Yep, they look like some asshat bought the LX and put the V6 rims on it...until you realize they are 60+ years old and bought the car that way.
That is what i am planning to do when the current tires wear out on the hubcaps.

But yah i am just gonna keep it for the days when my BMW breaks down

well, what the heck is your budget?
what are your needs?
what are your wants?

how can we chime in, if we dont know anything about what your wants,needs, or your budget looks like?


its like asking; chocolate, vanilla or strawberry?
every one will have their own flavor, but it doesnt help you much.

Wait for next gen Accord and buy that over either of the other options. Weren't you just in another thread asking about a new SUV? Did you win the lottery or something?

Audi V6. The most pricey they have since you didn't mention money therefore money doesn't matter.

As long as you're old, completely senile and out of touch with the real world and all cars for that matter, the RLX would be my pick..
