Honda Factory Performance is expanding its lineup with the addition of an all-new, dealer-installed performance package for the 2003 Honda Accord V-6 Coupe and expanded availability of the Civic Coupe FP to dealerships nationwide. Both packages feature a high performance sport-tuned suspension with recalibrated shocks and springs, new wheels and tires, and an aerodynamic rear spoiler and lower body kit.

Accentuating the Accord Coupe FP are:

• High performance pre-assembled springs that reduce the ride height by one-inch and lower the Accord's roll center
• High performance shock absorbers tuned for enhanced road handling characteristics
• 17-inch high performance 215/50VR-17 Yokohama tires (AT models only; standard on MT models)
• Full aerodynamic under-body kit (front, sides and rear)
• Rear wing spoiler
• Factory Performance interior and exterior badging

The Accord FP package can be installed on any new 2003 Accord V-6 Coupe (manual or automatic transmissions) and must be installed by a Honda dealership.

The Honda FP package carries the same 3-year/36,000 mile warranty as all Honda Accessory equipment and does not affect the factory warranty. An additional benefit is the ability to include the cost of the FP package in new vehicle financing arrangements.

Suggested retail pricing for the Accord Factory Performance package, not including installation costs, starts at $4,204 for AT versions and $3,492 for MT versions.
