Well 3g lovers.. after months of searching.."the right car" came along finally..
a
metallic blue 86 honda accord Lxi:super:
no rust spots..
no dents...
no scratches..
only problems are as follows
gotta rewire the rear speaker bcuz the stock wires are cut somewhere..
a coolant leak which i hope to fix this weekend..
and lastly the doors open/close sensor is on wack for the drivers side... u could have the door closed and it will still be on..
but besides those minor things EVERYTHING WORKS...
and they installed a new AC bcuz the one it had didnt work..
also they deducted 400 dollars from the total payment.. bcuz the glovebox is fucked up as in wont close bcuz its broken.. i have a corner light out... and bcuz of the drivers side door sensor
also it has an ALARM:D
not fancy but still has one..
if any one opens the doors it goes off..
and it has an ignition cut off key right below the radio
just turn that key and pull it out
no one can turn on the car..
even if they try to push-start it..
SORRY FOR THIS BEING A LIL LONG.. ITS 8AM.. AND IM FUCKIN HAPPY
(got the car last night)

Good find. How many miles? How much did u pay for it? Sounds like ur happy with it so far. Have any plans for it? Make sure to get some pics and post em up here. Hey, where in Florida are u located? My mom lives in Florida, and she said that she would register my car down there for me. I heard that you don't have inspection stickers down there? Is that true??

good luck with the new 3G

With good care, your car's gonna last a very long time. Welcome to the board too. Beware of them "haters" (people who are honest with their opinions).

u guys the car is making a rattling noise..
i cant determine if its from the engine bay or below the car..
my guess is its the head shield for the cat..
U KNOW THOSE FUCKERS AT THE DEALER SHIP PUT A RESONATOR RIGHT AFTER THE CAT!:mad:
i mean wtf.. its not gonna be loud with a stock muffler..
probably due to the old fart who had it before..
ehhehe i found one of his tickets in the glove box..
HOME BOY WAS BORN IN 66..
so im assuming he was the 1st or 2nd owner..
im assuming 1st.. lol
anyhow i have to wait till someone gets home to check the rattling
cuz when im in the car it sounds like its coming from the engine bay..
but when i tap the gas barely with my foot and im standing with the door open..
i hear it from under the car...
so i think its the heat shield?
any guesses..
by the way it does it when i accel a lil hard.
like ill be cruising at 40mph and im in 3rd and hit the gas a lil the sound is there then goes away..
its like only when i accelerate quickly

for my car the heat shield only vibrates at a certain rpm, mine was around 2800
