    I think the contrast against the white paint, of the tints, vents, mint fat fives, and DX trim is an amazing combination.

    Wow. This is awesome. A close race indeed. I want to thank everyone who voted for me and roodoo2 for the nomination.

    Looks like this was her last "Hoorah" before departing. I'm going to miss her like hell...but I honestly do not think she chould of gone out any better way. Thanks again guys...it means a lot.

    P.S. Was I the first DX AOM?

    That's got to be the cleanest living DX I've ever seen.

    Wow, that's absolutely amazing-that car does not look like it's 20 years old!

    Re: February Accord of the Month - MIK3

    Thanks again guys. I'm keeping in good touch with the new owner. He seems like a very cool guy, one that will baby it as I did. So that's a plus. And he works for a tire company, so new rubbers for the max = low pricing.

    That's got to be the cleanest living DX I've ever seen.

    Yeah, that's another thing that reassured me...he realized what he was getting, which was helpful in me letting her go. But yeah, I definitely should send him the link, heh. I'm sure he'd enjoy it.
