Bought a 1994 Honda Accord

For 500$ blindly off the internet back in April cause it had no rust and 238000 KM cause I had no time to check it out and the wife was nagging me for a car. I replaced the windshield and the exhaust and I had been using it somewhat sparingly, but I took it for a 10 hour drive last week and a 12 hour drive friday feeling confident that it couldve went forever. Its the cheapest car I ever bought but damn this is a good car. Ill post pics later.

They are made here in America now for the most part. Some are made overseas and then shipped here also. I bought a new one a couple of months ago.....first time Ive ever purchased a foreign car but only did so on the reputation of being a Honda.

I bought a 91 accord 3 year's ago for $750 runs like a charm in the 3 years I had it I only spent less then $500 on maintenance for it. Has 280 000km's
These older honda are awesome the only problem is the body tends to rust out.
I recenlty bought a newer infinty but I'm keeping the honda for a winter beater

Ill be turning 40 soon and this Honda is the first non american car Ive ever bought. Hows that for loyalty? or masochism?
