On one of the both cars that i put, it was say that it was a car sold in France in October 1997. I don't think this is imported versions. It's very difficult if you aren't a professionnal to put the US cars with the regulations in France.

For the pics, i think like that it was Japan version.

For my book: my book said (book for france):
Honda Accord:
-New Gen in summer 1993
- Coupe and Break in june 1994
- New engine and lifted sedan in december 1995
- New engine TDI in march 1996
- Lifted Coupe in april 1996
...
There is also an official pic of the Coupe that is a lifted version with the text. I will see also in my magazin of 1996 to see if there is some informations.

Okay, well maybe you use scans of that magazine as pictures or find something on the internet.

Are you absolutely sure those cars aren't imported?

As for the current pictures, the background and license plates are typically Japanese, and the steering wheel is on the right side. (Also they are from autowp.ru, which says it's the Accord SiR, which was only sold in Japan)
Furthermore, you talk about a facelift in 1996, but I believe that's only for the sedan, as the sedan was different for Europe from the rest of the world, while the coup was imported from the United States.

my books say there is a lifting in 1996 in France and there is this proof from France: www.ouestfrance-auto.com/voiture-occasion/honda-accord-coupe-essence-saint-hilaire-de-loulay-vendee-6272870.html and www.leboncoin.fr/voitures/758592072.htm
And your pic is from a before 1996 car (because it's a 2.0 and after 1996 there is only the 2.2

I think the one you added before was sold in Europe from 1994-1998(like autowp.ru says). Here is a 1997 Accord in the Netherlands: www.marktplaats.nl/a/auto-s/honda/m905923441-honda-accord-2-0-i-ls-coupe-1997-rood.html?c=efb2ef4dc323389c4f92ed10afa33e3a&previousPage=lr

I don't think the Accord with these taillights was ever sold in Europe.

2015-03-12 21:33		Tell me if i am wrong, but it looks like the previous generation was sold longer in Europe until 1998 while this generation was only sold in Japan and South America (i found a car from Peru in web).

But what i can definetely tell is that this car with those tail lights was not sold in Germany.
