#1706 of 1787 To replace or not replace the transmission by florida888 Jul 17, 2006 (4:31 am)
The transmission on my 98 V6 Accord coupe EX went out with just around 96K miles on it. Otherwise, it was a great car. I've read that repairing/replacing these transmissions may cost $2K-$5k. I have since purchased a new car and the Accord has been sitting in my driveway. Wondering if it would be worth replacing the transmission and then selling it, or just avoid the hassle and out-of-pocket expense and sell it as is. If I choose the latter option, not sure how much it is worth. Any opinions? Thanks. Replies to this message: louisn (Jul 17, 2006 4:51 am) kamenrider (Feb 13, 2008 4:07 pm)

I know there are extended secret warranties on certain defects. It amy be a shot in the dark--but it can't hurt.BTW, a private mechanic would be the cheapest way to go if you can't get help from the dealer.
#1708 of 1787 06 Coupe tail lights by timothyaw Jul 27, 2006 (5:35 am)
Why oh why do the updated 06 coupe tail lights look like the ones on the Ford Taurs?? For 06 they "squared" off the top of the tail light. It looks hideous to me Replies to this message: oldmansi (Jul 27, 2006 2:07 pm) qbrozen (Jul 28, 2006 7:11 am) timothyaw (Jul 31, 2006 3:45 am) qbrozen (Jul 31, 2006 5:44 am)

Replying to: timothyaw (Jul 27, 2006 5:35 am) I don't know, but I think it looks pretty good to me. Just my opinion.

Replying to: timothyaw (Jul 27, 2006 5:35 am) squared off?? You sure you are talking about the accord??   Looks like a Taurus???   Let's see... a triangle vs a half-circle ... hmmm... Replies to this message: timothyaw (Jul 31, 2006 3:45 am) qbrozen (Jul 31, 2006 5:44 am)

Replying to: qbrozen (Jul 28, 2006 7:11 am) Well I've looked at the two side by side, and YES to me it does! This '08 redo can't come fast enough I think! Replies to this message: qbrozen (Jul 31, 2006 5:44 am)

Replying to: timothyaw (Jul 31, 2006 3:45 am) i'm showing you the 2 side by side right there in my post.   well... ok, not really "side by side" but rather top by bottom.   but, hey, you don't like it, you don't have to. just don't believe that you will find too many folks who will admit to not being able to distinguish between 2 distinct geometric shapes (triangle vs half-circle).
#1713 of 1787 accord tail lights by louisn Jul 31, 2006 (7:33 am)
It's the front of the Taurus that is less than attractive anyway--NOT the tail lights. They look like the 2006 Accord coupe's tail lights which are modern and classy .

Replying to: rob3201 (Apr 17, 2006 7:28 pm) Has anyone else responded to you since April???   I have an appointment today with a dealer body shop to see if it's "normal" . . . and I already did complain to Honda America Corp. I just bought it in Aug. 06 it's now Sept. 06 and I'm afraid I got screwed!! I just washed it again last night and was going to wax it and noticed even more of the "blotchy" spots you're talking about. Mine looks more like when you towel dry the car with a damp towel and it leaves marks from the damp towel.   I'll let you know what the dealer says next week.   I sure hope it's something fixable!!
