OTHER WORDING

Since English does not have a genitive form for that or which, a number of variations are in use. A comma separates a comment that is non-essential (not required) for the identification of the noun.

The Honda Accord, which I admired, was a comfortable car. (The aside comment “which I admired” adds extra information; it does not identify a particular car.)
