Honda has announced that it will integrate Siri into its 2013 Honda Accord and Acura RDX and ILX vehicles as a dealer installed option.

Later this year, owners with a compatible iPhone running iOS 6 can direct Siri to perform a number of specific tasks while they safely keep their eyes on the road and their hands on the wheel. Using Eyes Free mode, Siri takes hands-free functionality even further and minimizes distractions even more by keeping your iOS device's screen from lighting up.

"iPhone has become so integral to people's lives that they continue to use them in their vehicles, " said Vicki Poponi, assistant vice president of automobile product planning, American Honda. "Offering Honda and Acura owners Siri and its Eyes Free mode via Bluetooth is an incredible opportunity to provide next-generation connectivity and meet our customer's ever-changing needs."

Thats exactly what I drive black on black 6 speed manual with a Nav awesome car.. People are not going to add this option . You better have unlimited data plan . Pandora is integrated as well but you dont have unlimited data you're f**cked. I use Pandora unlimited skip all the time. I love it. The car is fuucking fast..but I still miss my S2000. That was the best car. I cant wait for the NSX to come out.
