do a littlebo ecu reflash and fit an intake and your car will be perfect daily around city, highway.and country road.
ENORME ANTONIOOOO!!!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
this car is practically the same as mine! its great seeing such a common car raced, i personally mod mine and race it a lot

We have the J30 of 6 gen Accord, but only in automatic...
I like this owner
lmaoo the mx5 and k24 was to funny seeing each other side by side
Nice, well sorted car. Perfectly driven 😊
I wish we got the accord type R/ Type S in the United states. These cars are absolutely amazing!
Had a CL7 and CM1 Wagon , these cars are just too good 🤌
Thr battle with the MX5 looked fun!
