    fool everyone :)

    add on meaning stuff you CAN buy, but dont need. it already comes with
    AC, power windows/locks, sunroof, etc

    the addon stuff can be as neat as TRD bolt-ons, or as cheesey as neon
    underdash lighting. and yes- its offered as a dealer addon. thats
    screaming "ambisexual raver" right there :) whats next? glow sticks and
    pacifiers?

    I drove my 1982 Prelude up until 2 months ago. It ran like a brand new car
    was that the one with the tach in the middle of the speedo? i liked that
    dash design.<<

    Nope, separate tach - 1st generation.

    Oh, don't worry blondee_yvr, I'm not at all. (vbg = "very big grin",
    common enough in another venue but maybe not known here, sorry--my
    comment was meant as a joke)

    I just got a 94 Civic, and considering what I came from it's a huge step
    up in looks. I wholly agree that automatic is much better for lots of
    city driving--my last was an automatic, but most of my driving is hwy
    and I needed a change.

    Ha! A new one I haven't heard! It's a shame this generation is
    ambisexual and metrosexual. What happened to heterosexual?!

    I bought an '03 Accord in part because of Honda's "reputation" for quality.
    So far I am not impressed with the number of seeming unfixable interior
    rattles. Mine has also been recalled to modify the transmission.


    Hmmmm.

    the transmission.

    Would you have preferred, that Honda did not issue a
    recall for your vehicle's transmission?

    My roommates from quite a few years back had a Honda Accord. He would
    just change oil & filter on it, and basically do minimal maintenance.
    Last I checked on that car, it had 200k miles on it, and still running
    good. His car might be an exception, or yours, I don’t know.
