Judging by how he said rebuilt tranny it is an auto.

And you don't have to worry about replacing the motor, the auto tranny will die at least 3 more times before the motor goes.

How did you beat us? In mileage? There are plenty of sub-70k mile Accords out there.

Look up my member ride thread... that was done in a less than 10 months...

Default I beat you all in love to the Accord*

yeah I love my car. its been a great car, except when I got in an accident a few years ago. what I meant by "beating you all" was how much I love my accord. and how ridiculous i was in replacing parts that could have lasted awhile longer. I know I can easily push this car another 150k, which is why I replaced almost everything. 6th gen accord is my favorite. had a 2000 integra, was stolen and salvaged to the bare frame from some Asian gangsters...

I used to have a 95 GSR which I liked better than the Accord. But that was just because of size. I'm not a fan of the car getting so BIG.

My ultimate favorite would be an Accord that looked like a 6th-gen (best looking IMHO) but it would be the size of my 95 4-door integra. And it would have a K-series engine.
