What Is The Most Appealing Thing About You 3 Gee?

[Jonessoda27]

We all love our 3 gees regardless if they are DX's or LX's, but what is it about your 3 gee that makes you happy you have it parked out on the street or garage? Is it the pop up headlights? :bow: Post your reasons, and also vote in the poll! :cool:

[lightbulblxi]

i like my 3g because it is an old skool import, and it is not over populated with riced out ones.

[Not like a rock]

1) Flip up headlights

2) D3

3) More up-to-date styling (especially the interior) compared to other cars from the same year.

I'll toss out a question: Is the 3g the only sedan in North America with flip up lights?

[MIK3]

One of the main reasons I love my car so much, is because it is so amazingly easy to drive. It takes little to no effort to maintain driving ability for the vehicle, it's awesome.

[deadlight]

:rofl: Of these 4, what do you like the best?

[Vinny]

Its 100% Paid For

[diegoaccord]

Cheapest car you do 8500 RPM in.

[DeathRat]

I love my 3Gee for it's GREAT gas mileage, no governor, & easy to work on.

[Cheeseburger]

i love my car because is gas economical, its relable never leavs me stranded, and the Pop-Up Headlights :cool: :eek:

[Jims 86LXI HB]

I say what's great about a 3g is you can jump into one and experience a pretty darn good car on the whole. If you go out and look a some brand new car's costing 12k-19K, and take them for a drive, some of them don't measure up to the 3g, in spite of being fresh off the assembly line. That's a accomplishment IMO.

[Nuffice]

Cheapest car you do 8500 RPM in.

:lol: I wish!

[od2681]

i like it cuzz its a strong ass car...
it can go through a lot of beating but will still keep going
and plus its funny to see a civic get beat by an old ass supposedly POS car.....

[Jonessoda27]

HA HA

just vote... lol

[Silver86LX]

I like my 3g because...

pop-up headlights
it's easy to work on
I can easily find cheap parts for it at the junkyard

[AZmike]

It's reliable, easy to fix, cheap to operate (insurance, gas, and parts), handles well, and is big enough to haul a fair amount of stuff if necessary.

[AQcz]

One of the things I like best are the pop-up lights.

After that I just like the body style of the 3Geez.

[Brentm]

I like the fact that my car is a 3000 pound vibrator whenever I pull upto a stoplight, and the body style, so original. If my car wasnt such a POS id love it even more.

[BMS]

I like the fact that I can fix almost anything on the car in my own garage with minimal tools. I also like the fact that I have power everything. I have more options on my car than my parents have on theirs. And so far my reliability record is 100%. I also like the part where I have 295,000 miles and no compression loss or noticeable power decrease. I also love pulling 3rd gear onto the freeway, going faster than the flow of traffic by the time I actually get onto the freeway.

[deadlight]

Ladies love a 3000 lb. vibrator, *closer to 2400 but who cares?*

[AccordArizona89]

how my car is primered black and my hood is still white. now i gotta lil rep. around glendale/peoria haha

[Bryan]

3000 lbs.? Damn what do you have in it.....mines like 2300....I guess some like them a bit heavier.....

[Jareds 89 LX-i]

I love everything.... the body style, pop-up headlights, easy as hell to drive and maintain, easy to work on, power everything, moonroof, still rides nice and smooth at both low and high speeds, and reliable as F**K!! I love the fact that I can go out at any given time, turn the key, and it starts right up in the blink of an eye and runs 100% perfectly.... EVERY TIME!! :bow: :bow:

[88accordhb]

i love my 3g because it's no show/no go...just loud as hell and piss lots of people off. doesn't even have a tapeplayer. oh! i also like how i have to roll my windows up and down manuelly, like a form of excercise!

Hey man that's a cool picture

[Jonessoda27]

Can't beat a 3 gee's power.

[Oyvind Ryeng]

-Power Steering is the best I've ever tried in a car. Ever.
-4* power windows, 2* power mirrors, power sunroof.
-Low weight (good for handling, performance and fuel economy).
-Fast, for having only 122 hp.
-Great low-down torque.
-Handles like a gocart, but still comfortable.
-Extremely reliable.
-It's a Honda!

[od2681]

you should have also put "looks like a hachiroku (86)" as a choice

[88accordhb]

ahhahahha did you see my website on cardomain? it says 88 accord hatch nickname: the defected trueno.

[erics86dx]

It reliable, pretty nice looking for a old car, still has a lil kick in it over the years, all the miles i put on it dont phase it, big ass trunk, already kind of low to the ground, dont have to spend a fortune to fill the gas tank, underestimated so i can kick ass and take names, girls like it, and its a manual

[BMS]

already kind of low to the ground

Stock for stock our cars are the same height as 86-89 Supras. I thought that was interesting.

[erics86dx]

thats cool, you learn something new everyday

[Wood9669]

i can floor it or keep it in 2nd till 60mph and if it breaks its only $100 for a new car

[Jonessoda27]

haha thats hella funny man :rofl:

[Not like a rock]

I've come to realize how much punishment my car takes. I use it for delivery, which means that I start it up about 17-20 times a day, tack on 150 kms every night, and pound it down bumpy gravel roads way faster than most people would dare with other cars (that they liked).

I was cruising around with a friend in his 96 jetta the other day and he was flinching at every little pot hole, heave and crack, complaining about how bad the roads are. So I realized how tough the old accord is because I hit all that stuff going 3X faster and it never complains.

[Busted_Blue]

The powersteering is amazing. So useful in small areas where you need to move around. A pinkie and move the steeringwheel but when you reach higher speeds, the steering is stiffer. Bless Variable Powersteering thing-a-ma-bob.

[88accordalltheway]

I like my car because it has a back seat and tinted windows which creates a nice hidden place for me and my gf if you know what i mean...

I had to curb the wheels the other day cuz I parked on a hill in San Fran. I didn't remember to crank the wheel till the car was already off. So I just garb the wheel and give it a good jerk expecting heavy resistance. Man...even with no power steering those wheels are no problem to turn. I love it.

[HostileJava]

Where's the choice for other?

The hard work that went into making custom everything !

[87-Lx-i-3Dr]

Love my 3G because it was FREE... Plus it has 170k miles and it still runs like a new car. Which is suprise considering I dog the piss out of it. Also no one where I live has one that looks as good as mine.... (still haven't seen Shep's)

[87-Lx-i-3Dr]

aw yea.... the flip up lights would be my favorite on the poll.....

[Jonessoda27]

We are talking bone stock :burn:

[carfreak]

Got Popups?


Cheap import. Didn't have to borrow money from mama and dady to get it.

Fun to drive.

Had my car for 3 years and has never broke down on me yet (although my car doesn't have original motor in it).

Modern look for a car thats 18 years old. :cool:

Has good performance for a 98+ HP Carbed engine.

[aaron212]

This is gonna make me sound old but I love the reliability. My '92 Toyota MR2 fell apart big time when it turned 100k. Also the gas mileage for such an old car astounds me, the availability of cheap parts if i should need them, the rear wiper (so cool!), and the hatchback versatility. Go Honda!

[Mike89Accordcom]

Def my paintjob. Made it amazing....

[speedpenguin]

affordable reliable performance...
that and popups.

[meangreenLXi]

I voted moonroof, but yeah the pop up headlights have been a favorite of mine since I was little. A suburu XT coupe was the first car I ever fell in love with outside of Starky and Hutch's Grand Torreno.

[Rendon LX-i]

The most appealing things on my ride is

Im the only one that has one were i live lol. plus its droped with the fat fives. no riced out shit. just plain clean look. but stands out at the same time. :cool:

[grsmnky33]

I like my Lx-i because it towed a 2500 lb. trailer from Dallas TX to Sacramento CA without missing a beat, has never left me stranded EVER, has 207K on it and I drive it as hard as ever ( I put about 200-250 miles a day on it 5 days a week)..........

[NeubJ]

i like my 3g because it is an old skool import, and it is not over populated with riced out ones.
LOL. Most people who own a 3gee dont care for it. About 90 percent of the ones I see they are rusted,missing body parts, painted different colors, and so on. The ones that are in decent shape have wings, fart pipes and tons of decals. I have seen only one that I liked. A white coupe like mine and the paint job was awesome. It was so clean and simple.

I like the body style of the 3gee coupe.

[AQcz]

I like the availabitily of parts to customize these cars. So muchyou can do with them
