Default CarFax Request, and I've Found My Next Car, Offically

Yes kids, I'm joining the 5th gen. Accord squad. I couldn't find a 240SX, Maxima's weren't cheap enough, Integras were too small and everything else sucked.

A 5th gen. Accord with high miles will be perfect, and will be much easier to work on than my 6th gen.

I'll eventually be buying a daily driver for me though. This Accord won't be stock for long. :rick:

I'm going Wednesday to check this black sedan out.

It's a 1997 LX 4-door sedan with 103,000 miles on it.

I'd order this beast almost immediately.


220HP anyone? :rick:

With that said, somebody please run this VIN #.

1HGCD5562VA005795

It might not be this particular Accord, as it might be sold by the time I get to it, but it will be a 5th gen.

I'm glad I'm done searching. :fawk:

Keep the car the way it is!!! Don't put those ugly body kits and taillights on it.

I like clean looking Accords!:thumbup:

It'd be subtle. Rims, drop, exhaust, maybe a lip, tint and clear corners.

:rofl: I have no comeback because it's likely true. But I think this one will be different.

I am planning on getting another car this year! However, its gonna be a beater cuz I can't afford another new car!
Fawk I had a $675 bill just to get my TSX's A/C fixed....ugh its killing me! I hate the dual zone climate control crap, Honda doesn't know how to make it right!!! Also, one of the mudguards fell off the TSX too and I need to put them back on!

It was covered under warranty, but the Acura dealer charged me up da arse for the labor costs!

All they did was remove the moisture and mold from the A/C and stuff. I don't see how they can charge me just for that. I am gonna see if I can get my money back, I have all the receipts with me and I will go and complain.

I am gonna start saving up for a 1992 Civic sedan beater car!
