I'm seriously thinking about buying a second car for city/work driving. I am looking at a 74k MI 2003 Accord LX coup w/AT -I4. The guys asking 12k for it and I think i'll offer him 11k. Everything's nice cept a little black plastic fading and minor scratches. Anybody think I should get something else? Anybody have any opinions about this model? I need a trip/business car.

You can't go wrong with an Accord. I picked up a 98 4-door recently to have as my "daily driver", which has become my preferred use of transportation 90% of the time. As a car, its roomy, I average 28 mpg, its nearly as quick as my stick GT, and its a hell of a lot more luxurious in terms of convienece features... However as nice as it is, it has no personality whatsoever when driving it- it doesnt evoke any sort of passion when i drive it (its an atuo, so thats expected to a degree). Honestly, the accord you describe would more than likely end up being your fav., and the celi would take the backseat so to speak... I only drive my celi when I want to go "driving" when I have the free time, if that makes sense... I'd say its a great car, so go for it

I have had a 97 4dr SE and a 01 EX coupe. I loved them both, hated to see them go but it was there time.
I want to get a 01 V6 EX coupe this time around, I reccomend the V6 its so much faster. DTE -------------------- I am a thief.

Why would you do that if you have a Celica/

that's one of the three hondas i'd ever buy. but it'd have to be the v6 one. and the new models look even nicer.

Hondas are good !
but for 11 K you can get something a little nicer like leather interior, V6 .... I mean probably the same car with more options. but still a good car. --------------------  |
