^^ Dont know what my next mod is going to be because I ended up taking out the MSD coil. More than likesly bigger grounds all around, or new paint...new suspension...something. :) I have been having some firing problems lately, and a lot of hesitation/sputtering. I believe it's due to me acidently getting some water in the distributor cap or something.

If Honda were to reproduce the 3gee for a limited edition for one year as a classic anniversary edition I would buy one in a heartbeat. Though a new K-series motor in it wouldn't hurt either :)

Unless we have all the 3gee owners write a letter to Honda. Then we may have a slight chance.

haha no offense really, But a lot of people take "The power of Dreams" a little to seriously and live in a dream world when it comes to Honda. It will never happen, It cost a lot of money to design and build Cars... It should be "The power or amount of dreams in which money can buy".

Doing that kinda takes the joy out of owning an older car like ours. I like the fact that nobody can go out and buy a car similar to mine, because that makes it seem rare.

No auto company will re-start making a car from the 80's. Now, they could do a "retro-style" car like the Mustang and the upcomong Dodge Challenger, but I extremely doubt that, looking at the direction the Accord is going. I think it would be suicide of a company if they did that. Sure alot of die-hard 3G owners would love one, but the fact is, alot of 3G owners cant afford a new car, hence driving a nearly 20 year old car, so how could they afford a retro styled car that's brand new with a big fat sticker on it. Hell, I cant afford a new car right now, probably not for the forseeable future with the problems we're having at the moment so I'm not just talking any one down. I just dont see enough market of buyers for them to even consider it, seeing as how many people that love the Accord for what it's evolved into, would not want to go back to an era that wasnt all that great for the automotive industry.

What the 3G needs is more aftermarket support, and maybe some companies to step up in making OEM style repair parts that are not already available and have been discontinued at the stealership, like the damn cup holders and arm rest I want!!!!

hail yay hail yay
I can afford a new car but prefer not to put so much money into a car, I like to pay cash for cars or maybe a year worth of payments.
I will drive mine till it breaks again or gets wrecked, and then maybe put in a stronger engine with a five speed. Unless of course somebody offers me too much money for it, then I would look for another one or something close, I would love to have an Aerodeck Accord.

I wish I had a K, you got one in your inventory? I have some fog lights and a cassette holder to trade ....lol
that video was awesome, I cant stop watching it, but......
Dseries :rant: rocks on

after watching it a few more times I have decided that this car must have 18's to throw off the speedo a little bit to make that such and unbelievable run.
