Gave mine a heart transplant. Car really came alive and it infinitely improved the intimacy of the driving experience. Feeling disconnected from a car is what causes me to get bored of it. But I really love the car, if you're not attached to it...then maybe it's time to move on.

I just went out and drove it...more

Spirited drives ftw

And this.

If you truly feel like selling it; then perhaps it's time to sell it.

Don't deliberately look for a reason to like or not like something.

Definately throw some mods to it, if you are willing and give it a new lease on life.

Gotta +2 what the Gregster said about the spirited driving.

One day you will get to the point where no mods can turn the big ole accord into a fun machine.

You're talking about a car that weighs 3000-3200 lbs. It's not some land yacht.

That's the same weight as an E36 328i.

I agree. I did the same thing and even though the car was slow it was definitely an interesting experience. The car is slow and chassis geometry is crap but it'll definitely teach you how to drive.

Do I/H/E and maintenance on the car. It'll bring back some life into it that you'll enjoy for a good couple of months. Do a manual swap if you haven't already and suspension as well.

^I/H/E won't really add any excitement, unless noise is the goal.

I would sooner leave the engine stock and upgrade the suspension if I really wanted to have some fun with the car.
