Well after 3 months of my new Ap2....
im regretfully trading it in for an 08 EX-L V6 Accord. My commute is 140 miles a day and my 2 jsut became my primary car as my beater took a **** on me. The accord is more practical for me especially during winter months. It's been fun fellas.

1000 dollar beaters just endup costing you another 1000 dollar beater.

you getting the accord coupe or sedan? i dont really like the way it looks..if you're getting the coupe, id say look at the altima coupe instead. or better yet, new g37 coupe! sedan-wise, look at the new G35 sedan. the new accord reminds me of a Hyundai when i look at it

I'm going to have to agree with this n00b. I am not a big fan of the new Accords. I saw a coupe the other day, and even though I didn't think it looked too bad on paper, I couldn't not get over how bad it looked in real life.
I'd go with a Civic Si (sedan) or wait for the new TSX to hit.

Re: Well after 3 months of my new Ap2.... (Chubzilla)
Having owned the car for only 3 months you're going to be so upside down in depreciation loss of value that it'd be cheaper to get another beater.
I got a 1991 Civic hatch, paid $1500 and gets nearly 40mph city and hwy. With the amount of $ I save in fuel cost as it is now, the car has paid for itself already in less than a year with the amount of $ I save by NOT driving the S2000 everyday!

depreciation didnt concern me being that i was only financing 5k on it. Picked up my accord last week and its nothing short of a great car

Hmmm, just because you dumped at least $25k towards the down payment does not mean that you didn't just eat a serious loss in value.

Re: Well after 3 months of my new Ap2.... (KingVR)
Why an accord, boo 
I would've done what everyone else stated, buy a cheap civic (a hatch in my case)
but......boo!

Re: Well after 3 months of my new Ap2.... (Mr. Nishant)
i don't know what everyone's complaints are.....the new accord coupe ex-l v6 is sick...but the sedans remind me of the bastard child of a tl/tsx
factory lip kit is gross, but give it time.......throw some nice wheels on there, a good drop, and wait for a better lip kit, but new accord coupe is probably my next pick up as well
