...cause all the others cars we looked at have been a lexus, an acura, and a few other hondas, and the only reason my parents didn't say yes to that is cause they're auto.first you're telling us luxury cars, then you're talking economy... make up your mind; will it be lexus or cheap stuff?
oh and they don't want me doin anything and i mean anything to it at all

the fart can is going to be the biggest signal that you've done anything to your car - besides, this is a lot cheaper -
I think at this point I'd let them get you whatever they want to and then leave it alone. Save up your cash for something better when you can afford to do so. Having a 5spd will make the car fun enough for now. Unless your parents are/were car nuts at some point they'll never understand the need to tinker and mod. They'll see it as a waste of money. Which it is but so is any other hobby. Anyway, an Accord will prove to be a good reliable car which at this point is probably the most important deal. You'll save cash on repairs and gas which you can later put towards a better project car.

hey! i'll have the accord tomorrow march 8. i guess i have to pay half now, don't know why my parents decided that, but i have to pay about $3000 dollars, but tha's cool. I won't do anything to it until I own it. Thinkin of puttin a turbonetics turbo on there when i have enough money later this year or next year, and yes torbs it will last that long, lol. There's also this cool site www.streetracer-accord.com with pretty inexpensive parts on there. Would you guys recommend going to advanced autowerx for installation of a turbo kit or go to sls?

I'd really like to see ya do the turbo :rolleyes: . -
the accord's 5500 was 6000 but talked em down, a lot huh? but with tax and everything it'll be about 6000. you know they do have a turbo for that car that's about a 200 hp gain and it's pricy but i'll have enough money at the end of the year or beginning, if u don't believe me go to turbonetics.com. oh plus it's from imports plus where they're usually a little high priced, but the only thing wrong with the car is a turn signal light out.

I doubt the stock engine would hold up at 400 hp very long. -
that's why u would replace the internals, retard, jk lol. but the car retails for 6450 and if u can add and subtract like handoex, then that would be a 1000 less than book, wouldn't it, could u check my math please, jk lol. is that ok now mr blue jays, sir? I wouldn't want to piss off the spelling bee champion of the world, u know? oh and by the way i checked my spelling this time, sir!!!

well see my parents don't trust ebay so it's kinda impossible for me to buy a car with $10.84 to my name.
-
hey man the point got across, didn't it? anyway what kind of name is bluejays, see that time I put the two words into one, did you notice that sir? I mean for a canadian baseball it's still pretty gay, but for an american person, you are american right? jk, but seriously though it's a gay name!!!!

how many times do i have to say this? my parents don't want me to have a little hot rod. that should be enough times don't u think? i don't have anything against anyone except for the canadian, bluejays, but i don't like to repeat myself!!!

your parents obviously don't know how to deal either... look at what a similar car is selling for on ebay, and then don't pay more than that plus... 15%
go to the dealership with the car you want, and wait until a salesperson talks to you. say you're interested in said car, drive it, and say that you want it. offer $xxxx and wait for a reply, typically a chuckle and denying that it can be done. when they say they can't do that, walk.
DO NOT GIVE IN, you walked right in, didn't waste any of their time, and offered to buy a car for less than what they were hoping to get for it. you would have been an easy sale, but you're walking away... they will stop you and try to deal with you.
