    Just wanted to say Hi...

    Hello Everyone,
    First off, I should say thanks for putting together a great site. I just picked up my first 3rd gen Accord and I've already benefited from the information on this site.

    A little about the car...It's a one owner black 88 LXi hatch auto with only 20,694 miles. No rust and the exterior and interior are in great shape. The best part is everything works. I'll post some pictures when my post count allows. The car has spent it's entire life garaged and has been driven a total of 300 miles since 2005. It belonged to a friend's mother who bought the car new in 88 and due to her age, hasn't been able to drive it for the last couple of years.

    I'm not really sure what my plans are for this car, but I'll figure something out.

    Welcome from San Jose, CA! Sounds like you got a nice hatch there. Can't wait for some photos of her( or him either way). If the car is already that clean I'd so keep it as stock and minty as possible
    Low loud lovin it!

    Here are a couple of pictures from last weekend. These were taken early evening with my cell phone, so the lighting isn't great.

    Wow, a find like that is everyone's dream. Welcome from Ohio.

    By the way, everyone, has the 5 post count requirement for posting photos been dropped? Here's a case where photos were posted in the 2nd post of a new member.

    Edit: Nevermind about the photos question. I just read in the other thread that the restriction has been removed.

    That looks pretty minty! I love black hatches! It has great mileage on it too!

    By the way, what's that button next to the cruise control for? I'm just curious since it looks to be about the only thing besides the rims that isn't stock, lol.

    The button next to the cruise control is the factory fog light switch. Except for wheels and window tint, the car is completely stock.

    Wow. I guess that just shows how many factory 3G fog buttons I've seen. Nice find.
