The G-Ride

So i helped my grandmother make her last car purchase.


We were getting amazing Employee discounts on 07 Left over Accords in August..

She ended up getting a black/ivory 07 EXL-V6 for $23,200 otd (amazing i know) and did a 3 year lease on it.. Her lease is around $250 a month..
It changed a little since the last time i posted something about it.

She went from driving her 99 Toyota Camry XLE-V6, with over 200k on it..--Which she kept..


She said that the Accord is much better then the Camry as far as handling etc. But she misses the smoothness of the transmission in the Camry..


Sorry this worded wierd-- I just got back from being off for 2 days at work, and im swamped, SO i just thought id post some pics..


Her windows are 11%-- She LOVES them..

She said the only thing she might put on it is a spoiler, but its not a *must*



This was after she and i washed it etc..

Sorry the pics are so fuzzy.. I forgot my digital, so they were taken with my cellphone lol.. (Red Razr from last year lol)

beautiful pics of the car.... :wave:

black is such a great color when it's clean, but a PITA to keep it that way... :paranoid:

Looks good:thmsup: I think honda transmissions typically shift harder than toyota transmissions but I'm sure she'll be more than happy with the car overall. An accord is almost always a safe bet

Hondas give more of a "SPIRITED FEEL". :)

there is an article on here about honda ATs, and why they have failed on the 6th gen so often.....in that article, it explans why the honda ATs are "rougher" than the other ATs out there.....

looking for it now....

Nice! If I didn't read the post, I would have thought it was yours based on how the car looks (the tint). Older people around my area usually don't get car tint.

go granny go! sweet ride!

nice choice for grandma. Next would be the hover round I'm guessing?

Lookin' good! Black looks so sexy on a car, especially with tint. I wanted the black one until I saw the graphite pearl next to it. It's still a dark color, but it doesn't show the dirt as much.

Hope grandma enjoys the new ride.:thmsup:
