Hmmm...we have a 2001 Accord EX 4-dr. Have not received any notice yet. Will have to check. Would be cool if they gave me a new steering wheel - the leather is getting a bit smooth. (probably just the inside part tho).

Actually, I'm hoping that my in-laws will sell us their 2002 Acura TL! My wife's Accord is in worse cosmetic shape than my '97 Civic.
