Hi all,
This is my first post.
Im from Adelaide. I havent bought a Honda yet, but plan to shortly.
I currently drive a 2000 subaru liberty gx wagon, but finding it too slow.
I'll probably get a second hand 03-04 Accord euro, luxury if possible and in black and manual. :D
Hope to maybe go on a cruise with some of you some time.
Sounds like a good site here.
Cheers
Shav

darkside??? haha
Cheers guys. Thanks for the welcome.
I must admit, you guys have some dam hot euro's here. well done
I test drove a euro on the weekend, and I must say they are quite a well built tidy package. I was very impressed wit the way it handled and drove.
At this stage, I dont plan on modding it at all. It will be a daily driver for me. I just want to enjoy the comforts and driving quality. im a bit over the modification bug, modified the hell out of some cars I used to own in the past so it really isnt my thing much any more. (btw Im nearly 30 and married)
Still learning about a different car is interesting to me, so if you guys can enlighten me with your knowledge about these great vehicles, I am willing to listen and take it all in.
I also have some experience in old skool fords and some holdens so if there is a need, I will be happy to give my unbiased opinion on htis subject should it ever come up.
Cheers guys, and thanks again.

thanks man. Im hoping to learn a lot. So far this forum is pretty good for all topics.
I'm a bit of an XF Fairmont fan but since my dad sold it to the wreckers, I've nothing left to bum around in.
The euro is a brilliant everyday driver, and it's got some pretty good handling for a heavy (relative to other Hondas) car.

Thanks again guys for the replies and welcomes.
I dont view the honda as heavy when you compare it to a 2L AWD auto subaru liberty wagon I currently have with only 92kw!!!
And coz I want a manual, I think it will make me feel a bit better as far as the power is concerned.
The Honda is an exceptional vehicle with class and refinement.
The old skool fords i will always love as purely muscle cars, agricultural, yes, but they have character which I have always been attracted to. Especially when it has a tough clevo or windsor under the bonnet.
But the jap cars are a different league which I have already had a taste, just would like some extra go with the flavour.
