Neither.

Slightly used e46 m3 for the same price as either of those with better performance, luxury, and looks.

If fuel economy is important for you, I'd be weary of the accord.

how many km have you driven? Maybe the engine hasn't boken in yet..

Out of those two? Accord Coupe.

For my money? Loaded Genesis V6 coupe or base 370z.

Yea i have no idea either, the above poster says they are getting 540km for city driving with the same car. The dealer said they don't see anything wrong. Also, I have about 17,000 km on it already so I would imagine it has broken in.

Any ideas what could be wrong? Like i said, I am a very conservative driver with a light foot.
