Replying to: corvette (Jul 12, 2009 7:00 pm) I'd be looking at a 2 or 3 year old (previous generation) Accord EX V6. Great cars, great features, safety, performance, lots of trunk space, and last few years can be found with Navi. I find that Honda Navigations are among the easiest to use too. Lots of power too with a 265HP V6. While working at Honda I had a few older Maxima owners buy Accords because the size and performance was right. |

Replying to: roadburner (Jul 13, 2009 10:29 am) Of all the cars I've ever driven, or owned, inc. my M6, e34 535i & 540i's, e30 325is, 850i--all great--there was "something about" that E30 318is that got to me. Shoulda bought it, but I was on such a "test driving every interesting car possible" craze that I didn't follow my gut. It was pretty, red, had a lot of fun bombing around on back country roads..... |

I was thinking about it earlier and realized that I've had my Pilot 2 years today. It really doesn't seem like I've owned it that long. I still enjoy driving it, its been a relatively problem free car, the few little things are more quirks than anything. My only real wish is that it could tow the TT, but I guess no harm in that sitting for yet another summer. The Pilot has just over 40k on it, I only put about 1k miles/month on these days, so the miles are only slowly racking up. I have a 6 year/120k Honda Care ESC on it so any problems it might have will be covered. To sum it up, I'm still very happy with my Pilot and will probably keep driving it for several years to come. Still on the look out for an old truck to pull the TT though so the CCBA membership isn't in jeapardy, lol.  BTW, hubby's 09 Civic (duct taped bumper and all) has been a wonderful car as well, he's very happy with it. He's catching the Pilot's mileage pretty quickly, I believe the car has around 23k on it at the moment and isn't quite a year old yet.

I bought a 95 Civic Si coupe that came in on a trade to keep my CCBA membership active. But it's not for me, it's for my 18 year old sister for her 19th birthday. She better like it! It's been almost a year since I had the Jeep Patriot. Although it's a boring car unless you're taking it on forest trails and in the bush, I find it quite handy to haul around large items, and it's very nimble and easy to park because of it's small size. If I were to replace the Jeep today (which I won't cause I still owe on it) it would probably be a tossup between leasing a new MB C230 and a VW Passat CC. Both are for under $500/month taxes in with about $2k down. But that's just dreaming for now. My aspiration of owning a beater from the 70s has been put on hold too for now  as we bought a condo  and have a baby due in 2 months Looks like after this my CCBA will be dormant for a couple more years
