Just became the 2nd owner of a $450 87 LXi
Hi everybody! (who didn't hear dr nick in their head?)
I just bought a one owner Accord with a nice rich patina. She runs real nice. The guy I bought it from has all is repair records from day one (214k miles). I bought her on Saturday evening and put in a new battery, ngk platinum spark plugs, air filter, changed the oil and did a sea foam treatment in the oil and in a vacuum line.
She seems to have good power, but since I'll be driving 60 miles a day I need to make sure I get the best power and efficiency I can.
I'll be browsing the site for more tips and whatnot. I've already gotten a peek and I'm real happy to have found this site!

bought a rear bearing assembly (precision brand $34 thru amazon) which should arrive in 2-3 weeks.
got some new michelin tires, 175 instead of 185, which I don't think is a big deal.
found out my valve cover gasket is leaking pretty bad, I'll replace that on Sunday!

Very nice find! I can easily set the aesthetics aside with records from day one. ;)
