hondaracer33 : 1990 Accord EX

I would like to nominate hondaracer33 for August 2007 AOTM. I have personally seen the progress of this car for the past 2 years, and it seriously amazes me of what this car has become. Thanks to all the efforts that Mike has put in to this car, she now has a perfect balance between performance and handling. In addition, the variety of rare JDM and EDM OEM parts on this car have also improved her looks dramatically, while keeping her elegant characteristics at the same time. Last but not least, under the VIS CF hood lies an H22A1 with all its 5 short gears, ready to scream from behind anyone and leave them to eat its dust. Can't help but leaving them feel a little bit ashamed that they just got schooled by an OG Honda family sedan.
