I just got rid of my CD7 that was a piece of shit. I wanted to mod it, but my Accord was a piece of shit & I sold it for $1000 as well. I wanted to put an H22 in mine, but it wasn't worth it.

Yeah man, who did ya have steal that baby for ya ?
Almost too good to be true.....good luck ! They are a nice ride and worth putting some time and effort into.
I have a '95 Accord that there's no way I'd part with, it's a keeper ! Comes in handy when our TL decides to take a break or get finicky at times.

You decide your withholdings yourself. Claim as little as possible if uou want a big return. Claim a little more if you want a few bucks more on your checks. You can be single and claim up to 5 but then you'll owe Uncle Sam. When single I claimed 0 and saw nice returns. Now I could claim 5 but only do 3 so I don't have to pay anything an still get nice return.
