Well Personally I would get a 96,97 accord ex. It has the vtec motor, rear disc brakes, and rear anti sway bar. If your looking for an automatic stay away from the 6th gens those trannies have many problems, but the 5spd in those years are nice. The 5th gen weighs less and well in my biased opinion looks much better too.

5th gen are nice cause they are the last accord to also be the same design in japan. 5th gens also have better aftermarket support and are easier to do a h22 swap into.

True, I haven't seen to many 6th gens with an H22. I usually hear how the check engine light is going off. Hopfully in a couple of years it will be easier to do...when I can afford it.:driving:

Well My tranny lasted me till 120k then I broke it thinking powerbraking was agood thing. So now im on my second one its allready slipping lol. Stupid used tranny. Thats what happens when you cant afford to get a 5spd put in and have to borrow money from the parents who dont think you can swap a 5spd in. Oh well.
