Well, im now an owner of a 89 Accord LXi, auto (damnit), ice cold ac, cruise control, Power mirrors, power locks, power windows, just about every option imaginable on a 14 yr old car. Anyways, the car has alot of miles, close to 250,000. The guy had a 120 mile trip on the hwy every day to work for like 6 years or something, and thats how the miles added up. Normally theres no way i would purchase a car with that many miles, but the guy i bought it from had receipts from an oil and filter change every 3,500 miles, valves adjusted every 15,000, tranny fluid changed, new CV joints, EVERYTHING was changed on time. And i read a few stories on ehre of these cars going 400,000+miles, so if i could get a few years out of it i will be happy.
Its got a few problems though. The driver side power window motor is broken. Where can i go to get a replacement? Hopefully i wont have to go the honda place where i will officially get raped. And the alternator is bad, which is no big thing really. For $600, no way your going to get a perfect car right?
Anyways, i guess i'll just tell yal alittle about me. I'm taylor, junior in HS, i drive a 1968 mustang. Gotta built 306, fully restored, gets all of 13-15 mpg, so i needed another gas saving car to drive. Live in NC (dont think i put that down in my registration thing). Alright guys thats it for now, im sure i'll have plenty of questions as time goes on. If anybody can answer my ? about the window motor that woudl be great. Later guys.
