Just bought a New Car!

Well, sorta!! Its the wifes 04 Accord EX..We leased it 3 yrs ago and, we were thinking of replaceing it this month, with another Honda, but after dealing or, trying to deal with the stealers, we decided to buy it a lease end.

Now I have another toy to mod, or as I tell the wife, "make unique" I've been searching the net and damn, theres alot of aftermarket for Hondas, never realized how much.

She tells me she likes it as is, so it isn't going to be ez, but we'll see. I have to get over the lighning strike expense first. I know its not a Toyota, so don't bash..Its the wifes car, and she likes the Hondas! I have to live with her, ya'll don't!!

Thanks Damon! U know I love white cars, so does the wife..its been a reliable vehicle since we've had it, holding value real well but, it sure is screaming for some 17,or 18" rims tho! Maybe a trunk lip too! ....now that I think about it the gunmetal 17's on the coupe sure would look good on it!! they'll fit it too, 5-100!

Isnt your coupe 5x114.3? so how would they fit 5x100?

Honda looks good and ive heard they hold their value very well, the salesman told my dad thats why you see Camry taxis and not Accord Taxis... But yea its a simple family sedan when i saw it nothing really jumped out at me that was "cool" but its a great car none the less im sure. Good purchase, its a keeper

My sister just got an '07 Accord but in black, and she loves it..i personally hate Honda, and i disowned her for a week but hey, her first car..i'm happy for her. But she won't let me touch it at all lol unless i put a "kickass" (her words) system in it (she loves rap lol) or tint the windows...(which i will do for her bday)

Congrats on your purchase!

Kinda looks like my g'fs 05 Accord Coupe LXSE. Same interior and exterior color. Same wheels.

I got hers tinted 30% before she bought plates.

Might add a Acura TL or CL rear swaybar.

Added a Sirius Starbase...

I hope to get the windows tinted soon, she'll not complain about that too much! Anyone know of a Honda site thats as cool a TN? I've visited a couple and they were dead, but that was years ago! (I lost all my bookmarks with a lighning strike!)
