Fifth generation car suggestion?

I'm sure the Fourth Generation fans will come and declare that the 4th generation as the best of the Accords, given its achievements versus ccontemporary vehicles. Who is to disagree? As good as the 3rd generation was, the 4th generation presented a car that built upon how good the third generation was, albeit with substantially better materials. The fifth generation seems to get no love though.
It was a radical departure aesthetically, inside and out, and looked smaller than the previous 4th generation. When it first came out, I remember thinking that the doors had an expensive thunk sound to them. The cloth seats seemed much richer than those found in the fourth generation, and the interior materials to be much more pleasant and softer to the touch than the 4th generation. It had much more of a cosy, yet comfortable feel than the 4th generation. Not only was it comfortable, it drove well.
It wasn't thrashy, it didn't feel weezy. It didn't feel like a mid-size family car. It felt like a 30,000 car in a 20,000 car body. It had a silky smooth drivetrain, fantastic steering, and excellent composure over bumps. Smooth and solid are the words that come to mind when I think the fifth generation.
The 6th generation Accord, on the other hand, was pretty craptastic in terms of improving over the previous generation, compared to how much better the 5th, 4th, and 3rd generation cars were compared to their predecessors.
So what say ye, TCL. Shall i put down the crack pipe?
