What I mean is that since you bought the car used, the first owner could have deleted the chrome trim. It wasn't sold new with black trim.

Sold new in early Oct 2017 from a dealership in CT. Traded mid Dec 2017 to the local Honda dealer here in Auburn. 5,900 miles. Excellent condition. The dealer is up on a hill overlooking Rt. 20, so you only see the front line of cars, so it had much cookie-loos when you drove up to the front, but with this color, few takers.

Wife and I were going in that week to look (and buy) at a new Accord, but saw this on their used inventory on the web...that changed what we were thinking of getting right there....still need a new daily driver later this year when the Ford Fusion reaches its end (2006, 195k, soon to need a full exhaust, plenty of dings and small scratahes), and we like the Accords, but I can be swayed by a Civic Touring when that time comes...

one other thing that i'm pretty disappointed about is the lack of BLIS (blind spot indicators), i'd much rather have those than the camera system.

I would prefer that as well, lanewatch is kinda silly. Also don't like how it's only one side. I have a good mirror setup so not a huge deal but still.

1. seatbelt is not adjustable
2. auto-dim rearview mirror not standard
3. lack of touch controls on the steering wheel (i got really used to my wife's 17 CR-V Touring with this feature and now miss it)

bonus complaint: while the Honda sensing camera on the pass. side is kinda cool and useful at times, it throws off the balance of the car, aesthetically.
Is that specific to the coupe? My sedan is adjustable.

They could have integrated the camera into the mirror housing instead of making it look like an afterthought.
