    am buying a 2002-2003 Accord. have been offered one with silver paint, but
    I seem to recall a caveat about not buying silver or red cars, as the paint
    doesn't last. I keep my cars forever...first choice is white, but if
    another color is much cheaper???

    Sounds like you'd be ASKING for trouble, considering the current
    methods of road tax collection in this country and Canada.

    thank you very much. I am trying to buy white, but have been offered that
    silver car...I think I will get a 2003 white LX w/ the side air bags, auto
    trans, AC and many features standard that used to be options...

    I do so love my White '92 Accord LX two door 5 speed with the blue
    interior. Bought it new, and it's got 215,000 miles on it now. bob
