Three Weeks old today and loving it!
(Preview)
My new accord is three weeks old today! This is the 12th Honda we have owned and it is definately the best. The Basque Red color looks great when its clean. Thanks to touchless car washes and Quik Detailer it's not too hard to keep clean. I'll take pictures of it soon.
