Which car should I get????

[mrhonda]

Well, now that I am forced to buy another car since the untimely death of my beloved Accord, there are a couple options I am considering....

A) My Dad has been trying to sell his oh so pimp 98 Accord EX V6 and basicly told me if I want it all I have to do is go to Phoenix, bring it back to Texas and just assume the car payments (a pretty damn good deal for that car!)

B) Just buy another CB7

What do you guys think?

[Tone-us]

Well don't you have a bunch of mods that were done to your Accord? If not then I would go for the 98. Just remember there aren't that many parts for the V6's.

[micksf22accord]

CB7 for sure

98 accord. def will last you much longer. cb7's are old you know that. plus to many common problems with the cb.

HELL NAW there shit cb7 is much better

The 98 is a lot newer, will have far less miles. You know the history of the car. Plus 200 hp stock, granted its an autotragic. Plus...the bodylines on the 98-02 are quite nice as well.

Get the 98, and get a beater CB to build a racecar out of.

If you want gas mileage and practicality, def. go with the cb7. The V6 sucks much more gas than the F22. Besides, you can get a cb7 much cheaper than a 98 Accord. For the price difference, you could do some pretty extensive mods or upgrades. That's my .02$

Just remember that the more mods you do, the lower your gas mileage will go.

I'm willing to bet the gas mileage stock on the cars are comparible.

Don't think for a second that I won't ever own another CB7, I will get another one. I was thinking if I go with the 98 I'm not touching it, it will remain a nice stock daily car. Then once its paid off buy a CB7 to mess with on the side, maybe a 2 dr DX or something and just build it as a balls-to-the-wall roadracer. hmmm...just an idea

[brownaznkid]

i heard that the 98-02 v6 trannys on the accords were horrible?

i dunno, but... i would say get the v6 anyway

[ACCORDianate]

I say the 98. 1st year body style= first year problems, however.

True, the 98+ have been much more problematic than the 97's and back, but it was mainly the 00/01 4 cyl Accords, they actually carry a 125K trans warranty. My Dad's Accord has 81K on it now and has a 100K mile Honda Care extended warranty so I'm not too worried. Even if the trans does eventually shell, I've done so many 98+ Accord and Odyssey transmissions....I can pretty much do them in my sleep. Not to mention, most of the common 6th gen problems have already happened and were taken care of by warranty...even new CV boots last year. Hell, and I just put a timing belt in it last time I was in Phoenix so it really doesn't need anything. The more I think about it.....the more appealing it becomes.

[deevergote]

The 98 sounds nice, but the CB7 is just so much more... CB7! I dunno. I'm biased. I DO like the 6th gen, especially the V6 Coupes. Still, the 6 is auto only (unless you can put the newer 6 speed into it...) The CB7 just seems to have more soul to me. Newer cars just don't do it!

[BBs91accord]

I've always like the V6 style. I like your idea of keeping it stock and then getting a cb7 on the side. Good luck....I wish I was in your shoes

[texasvtak]

Oh my god thats a tough one.. Id say go with a CB7 with the J30
