I've put 9100 miles on the Accord since buying it in mid October 
luckily I fill up once every 2 weeks 
saving money there! lol
Damn really first post here?? lol I thought you would've found this thread sooner. What's new with your coupe man?
No love for 4 cyl on that forum? 
V6 only huh!? Haha jk
I haven't found a decent accord forum yet, azine seems to pretty much have all makes covered! lol
Looks great! Trade the Speed6 in for the new V6 Accord coupe

Stylewise, the 7G is my second least favorite when it comes to the Accord coupe (4G notchbac...er...coupe is my least fave). But Gen7Milan's looks sharp and clean. Very nice.

4G (wagon) and 6G (coupe) are my favorites. Not saying the 7G is my least favorite though, that probably goes to the 8G (no offense 8G owners).

I loved those too. Now youve got me thinking about how Id rank all the iterations.

My favorite overall is the 7G AV6 6MT coupe. Then the 6G and 4G coupes following close behind. Yeah, I'm a coupe kind of guy.
Too bad thieves love them as well....

I almost forgot about the 7.5G V6-6 Sedan. That one I absolutely love.

That's my favorite, followed by the 6G coupe.

thanks fellas..
i may be leaving the 03 rear end behind soon for the updated 06+ tails/trunk/lip/bumper.
havent made that decision final. i just like the idea of no spoiler, and it flows much better with the updated rear.

Usually I hate wing spoilers but yours works well with the lines on the lip kit, especially on the side skirt.

IMO:
The 7G coupe only looks good with the wing or lip spoiler.
The 7.5G coupe only looks good without.

too edgy/busy.
i like the way the 7.5 trunk has a lip on its own, opposed to the 7 trunk rounding down.
so there's no need for the spoiler.
the 7.5 rear lip is also a bit busy for me, but i dont like the way the 7 lip fits on the 7.5 bumper.

hey fellas, quick question
should i even bother with going to honda for my oil changes? my 1st service is due but the closest dealer is like 35 miles away.
i always used firestone with my acura and never had a problem. as long as i use the same oil and same shop i should be good, right?

When I'm lazy or pressed for time, I'll bring my own oil and filter to an independent shop I've been going to for a long time and have them do it. They charge me $5-$10. Maybe you can do this too.
5 qt jug of reg. oil at Walmart is like $12-$15 + $3-$5 for a filter + $5-$10 for labor = same price as dealer.... and if you stock up on the oil when there are specials, rebates, etc... even less.
There's a $20 rebate right now for 5 qts of Quaker State Ultimate Durability. Walmart sells 5 qt jug of QSUD for about $23 - $20 rebate = ~ $4 with tax.
Just a thought.

No way to change the oil yourself?

It's in the mid 70's here
perfect weather to mess around with the car. I have a small car jack but I think it's time to upgrade.

With the ride height of the 8G, you dont even need to jack the car up. Just turn the wheel to the right, slide the drain pan under, and drain it.
I never jack up the 8Gs in my family, and the Odyssey is even easier.
