Ive been wanting one for a while now because the stang only has 30k miles on it and didnt want to keep puting more on it. And I needed something gas friendly, lol. So i picked up a 99 2dr 5 speed accord. Got it for 1800. Has a new engine and clutch, both of which where done at my dealer and the car is in real good shape. Just needs a REAL GOOD cleaning. And now that its my DD my insurance actually went down too.

Yeah im actually really liking this car. It is the perfect Daily driver. Super great on gas super easy to drive. Really nice looking car. And very comfortable!

I have since yesterday. Changed oil, clutch fluid, trans fluid, put 2 tires on it, ordered a camber kit, Balanced all the wheels, Cleaned it inside and out, flushed the radiator, cleaned the chit out of engine bay with degreaser and pressure washer, changed air filter, pcv valve. All I have left is to change the power steering fluid and the brake fluid and it will be 100%. Oh and put the camber kit on it when it gets here,

I really wish I could change my s/n, lol that was way back when i started on this forum while I was in high school with a six banger stang that I thought was the ****, lol. Ive come a long way since those days,lol. Anyway yeah It is in good shape. And it runs totally great. For the driving that i do during the week that I was using the stang I was getting 16or so mpg. With this thing I got 28. Now I am super curious to see how this thing does str8 highway driving because I got 24 out of the stang str8 highway. This thing will do over 30 for sure.

wow.... low blow..... lol.... I still have and will always have the mustang ill have you know. Just no use putting more miles on it, its already at 30k miles. Want to keep it like that. Now it will come out to play every now and then but why abuse it for nothing and waste all that gas. 93, tires, and nitrous are getting expensive, lol

BURN hardcore. That is a nice ride for 1800. Wish I could find a deal like that. The rear end looks NSX'ish without a spoiler on it.
