OK... this could quite possibly be the smartest thing I could do... But i need to find a used 3door 5spd for the winter.... (Oh god I really should'nt have gotten rid of mine but i dont regret it, I have just recently begun to be enthusiastic about my rx8... [thank you forza 2])

So far heres what I've looked at A few different honda civic coupes and hatches... (I hate the fact that a CRX with less than 1000 in mods can still smoke me, and I've tuned everything else so... I guess its time to try them???)

But what I keep coming back to is... the accent... I miss it so bad.. I still know what one sounds like when it starts up by heart... But now.. they're everywhere... its ridiculous...

I'd say what caused this is I saw the lady who bought mine driving it the other day... & it looked good....

So what do you think how much you think I could get a used gs with power & 5spd or used SE 5spd for????

You could try eBay but then you run the risk of getting a car with a salvage title. They're on there and cheap too!

You need a winter car in Oklahoma?? Just get a good set of winter tires for your RX8.

from tulsa huh? i'm from chouteau (east of tulsa) what they said, use the RX8 w/ some wintery tires. i don't think i've seen an accent used for sell yet. call automax over in broken arrow, they may have a used one there. i've only had mine for a month or so, and would take sticker for it. (but it's not for sale :) ) if i see one around i'll get the # and pm you. i work in BA.


heck yeah we need cars for winter (past 2 years we've had hellacious ice storms) they sucked.

Well it turns out.. that the money fairy has thrown an opportunity my way... what It turns out is that I'm going to be getting a 1986 (the good looking generation) Honda CRX... (I know but I'm actually REALLY excited... throw a b16 [what was always in my opinion the g4ed equivalent engine] and I know for a fact it will beat my rx8 while still getting awesome gas mileage) the accent is going to have to wait awhile maybe they'll get their head on straight and do like a "Hyundai HyPer Accent 1.6 turbo" and I'll be there with cash in hand

the only reason is I'll be buying a fully running clean as **** car for $200.00. I cant see anything more opportunistic that that... lol
