Dropping new features on daily basis, we see all kinds of stuff. One of the cars that we see least of are these 6th gen Accords. We can probably only think of a handful that do what we do, properly. This particular one being one of the finer examples. It belongs to our buddy Luis Alexis out of Yonkers, New York where your typical pothole is deep enough to swallow most of that fancy CCW wheel. But that’s not the point. The point is that Luis has taken your rather “plain looking” sedan and transformed it into a serious neck breaker. Take a look at these awesome photos that our friend Phil Fusco shot.

Luis drove the car slammed on stock wheels for a about a year before he decided to change peoples perspective of Accords. So just what did it take to accomplish that? For starters, under the hood it’s got a H23 Vtec motor with bisimoto headers that was tuned with a Hondata S300. It now pushes a bit over 210WHP and makes for a fun daily commuter. Interior features a nardi wood grain steering wheel and nardi wood grain shift knob (which you can see pictures of on the bottom of this post) as well as something we found extremely awesome. A pair of Porsche GT3 bucket seats! How cool is that?
Front bumper and hood came from a a 1998 Honda Accord and features a discontinued (and somewhat rare nowadays) OEM front lip. Now we don’t know about you, but we thought for longest that this thing was bagged, but it’s actually not. It sits on Function&Form Type 2.5 coilovers just millimeters off the ground and is rocking a pair of quite fancy shoes. They’re obviously CCW’s sized at 18×10 in the rear with +25 offset and 18×9.5 in the front with +15 offset. Hit the Read More button for more photos!
When we asked Luis what his future plans are, he told us that a new set of shoes will be coming first. A more aggressive SSR SP3 set to be exact. Whatever he does we will keep an eye out on and report back to you guys. Huge shout out to our friend Phil Fusco for hooking us up with the photos and of course Luis Alexis. Make sure you email us at snfeatures@gmail.com if you think your car has what it takes. In the meantime, we’ll see you all over on our facebook page & forums!
