My new gas saver. 04 accord coupe. I paid $0 for this car. Just did about 30 hours of book labor on a non mechanically inclined persons sn95. Only paid for minimum tax tags and title.
had a bunch of ricer stuff on it, like a body kit and carbon fiber hood. Took it all off. Leather heated seats and fully loaded. 140k miles. Should get another 300 out of it. Only thing was the title says salvage cause it was completely repainted and had new glass all the way around including the sunroof from a hail storm. I can't see that totaling an 04 honda accord but whatever. I love it. Just got though my first tank of gas and it gets exactly what Google says. 27-31 mpg!! I've had these k series honda motors come in the shop with no oil in them still purring like a kitten.
My my mustang was getting 16mpg or so and was my daily for the last 8 months. 75 mile round trip to work every day sucked in that thing. Put about at least 10k miles on it. Feels so good to know she's not racking up miles and staying nice and clean in the garage. And now when I work on it it doesn't HAVE TO BE DONE BY MONDAY MORNING!!!!! That's my favorite part of this beater.
pretty nice for free right?
