Over the summer I got my hands on a very nice Honda Accord SE-i Coupe. This car is loaded with leather, bose system, and a 5 speed manual transmission. I would like to know what you all think of it. I paid $2500 for the car and it only had 123,000 miles with a new transmission already installed at 115,000. As you can tell, I put a performance exhaust on the car. It gives the Accord a nice sound and I think it looks good. .Just let me what you all think.
Thanks,
Micah

Ha,
I know my car needs vacuumed. I am a college student and just got home for thanksgiving break. I just washed the car today and I didn't have time to vacuum it yet, sorry. BTW- It was 30 degrees when I washed it so I wasn't thinking about vacuuming it yet. My hands were numb but the car is worth that. Thanks for looking.

:crying: :bow: I WANT ONE, DAMNIT!! Ok....I'm calm now...

That's a sweet looking car dude! And my favorite SE-i color too: Brittney Blue...MmmMmmmm, YUM. Looks like it's in really good shape. Just take care of her and she'll give you many more years and miles of dependable service, not to mention extreme sexyness :D Oh yea, don't forget to vacuum too :tongue:

Nice color. Other than the fact that your floorboard is a bit dirty, the interior looks great. Is the leather still intact in the rear as well?

My interior is different than yours. Most of the Sei that i see, have the same interior as your. How come mines is different?
By the way bro, hot looking car! I wish mines would be a coupe and not a 4 door, but I still love it. Whenever you get some extra $$ get a short shifter man. Mines was like that and I hated it.

Does yours have a sunroof????? I can't see it............


PS. ** Lower the anntena man! ** :D

That is the stock interior that came with my car. I think that the
4-door model came in different colors than the 2-door and I the interior is different also. My car actually doesn't have a sunroof (which has prob saved the leather on the armrest and the seats) and since its the coupe, not power locks either. Its funny that a scaled up car like that doesn't have power locks but hey, what can you do. I will be sure to lower the anntena the next time I take a picture of it. Believe it or not, the lady I bought it off of was the original owner and lived down in North Carolina most of her life so she took real good car of the car and it was in a good climate. I feel bad for the car now because it has to suffer the western PA winters and shitty roads. Thanks for taking a look and let me know if you have some other questions. I am going to post a pic of the interior (Vacuumed) and the engine in the near future. Thanks again,
Micah

It looks to be in real good shape and Sei's are hard to find in good shape. The drivers seat looks like it has been redone to me because it looks to be in excelent shape. Nice car cant wait to see more mods.

Dude, just go to AutoZone and buy their intake. It comes with everything but the filter ( I think). All you gotta do is cut like 3" of the tube and that's it. It would fit perfectly!

I have no clue why my car never came with a sunroof. I was reading around the site and not too many of the 2-door coupe came with one I guess. I hope someone here can explain a this a little better than I can. Thanks for looking and keep those posts coming.
Thanks,
Micah

I must agree w/ you man. It is pretty clean, specially the leather..........

Wow. That car looks great! With a car like that, I'd be hesitant to mod it - it's a beautiful example of a stock 3G. Then again, it's an amazing base to set some great mods off with!

That was the one on ebay a while back, right?

hey micah, when i pulled out the cabin harness from the lxi for my efi conversion, it did have the moonroof relays and the wire going back to the roof from the passenger side rear wheel (inside the car i mean). but it did not have the moonroof switch or the moonroof itself. That is way too puzzlig considering the relays being present and no roof or switch? that was weird. but that was a sedan. i did come across a hatchack, lxi, that did not have a roof either. never saw what was under the passenger seat, but it just amazed me.

To Mike D and smufguy...
Mike D: No that is not the one that was on ebay. I was driving to actually go to a classic car show in a near by town and on the way there, we had to take a detour and there was this accord sitting in a parking lot with a for sale sign in it. I knew it was an SE-i from the wheels that were on the car but I really wanted a 5 speed and never would have thought this one was. I was so lucky to find it. The lady was the original owner on the car and took good care of it. The car had only 123,000 miles with a new trans at 115,00 and I got the car for 2500 bucks. The car was also from North Carolina most of its life but now its in my home town of Beaver PA. Thanks for the question.

smufgy: That is really weird about the sunroof relays and everything. I never would have thought the setup would be like that.

Thanks everyone for the posts and keep them coming.
