Hope to join you guys soon. Yeah, about the colors, I'm flexible. I just wish Honda offered some more variety. I know I really am not interested in the silver UNLESS it is an emergency and that is all I can get. I do want a 6 speed coupe, I don't like automatics, even though most of my driving is in rush hour Wash, DC traffic. Honda makes some incedible manual/clutch combinations that are a joy to drive rather than a chore.

I've got a Prelude 5 spd "base" model now with over 85,000 miles. The car has been great, few (but not NO) problems and the car is still a joy to drive. Too bad they don't make the Prelude anymore . I think the Accord will be a more accomadating ride though. I'm not complaining about the Prelude's ride by that last sentence, what I mean is its a little tough to find a comfortable driving position and the seats are so/so as far as comfort is concerned.
