You get out of a civic, get back in your 6th gen accord, and appreciate the quality. +1
You drive a new car with an electric throttle, get back in your 6th gen and love the immediate response from the gas pedal. I realized this in my dad's E46, but I'd have to drive a pre facelift (ie before 2002) E46, as in 2003 they changed to drive by wire.
You drive a new car and get back in your 6th gen and realize everything in the car is well placed, and the view is perfect. Maybe because we're used to it, but some stuff can be a stretch. I like how in BMW's they dash is angled towards the driver. Perfect.
