I am new here
 
Hello - Last October my '96 626 beast had the auto transmission failing, so it was finally time to get serious and find the car I wanted!

I was blessed to find this little beauty as a same-day trade-in at a Honda dealership. 2002 EX with less than 60,000 miles :D for only $10,000!

I really wanted a sedan so I could open the rear windows from the master control panel!

I came here to learn how to take my dashboard apart in order to do a clean install of a new stereo unit. One that I can plug 4 gig worth of music into for an upcoming road trip. And yes - I've already got the link to a YouTube How-To video showing me everything I need! Thanks!

I'm really happy with it!

Welcome to the forums and nice pick up.

Wow, $10,000 and u said "Only?"
I'd sell you mine for $10,000 and its already got a HU installed ;)

Anyways, if you bought an automatic, fraid you're looking into the same grim future as your previous car. Transmission problems
Fairly common in the 7th gen series

Gosh - I forgot to mention the lovely 5-speed manual gearbox! http://www.pbase.com/tomfarr/image/109270955.jpg

Low mileage - one owner, yeah, I was pleased with the price.
