All with the navigation system. The Accord was the best value and I was surprised at how comparable it was to the more expensive TL and Avalon. The Accord will be replacing my Volvo S60 T4, and again, the Accord matched it in quality and is a better driving vehicle (smoother transmission, better ride). Initially I was only so-so with the rear end of the Accord. I ended up getting one in Graphite Pearl and added a lid spoiler which really gives the car a great look. It's amazing to me how different the lid spoiler makes the car look. The lid spoiler is the one that is flat and rests on the trunk, its not the spoiler that is raised off the trunk. I get many double takes from folks and, if not for the front grill, they say they wouldn't have thought it was an Accord. I was also unsure if the navigation system would be worth the additional $2K. This feature gives you much more than just a navigation system. It is more an onboard computer with voice activation features. You can control virtually everything with voice, touch screen or buttons and knobs. Very easy and fun to use. The Honda/Acura navigation system is best on the market.  Also considered: 2005 Acura TL 2005 Toyota Avalon 2005 Toyota Camry  Vehicle purchased: 2005 Honda Accord  About This Reviewer...  Location: Prospect, Kentucky  Other vehicles owned: 2004 Chevrolet Suburban 2002 Volvo S60  Review submitted: April 09, 2005 Is this review offensive or grossly inaccurate?
