Do Hondas sit low?
Is the seating in Honda lower than comparable sedans?
My brother's father-in-law claims it's harder to get into / out-of Hondas than similar cars. He's on his 2nd Accord. Of course, he's an old fart, 70s, so that might have something to do with it. I'm a middle-aged fart, 49, so the issue is not devoid of concern for me. What do you owners think? Pete

Re: Do Hondas sit low?
My parents whine about it sometimes, but i remember when I
bought my civic, it seemed high! Thats because I traded in with a 1985 Nissan 200sx, which was a lot lower. Kinda miss my old Nissan rust bucket, I wish I had kept it as a rally car or something. Then again, maybe I'll stick with my civic....  t

Re: Do Hondas sit low?
The new Accord has a much higher seating position. Personally, I prefer the
older model in which the seating position is closer to the floor. The last time I tried to get into a 2004 Accord coupe, I whacked my head against the roof frame... There's no f**ing head room in that car and the high seating position isn't helping.
