Hello from Sydney, Australia

[Ticol]

Hi! How we all doin? I stumbled upon this site while looking for things for my 99 Accord. To tell you all the truth, i really hated this car. It wasn't something that I wanted, but due to certain circumstances i'm sort of stuck with it. I've had a fair few cars to date, the one before the accord was my Honda S2000. So it was a bit of a change from the S2K to the accord.

Although my mind has been changed after seeing all the great things you can do with this car. I hope to change my mind a bit more on my Accord, seeing that i will have it for maybe 1 more year. Looking forward to hearing from you all.

You went from an S2000 to an Accord?


Downgrade to the max! Welcome, man.

Well...you probably won't like it as much as the s2k, lol. But it does have some other things to offer. Welcome to the site.

Question: How much do Vauxhall VXR-8's cost around there? I love them.

4cyl or v6? More than likely a sedan. Coupes are rare. Welcome to the site.

Welcome Ticol !

Question: How much do Vauxhall VXR-8's cost around there? I love them.

I can answer that for him since i'm also from Sydney The latest 2012 Model will cost around $80k but a little haggling could pull it down to about $78k.

As for the accord, Mikey, you are right I would assume that it is a sedan. To date, I've yet to see an coupe driving around.

hehehe yeah but it's better than nothing i guess

RedRyder, man there is too many VXr-8's here to tell you how much.. check out carsalesdotcomdotau and you can see how much they are going for. They are called Holden Commodores here and i'm guessing the VXR-8 is the SS?? I dunno.. I'm a big holden fan but i can't distinguish with what they offer from o/seas. I would recommend looking at the HSV they are very very nice..

Mikey, I have the 4cyl version. yes in a sedan, coupes do not exist here as far as i know.

Thanks for the welcome guys

ALSO, forgot to mention i used to own a car audio shop and know a fair bit of car audio wiring so if anyone has any questions, please do not hesitate to ask

I'm loving these lil bastards..

Welcome!

What happened to the S2K? :S

 

[Ticol]

Welcome!

What happened to the S2K? :S

I gave it to my little bro because i did something bad.. I sold his Series 6 rx7 without him knowing and didn't give him all the money. oops... and to make peace with him, i swapped him my S2K with his Accord and we have been friends since.. but then i found out that this car was a repairable write-off AND the O rings are blown on it and so i can not sell this car to anyone else because i have a conscience thus being stuck with it for a while.

So there we go..

Welcome to the site.

Enjoy.

That's quite a situation with you and your brother....that would lead to death in some other countries, I think!

 

[Emphasis]

Welcome.

To be honest, I didn't quite like the Accord either when I first got it. I also thought the tail lights were ughh (4 door). I've really grown to like the car though.
