2006 Honda Accord front

Honda never gives a face-lift two years in a row, but never say never. It's actually more of a butt-lift, as the Accord now resembles a Pontiac Grand Prix from the back. There are no mechanical changes, as America's favorite family sedan still comes with a 2.4-liter 4-cylinder engine (now uprated at 166 horsepower), a 3.0-liter V6 (now up to 244), 2-and-4-door body styles, and a hybrid edition that just ran away with Kelley Blue Book's Best Resale Value award. A minority of consumers will be ecstatic that the Accord sedan can now combine the V6 engine with the 6-speed manual transmission.
