yea you did, but its because you got it from a dealership. dont worry my dealership does it to people all day long. but at least your Certified Honda Warranty kicks ass.

but seriously thats a nice car. your gonna have alot of fun with it. is it leather?? ive rarely seen an Accord 5spd with leather at work.

the best in the world shouldn't even that much. you can probably get the whole honda line with that much.

update: they sold the accord on me today. because i didnt get the financing fast enough. (its a bitch to work 3rd shift and try to buy a car in the daytime) i slept away the day and found out they sold it while i was asleep.

but no probs, just back to lookin again.

found a graphite 03' 3.2 tl automatic with 38000 miles for 16,300

also found a really nice bimmer i like a lot. a silver 02' 325i for 16,900 with 53000 miles on it. i really like it but im afraid of the cost of upkeep on a bmw. and im afraid it will kill my tips delivering pizza.

anyone know if im breaking the bank with upkeep costs buying that bimmer? if not i might just bite the bullet and try to go for it. plus its a hella chick magnet.

i saw a beautiful black 1999 540 for 17500 with 89000 kbb says private party is like 16 on her with 10k less miles.kbb says the 99 328 is like 11 so used its like a 5g difference,but well worth the $$$
<----knows from personal exp. one boy had 90's 5 series,other boy had a late model 330.no comparison,would take the older 5 anyday of the week.

5 series is a much bigger car than the 3. If I were going to get a BMW though, I would get a 3 series just due to that is there car as far as driving fun and it will not kill you too much to maintain her. They are still way more expensive to work on and maintain than a Jap import car. But they are nice looking/driving cars.

good luck

90's 5 series are slow except for the 540's.
I don't think the 330's can come near the performance of a 540.

well im caving in, i cant wait any longer, im gonna buy a new car tomarrow. its going to be a 06 Mazda3 S Grand Touring, with bose/moonroof/6cd, spoiler, and sirius radio. only thing i havnt decided on is the color, either Black mica, Titanium silver, or Velocity Red. (my last 2 cars were red). im leaning towards the black on black look i think.

will post pics if the dealers dont try to rape me with high ass interest rates, buying it at invoice so i know im getting a good deal.
