ORIGINAL: white95

This has happened a few times with our mini van. There are a lot of green ones that look like ours.

I just read a story about 2 weeks ago, can't find it now: Old woman comes out of a store to find several young guys hanging around her car. She pulls a gun thinking that they are trying to break in and screams, "Get away from my car!". The guys run off scared and the lady tries to unlock it only to find the key won't work: it's not her car. Oops! Funny .

Omg! That is hilarious. Big oops. That old lady has a quick draw, eh? lol

There are tons of 6th gen accords as well as 5th gens and 7th gens down here in MS. However I am usually able to distinguish my 2000 LX since the ugly plastic steel wheel covers have the paint coming off.

My dad had a gray 92 accord station wagon a long time ago and the entire time he had the car never saw another gray 4th accord station wagon.
i see my exact year, model, and color of my car all the time.

two of the cars in our family now are my accord (very common) and a silver Hyundai santa fe (extremely common)
i always check the plates to make sure its my car, lol.

There are a ton of 6th gen accords around here ..... I'm sure that I'll take a few steps toward a black 4 door for a while. This little silver hatch is going to take a little getting used to. BTW-until I looked at it, I thought that tc's were coupes!

I always thought of a tc as a coupe. Interesting that it is actually a hatch.

Me too ..... and since the upgrade is SC and not a turbo, I'd have called it an SH ..... supercharged hatch. I always thought that tc sounds like it should be a turbo coupe.

FYI - One of the things that I fell in love with is that when you are inside it, all you see around you is glass. No real blind spots, small pillars and lots of glass. ...... and the double sunroof thing is pretty nice! I didn't really like them when I first saw them from outside, but inside they are really cool and the exterior look is growing on me.
