My Girl Bought '04 Accord EX V6 Coupe

Picked the car up Saturday...going from a '99 Grand Am she is totally in love with this car! I've driven a few before and I must say the power is impressive. I would love to have that much torque in my Si! We shopped around for a while and ended up getting it for $18,250!!! The car was loaded with every option and has 37,000 miles. They were asking $20,995 so I feel like we got a killer deal. She had to settle for the green but for the price it was well worth it.

Nice. I like those Accords. I wish I have a Sedan now.

Yeah the tail end on the sedans are not as attractive as the coupes...which they changed for '06 which looks very nice. I sometimes wish I had went with the 6-speed Accord....It was a hard decision because I like performace and handeling of the Civic Si but also like the more upscale feel and comfort of the Accord. In the end the Si looks won hands down!

yeah the seats are very nice....that's one of the things I really noticed vs. my after market leather in my Si....

....It was pretty funny because we had both cars cleaned up sitting in the garage, my habi red Si and her forest green Accord and it made me think of Christmas.

Nice!

I left my camera at work over the weekend so no chance to take any pics yet. I'll post them as soon as I get a chance to snap a few.
