You have to keep in mind what was standard for this car class in the late 90’s/early 2000’s. A lot of the features around today (i.e. cooled seats) were either not around or not found in this class at the time.

This is what I think Honda could have conceivably offered but didn’t.

Heated seats for US models
Manual trans option for V6
Optional lip kit for 01-02 coupes and 98-02 sedans
More interior schemes for trim/materials
Better audio
Compass/temp display in rear view mirror
More motor options
Full size spare
Remote start
Auto up/down for both driver/passenger windows
Real leather would have been nice. :lawl:

rear center console like the CL has
Anybody for V6 6 speed?
These. It's funny how similar, yet dissimilar, the 6GA and CL are.

Oh, and a rear window wiper. ← Dear 6gen coupe owners, don't you ever wish for that??

When listening to music, I wish my factory steering wheel-mounted audio controls had a "previous track button".
I second the "back" button on the wheel controls.

On the subject of rear wipers, I'm wondering if it's possible. The USDM 5GA did NOT come with a rear wiper, however, a whole lot of them overseas (Japan, Malaysia, etc) DID come with rear wiper. Makes you wonder how hard it'd be to make it happen on ours.

Lip kits, trims, and audio are meh. Aside from better quality speakers, which can be replaced now anyway, I think the factory system is alright. An OEM 0102 coupe-specific lip kit would've been nice but ill settle for the BRv2. And I think the trims are alright as well. A better color scheme mightve made it better though. I don't mind the tan but my tan/brown dash is kinda odd. It could be worse. The 4GA interior colors included red and blue. :puke:

Definitely auto up/down for passenger window
AND yes, auto up/down for both is an option I've not only always wanted but I never understood why they did JUST the driver side. I mean, I get, we use drive-thrus, hence why they call it "express down" but what about express up? Or why couldn't my passenger enjoy the same down feature? Doesn't make sense. And again, it's now a feature that, with the aid of an aftermarket device, is possible.

Constant power to the factory cigarette outlet. Can't charge cell phone with key out of ignition.

Ugh, this! Mine won't charge unless the car is ON. Not ACC--on.

This, too. Think it might just be a coupe thing...? The sunroof in my 4G sedan went ALLLL the way back.

You guys know you could make it charge with the car off pretty easily right? :lawl:

Like it would take 15 minutes
