I got into my Mechanic car and off we went to check the ride...... Enter 2007 Honda Accord V6 W/Navigation. My mechanic checked the engine, go into the car for a test drive, i opened the door and peeped into the car....based on what i saw i told him "I want this car!!!" it was a naija used DC as clean as it gets, infact the owner didn't drive it much and the only reason he wanted to sell was because there was no space in his car lot again for cars, so he had to sell of the least. it had been packed for a while as the tires were not to good again. about 10% limo tint, 17 inches Rim...we argued about the price for 2 days then eventually settled. Oh my, oh my...for you to appreciate what i am talking about, i am someone that likes speed when i need it, not a reckless driver but need power available exactly when i need i , overtaking, accelerating from zero etc, it was not really about top speed but what happens in between. took the car to get 2 tires, removed the 2 worst tyres, did some checks here and there, and its time to tke this baby for a spin. I lost my virginity that day to this car! WTH! this car moved effortlessly from 0-100 - 160. it was as if i was seating on a keg of gunpowder that can explode at will. i was like what have i gotten my self into, the car tires were wobbling at a point so i back down, will have to go for balancing and alignment. the fuel consumption is just a tad above the 012 i sold of, funny thing is the tank seems smaller than the other 2 accords i have used. I dont and will never regret buying this car. 244 Raw Horse Power, I raced an E Class 06 (didn't check the specific badge) yesterday and at a point i had to back-down because i knew the dude was getting embarrassed and he might throw caution to the wind and cause an accident, we were neck to neck with him a bit in front, just a bit. I am so so so impressed, in love and sold out to this performance level. Now to those talking about super charged and the rest, I don't have problem with them, the issue is we have been told a lie for a long time about this type of cars, including the super charged 4 cylinders, our Kasheem association will always discourage us from buying these rides, but henceforth, as far as the car in question is not faulty, i am not buying an [b]Ordinary [/b]4 cylinder again, laiye laiye.

king406:True, but some of us dont have the funds yet for a 2014 or 15 4 cylinder super charged, so we make do with the V6 alternative for now |
femi9naija:Just make sure the particular car is sound and not "Aloku" |
Forgive My Typos A little Background I live in Abuja and the roads are good. The road network is also good. not much traffic during when i leave home in the morning (6:30) and when i return at night (8 or 9pm). i have always been a 4 cylinder guy majorly because i felt i don't have enough maintenance money to take on anything more than 4 cylinders. i started driving in 1999, got my first car in 2010, a Toyota corolla D shape (former bank Corolla) truth be told that corolla never stopped for once on the road while i used it and it even has an engine problem then, shorting oil, so i had to top up the oil periodically. AC was Ice cold. then the Kubwa Expressway had not been expanded so i usually enter jungle to get home (those that know that road will understand) through all these, Toyota never disappointed me. I needed something more trendy so i went for Honda Accord 2004 Ex 4 cylinder, Deep Green on cream Fabric. slightly shaded windows, i was in love as the interior is a far distant ahead of the toyota, the babes were smiling at me i was happy. i traveled a lot between Kaduna, Abuja and Minna, at a point i had to change the compressor of the AC, and also fix the fuel pump (the one located under the back seat). At this point i have to chip in that i don't suffer my cars, i service when due or before, i change small stuff quickly, as i learnt in Accord, if you don't fix little issues it becomes bigger affecting other components. I am a semi - petrol head (if there is anything like that ), or a car enthusiast, I love cars and i have always dreamt of the day i will own my own German ride. but money never show lol. I moved from the Accord 04 to Accord EXL 2012 4 cylinder, i bought it at 42k true miles, black on black. all i can say to this ride is WOW!, i can now push my top speed to 200 kph, and my cruising speed now moved from 130 to 160 when travelling, the car was as sound as it gets, 0-100 kph in about 8 secs, roomy interior, deep sound from the sound, rattling awesome sound @ 5+ Rpm, i thought i have finally found my soul mate... The came along my second child...family got bigger somehow we needed another car. so i decided to sell it off add money and get 2 cars , one for me , one for my babe and the kids. I specifically told my mechanic that i want a v6, he tried to dissuade me like he did the past 2 Honda Accords, this time i refused! No Enough is enough, no be mad man dey use v6 na, i must taste am too. We searched and searched, i didn't see one clean enough, we combed jij, olx, Nairaland. then one evening he called that someone one wanted to sell one ....Brb Dinner |
i got my first v6 about 3 weeks ago... Wow brb will update by nite. I will never ever driver 4 cylinders again |
