Yay for you. Hondas are good cars. Someday when I can afford a new(er) car, I will probably get a Honda. I've had way too much trouble with my Outback to be a loyal Subaru customer like my mom. Plus, my first car was an '84 Accord. Man, I miss that car. Anyway, good luck with the payments.

Honda!

WooHoo!

I am actually more loyal to Toyota cars but Honda is my close second choice. Foriegn cars are the way to go.

You have a Suburu Outback and it's giving you troubles? How many miles do you have? We had an 81 Suburu and it ran for a long time and even hit a deer and kept on going! Talk about a tank! We didn't want to move with it so we gave it to my mechanic uncle (who fixed our other car's clutch in return) and he sold it to one of his nephews.

Wouldn't that be a cousin?

The most recent issue

However, it's getting a new part today that will *crosses fingers* fix things without costing me an outrageous amount of money.

I have a '95 Honda Civic that currently has 181,500 miles on it. Only one prior owner - my dad, so I know it's been maintained well. Minor dings from shopping carts, I don't think there's any body rust, and runs great.

Hmm, nice. I have a '99 Camry. It runs well. [Big Grin]

My brother just bought a brand new Neon. It's the craziest color. It had 30 miles on it when he bought it THIS MORNING.. now it has about 115. [Roll Eyes]

He got it..

FOR HIS BIRTHDAY..
WHICH IS TODAY!

[Party]

(That's 3 threads I've thrown that into. Rahaha)

Whoo, okay. For those of you who care to see what a cool car his is:

This is the car

And the picture of the BLUE ring in the middle of the bottom row..is the color

That is EXACTLY the color of his car. (I know the picture's weird.. blah)
When I first saw it, I thought I would be sick, but at night, it looks pretty nifty. [Cool]

'98 Cavalier for me. She is a bit noisy, but she runs great, and I get great mileage. Yay!

Honda's are addictive. My first was a '74 Civic. I loved that car. Now I have a Honda Element. This one took some getting used to because you sit so much higher, but it is great. It is also very utilitarian - there's tons of room and it's easily convertible (removing or folding seats away) on the inside for hauling stuff. Also, with no carpeting, it is a breeze to clean.

Edit: sore fingers cannot key today, obviously.
