I have always thought the accord coupe was a beautiful car. It was first on my list when i was shopping for my first car, but it was out of my price range. After the Hyundai Elantra that i bought got totaled insurance gave me $12,000 so I resumed my search for an accord. Found one in good shape and the rest is history.

Basically i bought it because i thought it looked sexy, and because it would be reliable and i had/have no intentions of ever selling it. plus i wanted a V6 at the time, could care less about that now though.

My old $hit box died on me and i went to the dealer looking into a new civic at the time. Sat in a civic and found out i was too tall for it and the sales person took me to look at at an accord but the new ones were out of my budget at the time (being a college student). So i picked up a used one...I loved coupes so thats what I got

Well the reason i got the Ac my 2 previous cars commited suicide, 88 pontiac grand am cp with matching rims and a 91 nissan maxima with snrf and leather interior. i wanted either a maxima or accord. My girl had a hook up at the honda dealership. i think the car picked me it felt like the headlights winked at me and said u know u want me, so i took her home that day this was back in june 04, weve been inseperable ever since, LOL. She was a certified used accord so i did spend a lil more than normal about 15k out the door i'm almost done paying her off , 9 more payments then she is mine.

Well I had a few in mind.
V8 Lincoln LS
3000GT
300ZX
Prelude
6GA
(in no order)

But my loan could only cover cars back to 02 so it was either Accord or LS and I heard the LS V8s had serious heating problems and I didn't want that so I narrowed it down to the Accord.


Then my tranny started slipping ....

Edit: didn't know i was participating in a thread from the dead. Grr
