I think you should get a bimmer because:

1. You want a car with grunt.
2. you want a car with refinement.
3. You want a car that others will envy you for owning/help out your image.
4. You view your car as a fashion statement (or you would never have brought up that styling/2 yr fact)

A bimmer fits that criteria nicely.

I want to clarify something:

There is nothing ghetto about an older Legend or ES250. They are old cars, that actually still surpass your car (and my own) in terms of refinement and possibly even styling. They are obviously more popular with the ghetto fabulous because they can't afford more, but there are still many older affluent people who drive them because they are good cars. They really only beome ghetto when you put fade mirror tint, gold trim, crazy body kits and chrome wheels on them, but if that's what floats that person's boat, so be it.

That's my opinion on the mods that you want to do. I'd never do any of them. The adage less is more comes to mind.


Hondas are not the be all end all by any means. Anybody that believes that is either joking or simply a dumbass. I am a car nut and can appreciate any car even the tepid 3 cyl Geo Metro's. I would not own just any car, but I can appreciate different things about them. After about 10 years/95,XXX miles , my baby, a 94 EX Coupe, still looks good and performs well for my needs.


You did compare your car to a 3800 V6 (check the hood of your buds beloved GP ). That motor rocks, is tough as hell, and pounds down the dead dinosaur juice like we live in Kuwait. But its also noisy, vibrates and doesn't have much life past 4000 rpms....

But like I said before, don't put money into a car that you will not ultimately be happy with. Save it for a newer and better car. Don't blow your load.

BTW I include the pic of my car just to demonstrate where I am coming from stylistically..
