    End of my 3Gee

    My 89 Accord LX-i Sedan is no longer in my possession. The tranny crapped out; wasn't anything I could fix myself or afford to have fixed, had no place to store it, but before I could donate it to charity for a fat tax write-off, my stupid apartment management had it towed away. Wasn't worth it to me to pay the $250+ to get it out, so I signed over the title and got my crap outta the trunk... It had 224,xxx miles at the time...

    So sad to see it go...

    But I replaced it with a 2000 Civic Si in Electron Blue Pearl.

    Anyways, thanks to everyone for all the help along the way... You've all been great!!

    Bummer he towed it man...you should've gotten your ass in gear quicker and donated it!!! I love that color on the Sis...I've thought about doing a paint job that color, but I'll probably stick with white. You don't have to leave the board, if that's what you're implying...but regardless, enjoy the new car!!

    There... I uploaded the only pic I have as my avatar.

    It looks 90% stock from the outside, and the things that are different would only be noticed by real car-guys (or gals).

    Then there are a few more goodies sprinkled about inside and underneath. :super:

    It's kinda like driving the Accord, but times a thousand...
