    Maintenance wise, the Accord parts are more expensive than a Civic, the annual registration of the Accord is heavier than a Civic, finally your mags from your Civic will not fit the Accord, the offset is different. That's all what I can think off, hope this helps.

    the accord is a different class of car altogether. its a midsize sedan, your civic is a compact. bigger parts = bigger engine = bigger cost to operate.

    kung malaking issue sa iyo ang fuel economy, best to just dress up you civic.

    kung mas malaking issue sa iyo ang ride quality (like me, mas gusto ko ang ride quality kesa factory claimed fuel economy... marami naman paraan para tumpid ang consumo ng japanese cars eh) - maganda talaga ang accord.

    i hear the VTI-S 2001 CIVIC comes with a 1.7L engine... if performance is all you need, i suggest you look at this model muna before going for the accord. maluwag ito sa loob (i own one, hehe). sinabi lang daw ng honda phil na 1.6L para makahabol sa tax bracket, but the engine code suggests its a true 1.7L. honestly, i can't tell the diff between my 1.6L VTi and my '03 VTi-S when just plain driving. parang mas pino lang acceleration ng '01 kesa '99. oh, and mas tahimik sa loob ang mga '01 models.

    keep the civic. cost of owning (cost of everything) is cheaper than the accord. you rims will not fit the accord since mas malayo ang studs ng accord.
