..........you will start to see less and less 7th gen. on the highway over the next few years. Mine will be paid off by then......I can do a few mods, while keeping my car in excellent shape. I will then have a more unique car that isnt seen at every stop light :banana:

Are you expecting the cars to vanish or what? :lmao:

They're out there lol, and the only thing that's going to lessen them is improper care or an accident.

Well the coupes are less ubiquitous than the sedans so I've been happy overall. Add to that I have a manual special edition, which I keep clean/polished/waxed, and properly maintained. I hope to be getting a decent price on it next year when I leave the country.

The number of 5th and 6th gens that are still out there is huge. I highly doubt 7th gen accords to become a rarity unless it is discovered that honda cars sneak into your house and slowly poison you in your sleep. Their resale value is high for a reason and there aren't enough totalling accidents to take enough of them off the road to make a significant dent in even 5 years. I expect to see 7th gens in surplus for the next 10 years, just like every accord before it.

Provided the 7th gen. engines do well over the long run, you can definately expect a large population of 7th gens on the road for at least another decade or more.

as long as the K series engines are as good, if not better over the long haul, then yes, there will be a lot of 7th gen accords out there in 10 yrs.... :yes:

accords are one of the most sold cars in the US. no matter wat your going to see them around anywhere. if u even look at a 6th gen or 5th gen. they are still everywhere you go.

7th gens will be around for a long time. There numbers will stay strong.

I'm really enjoying seeing soooo many 4th gens still on the road. And many of them still looking fantastic.

I hope the 8th gen brings back hondas build quality and internal pride to the levels of the 4th gen accord and 5th gen civic days.

to quote myself in another thread, saw more 4th gens on the highway to NC and back than 5th gens.....

4th gen > 5th gen??? :naughty:

i know that some will disagree with me..... :)
