February 2007 Nominations

[deevergote]

Well, here we go with another year! If you haven't figured it out yet, the AoM competitions run from February through December, and throughout the month of December, the Accord of the Year is picked from all the AoM winners of the year.

As the Accord of the Year for 2006, aww_shiet is not eligible for AoM nomination in 2007. The other AoM winners from 2006 ARE allowed to be nominated. However, as they have already won the competition once, it is not recommended that they are nominated. Let's get some new cars recognized!

I am nominating hondatuner4267 because the car is clean and fairly unmolested. It is such a nice car, and has rear discs to boot! Plus, the man behind the car is great and willing to help whenever it is needed. Keith has been constantly buying parts for this over the past year, and now he has all of them on. There is also more coming for this car. Keith just keeps progressing with it.

I'd like to nominate Mike's Accord because his car defines "sophisticated"..Rosewood Brown Accord with subtle mods (nothing tacky), not to mention the blend of JDM and EDM parts that he has on this car..A lot of mods have been done to the car, yet he manages to keep all of them intact and flowing together nicely..And to top it off, when someone sees this car on the street, they would've never guessed the 200hp DOHC VTEC under that VIS carbon fiber hood..And when they do realise it, it'd be too late, 'coz by the time they do, they could only see his EDM rear fog in a distance, way ahead of them, leaving all of them in the dust from the 18" Dronell wheels..And this is just the beginning..Mike's got some evil plans under his sleeves for this year, so watch out!

I would like to nominate AccordTypeR. I beleive his car is eligible for AOM because it is simple, yet looks fantastic. Not many people could make an Accord look this good without dropping loads of money on it, but TypeR did just that. The two-tone black and white looks incredible, and while the performance area is rather untouched, it still manages to be quick.

Id like to nominate yeamans17's CB7 for AOM. his car is definately making some serious progress, especially over this last year, 2006. Everytime i visit his members ride thread i am surprised to find MORE goodies and installs done all by him and the help of his friends. i always look forward to it!

not only is his car turning into something beautiful and amazing, he also contributes as much as he can within this community, which is a help to other members, OLD and NEW.
