HONDA / ACURA NOSTALGIA
Lets take a trip down memory lane...
Had this idea last night, all Honda and Acura owners post their history with the brands.
year/model/experience/end
ill start:
86 z50 minibike: my brother and i got it after begging our parents for it forever. broke my shoulder on it one day, that sucked! outgrew it and my brother traded it for a moped
not our actual bike, but it was very similar to this:
84 accord lx 4dr 5spd: was really clean and had aftermarket 13" wheels and fresh paint when i got it. i put a k&n filter and flowmaster muffler on it (waayyyy before f&f came out ) wrecked it and blew up the motor. junked it
mine was black, like this:
89 accord lxi coupe automatic: i lowered it on no-name coilovers and at the highest setting was still way low, awful bumpy ride too. had a kenwood deck and i added a kenwood 600 watt amp and a 12" sub. the engine was very peppy but the auto trans was messed up the entire time i owned it, would go to redline before shifting, slipped out of gear, blew up. the interior is what i miss most about it, it had the black dash with tan seats.
very similar to this, but slammed:
94 civic dx coupe automatic: when i got it it was really riced >painted ac vents and everything<, it had a panasonic deck and i used the kenwood amp/sub from the accord in it for awhile. it was a good car, but at the time i didnt need it, - sold it and made a nice profit
just like this, basic:
99 civic ex coupe 5spd: beat up on the outside but runs great. has an unknown aftermarket muffler on and sounds obnoxious , my first honda with vtec and im pleased with it. has over 190k miles and doesnt seem like it at all
how it looked when i got it, now has 97 taillights:
but thats the general idea, post up your personal history with the brand(s) and add pics if you have them. theres alot of honda owners on the forum, this could be fun

Re: HONDA / ACURA NOSTALGIA
well i had my first model when i was 12. looked a little like this.
then the yard got bigger, so we graduated to this.
then we decided to get some real power, and you can't find that in the honda world.

Re: HONDA / ACURA NOSTALGIA
First and only also most likely my last, ls/vtec turbo. Car was suprisingly quick, but a fucking nightmare to clean up from the previous owner.
Picture was from when the previous owner had it, nothing changed on the exterior anyway when I got it.
