and to tell you the truth i am going to convert over to the dark side. getting a WRB WRX soon. i will still and always love my accord but you can't lie...a WRX is just a fun daily driver. and to be honest i will probably drive by a 6th gen and laugh at how slow it is even though i have the j30. but i will always love the accord like i said before.:beer:

haha yah man theres an 05 WRX for sale down the road from me. Haters will say "its not an STi", but it's still turbo AWD.

I mod mine to make the car more enjoyable to me, both when I drive it, and when I get out and look at it. I don't care about making it fast because no matter how much money I dumped into performance mods there would still be someone out there faster. I don't spend crazy money on showy stuff to enter it in shows because no matter how much I dumped in that area there would still be someone at the shows who would end up winning. It's a daily driven Honda Accord, I spend money here and there on maintaining it, making it look better, making it handle better, etc, just so I can improve the overall car. Not much more to it than that.

decent? i think it's pretty huge. majority of the trunks out there are 3/4 of our trunks. some 1/2 maybe i don't go into peoples trunks as much but the one's i've seen are pretty small compared to 6th gen. sedan though, not sure about the coupes.:jae:

Well said, although I would still spend money on making it faster/handle better....but that's just me! :naughty:

For me I just like the way my car looks. Always get the just buy another car quote from my friends. Sure it's heavy, but I've grown attached to it.

I mod my car because I want to smoke :rice:R on the street....












JK.

The reason I mod my car is because not many people here mod Accord, especially the Sedan:( But that makes my car more unique plus my 6spd swap makes it even better. Like RedRyder said, I too dislike having the same car that many people already have and same car that people mod. I love the way the 6gen accord look, Sedan or coupe doesnt matter, love em both. Also it is a reliable car for my daily. It gets me here and there with no prob. :driving:
