I have a 2003 Satin Silver DX 5-speed. I've had it for 2 /12 months, have 2400 miles on it, get 32 mpg just driving around town - and I love it!!

It's true, almost everyone has an EX, I don't see any other DXs and not too many LXs- but, as far as it being a waste of money, I only paid $12,988 and for that I am driving a brand new Accord! True, it doesn't have many of the extras, but it's prewired for most of them, so I can add what I want to as I can afford to and don't have to pay for anything I don't want. (I did have them add in the factory air, for an additional $1400.)

(Have to admit, though - if money was no object, I would be driving a graphite pearl EXL. )

Why would you waste 13,000 on a base, base,base model accord??? you probably could have gotten something like :
'93 RX-7 twin turbo
or a '94 300ZX twin turbo...

now you gotta spend mad cash to get the same options my '96 accord lx coupe has... I only paid $6,000 for mine :thumbup: (first car, I'd have a 93 300zx TT if i could pay the insurance)
