      I bought my Accord because it was a comfortable car with a great reputation for reliability that fit into my budget. Practicality.

          crappy '96 accord - its cheap and reliable and free's up cash for other things. I've done the $50k+ car thing a half dozen times, I guess its not a priority anymore...

            I wanted a black Honda coupe that was a 5-speed.

            Then I found a rust free crx that only had 2 owners for 1k, that fit all of the above. Done, and done.

            P.s. (For once a good thread idea by CMK:icon_cheers: )

            88 Honda crx Si-B16 turbo street car, 06 Civic Si- DD

LOL. walking through Hazers and the body and interior was awsome. and the price was way way awsome. but it had 2 problems the motor was going and it had no rust. and i found out it wont have a salvage title, they never even put the title in there name yet, was there 3 days

                because I have a thing for chargers and this is the 6th one i've owned. I just like the way this one handles on the highway so I keep it around for when i feel like stretching my legs.

                  I don't really know, i thought it would be a sweet car, which i guess it is pretty nice. It was something different and fun. And damn girls love it.

                      As far as the Miata. I've always wanted one and had the opportunity to afford one after I quit smoking and got smart enought to sell my DSM.:icon_puke_l:

                        I'd always wanted a Mustang (at least since I was 10) and so I got a job to be able to afford one. Knew I had to get a v8 one since the V6's were gay, and this was the only V8 one I could afford at the time so I jumped on it. Though I don't really regret purchasing it, I wish it was a 5spd and didn't have a salvage title.

                          A Supra has been my realistic(or not so realistic when I first wanted one) dream car as long as I can remember. Too bad it wasn't the right time.

                          At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

                                  As far as my Suburban it was too hard to see out the back window of a Blazer with two dual 12" boxes (4 total) on top of each other so I got something bigger and better, since it was a Texas truck no rust and absolute perfect condition, my Grand Am was an easy choice......under 4grand and 35mpg, 5spd was a must it just came before I saw anything else, great work car cheap and easy to work on

                                  Hallorann: Nothin'! There ain't nothin' in Fargostreet. But you ain't got no business goin' in there anyway. So stay out! You understand? Stay out!

                                    Because it was something nice, within my budget, and right here in Fargo. Plus, Car & Driver named this chassis to its '10 best list' during all 8 years of production.

                                        because i wanted an awd, turbo car and couldn't afford a wrx at the time. plus I got a pretty good deal. I wanted something to work on, and I got my wish, but I wanted to work on making it faster not just fixing the damn thing. Although it's ran pretty well for the last 3 or so months. jinx
