The lease on the BMW is up at the end of the month so before car registration tax goes up and at the end of April we decided to buy a Honda Accord.
As usual the dilemma was what car to get and should we buy or lease. I was pretty sure I wanted to buy a car this time. I realize I have been very lucky to drive nice cars the past 5 years with the Porsche, Mercedes and BMW but I always hate to pay the outrageously high maintenance fees.
It also sucks when I turn a car in to think of all the money I could have saved if I wasn't making a lease payment.
I always wanted an Accord when I was in college and I liked the way it looks more than a Camry so my decision was pretty easy. I got it tinted the day after it was delivered. I will probably change out the headlights and lower it and get rims. I am still looking up what type of rims I want.
I figure it is time to settle in and keep a car for the long term...I suppose in 12-13 years this can be Jack's car!

You are kidding about the pimp my ride comments aren't you? rims, lowering, dvd player. you forgot about the intake and exhaust. how about headers and maybe nitrous? get some JDM stuff too while you are at it. LOL
roger-
i dunno about the dvd screens...but considering it.
lowering and rims is just a matter of finding the rims i like.
actually i was looking at an intake and exhaust today! hahahaha. i probably won't do that...at least not until the original needs to be replaced.
oh yeah, i will probably change out the headlights soon as well.
I almost forgot the most important aesthetic mod...the 3 ft high trunk spoiler!
