Re: 2009 Accord of the Year: thegreatdane
I think it really means thumbs up. I use it in a different context, ever since I seen that one gif -:P(|)-.
Anyway, I was just saying the car is a sexy beast
Re: 2009 Accord of the Year: thegreatdane

Congrats....You earned it man....
Re: 2009 Accord of the Year: thegreatdane
Congrats on the win. Great 3g, well deserved.
Re: 2009 Accord of the Year: thegreatdane
Wow. Thank you for the kind words guys! I didn't think my sedan was going to win this so I'm very honored. The other cars were all awesome. I know most of them have a lot of hard work behind them and they deserve the title just as well in my opinion. It was difficult for me as well to decide who to vote for.
And I hope to have a new strong contender for the AOY when I finish my Aerodeck some day :)
Re: 2009 Accord of the Year: thegreatdane
your sedan is on my short list of greatest 3geez ever.. well deserved win
