    How long have you owned your accord?

    Well I know a lot of people have owned their accords for a while before joining this site. But its good to know how reliable these cars are. I've owned my 3gee since Sept 2002 but I didn't find this site until Nov 03. Funny thing is I had a few mods done already before I found this site lol

    Old? I guess I am not the oldest on this forum at 42, but I might be one of the oldest. I have had my Accord since July of 1989.

    Are you the original owner? Did you buy it new off the lot?

    I bought mine back in 1993 while I was still in high school.

    Re: How long have you owned your accord?

    My grandmother bought the LXi new at McNatt Honda in Lewisville in March of 89. She was diagnosed with advanced colon cancer a few months later and never really drove it again before passing ownership to me. When I received it there were 1,500 miles on the clock and it had been sitting in my parents driveway for about two months. I would rather not have gotten a new car that way, but I am still quite grateful. A 24-year-old kid in 1989, I was not about to run out and buy a $15,000 car. I still have the original window sticker.

    Re: How long have you owned your accord?

    I've owned my LX-i since July 2000, so just over 7 years now. My mom bought it from the original owner in May 1997. She crashed it in March 2000, it sat for a few months, and that's how I got it No regrets.... for a free car it's served me AMAZINGLY well... taken me everywhere I wanted to go and never once let me down

    Re: How long have you owned your accord?

    I think i bought my first one in 1997, second in 1999, and my third one which i still have in 2000 or 2001.

    I wish i could have bought one brand new off the lot. Im starting to feel like i have been around for awhile but even after buying my new legacy i still appreciate my accord.
