    Hello:

    About to purchase an Accord LX , and am trying to get all my ducks in order
    re pricing before I go to dealership.
    Very confusing.

    Edmunds is a great site, but for some reason does not have
    any prices for the options. Just says options aren't available for this
    model, but
    I know there are. Such as side air bags, auto trans., etc.

    a. is there a "better" site with more complete pricing, especially
    regarding options pricing ?

    b. also, Edmunds uses a descriptor of SRS, which I assume is supplemental
    restraint
    system, but what is PZEV ?

    c. also curious about what your opinions might be re 4 vs 6 cyl ?
    e.g., reliability, and potential life ? Can I expect them both to
    last as long ?

    d. the LX comes with 15" tires. Is it worth the hassle to go for the 16 "
    ones which their upscale Accords come with as st'd. ?
    better handling, or... with the 16" ?

    any thoughts on Acords vs Camry would also be appreciated.

    Much thanks,
    Bob

    Bob; I just went to Edmunds and found the problem. You need to scroll
    down further on the Accord listings. You will come to prices on
    Coupes, 4 doors, Sticks, LX's, Ex's, LX Autos, LX Autos with Side Air
    Bags, etc. It's there but I almost missed it too. Everyone I've talked
    to says the 4cyl. is plenty powerful and so does all the magazine
    reviews. Personally, if I had the choice of the 4 or a FREE V-6, I'd
    take the 4cyl. in a heartbeat! Both engines are very reliable. I think
    an Accord with a 5 speed Automatic and side air bags would be an
    absolutely awesome vehicle. I have a 99 Accord LX, 4cyl.Auto and it's
    great. I've heard the 2004's are outstanding! Good luck ed
