i agree. i have an 01 and i had to get the one recall fixed and my front struts blew (normal driving, not dropped) at like 70k miles, maybe earlier, i just didn't get them fixed till later. depending on when the 01 was built, there were more recalls and tsbs for them.

I decided to go with the 2001! It was lady driven and 1 previous owner. Got it for 8700$ CND.

Thanks for all the help!

not saying anything bad here but i don't know if it is a good thing or not that your car had a lady driver and a stick. most of my friends are girls and about half of them have stick cars and they cannot drive them for ****. and no, this is not a generalization for all the lady members!!
was your car Honda Certified?

I was told the last owner of my car was a girl driver, dunno it that contributed to transmission gear grinds and other transmission related mishaps.
