Not at all. There are plenty of tastefull or "clean" looking Honda's. Its just a dying breed. lol'


BTW you have to watch out, some of those non tastefull modded honda owners are now buying A4's and doing the same thing to that car.

I know right? Makes me sad lol. But yeah this one was really nice lookin. The color reminded me very much of Hibiscus Red, dark tint, had all the bump strips and trim shaved, very low, nice machined mesh-style wheels, NO fart can. It was actually really nice looking. I almost wanted to follow the guy and thank him. It was a really nice switch from all the bullshit I see rolling around here on a daily basis

Was it an older late 90's Accord? Because the 94 and 97 I owned were both a dark red.

Yeah it was. Might have just been factory paint then?

Yes, just their standard dark red color.





It was the nice color they had on those years.

Here is one in a coupe.

I never would have thought Mike Hood had a soft spot for Accords. You learn something new every day

That body style was very close to the A4, it just didn't have the turbo or AWD. lol
