My previous ride was a Toyota Supra...loved it to bits but had to sell it - insurance was ridiculous and whilst it was a nice daily driver, I wanted a car that was a bit more luxurious.

So I've had my eyes set on a 94-95 Accord (5th gen?) and the 98-2000 Accord (6th gen?) since I turned 25 (August last year).

I bought myself a 1995 Accord in October and I was involved in a pretty bad accident about 3 weeks ago. The Accord was written off and I was naturally quite shattered.

Considering the impact and the fact I'm still alive, I have stuck with the Accord family and as of Saturday, I am now the proud owner of a 2002 Accord V6-L.

I'm not one to take pics and stuff of my rides because I have found it to be bad luck...everytime I take a photo of my car/s, something bad happens within the week. However, it's a nice ride and am pretty happy (although I have a question regarding the auto - hopefully it's ok).

Quite the opposite actually...given the impact and the fact I came out without a scratch on me, made me stick with the Accords. The car actually swung around and I felt like I was on a roller-coaster as opposed to an accident.
