Default bought this car from this girl

ok so, Hello everyone, Im Lucy and my entire family are honda drivers. I think our family has owned 6 hondas over the past 17 years... all accords and civics, of course.

I just bought my 98 Accord Sedan EX from my sister, who was the first owner. It has a modest 70k miles on it. Its an automatic, and moon roofed . I dont think there are any aftermarket parts on it, even the stereo and speakers are OEM (its a CD player so its alright). Here she is....




Its already experience the "common honda problems." Its had a window problem for years now and recently it began to fight me to shift into gear (out of park)




My dream Accord is the 98-02 Accord Coupe, 5-speed Manual, in the same purple/plum as my current accord. If i could id totally change it into shifter paddles [&:]. So heres the stock pic of that car



Pleasure to make your acquaintance [sm=smiley14.gif][sm=thanx.gif]

P.s., Im also a motorcyclist, but Ive never owned a Honda bike. And yes, that is me in my avatar. (It says Zairrah because she did the make up for the picture)

thanks

well Im planning on changing out the speakers and getting a decent deck sometime in the future, when the budget lets me. Other than that i probably wont do anything else, since it isnt my "dream" car. BTW, my dream car and my dream accord are two separate things... .
I really want a German car, but Honda is my first love [sm=loveeyes.gif].

I've had a couple German cars, & theyre nice too.

Do you play strings, or is that just a prop for the picture?
