Default Bought some Honda's this month

I finally broke down and bought a beater car for my 90 mile round trip commute to work. It is a 1996 Honda Prelude, nothing special, just gets me too and from work and keeps miles off of the Z06 and Explorer and saves on gas. I have had it for a few weeks now and sure do like only spending $30 to fill up



I just bought an 05' CBR600RR on Friday and all I can say is DAMN I really like this bike.

Sweet. That car would more than pay for itself twice in a year considering the lower octane rating you pay for plus the mileage. You still have to laugh that you drive a Z06 and a 96 Prelude though. Just not something you see everyday. A lot of people that buy vettes break the bank and don't have any sense left. Talk about "Return On Investment".

I was kinda shocked when I saw the Hondderrrr and wanted to chuckle but remembered quickly about the Integra I bought to keep miles off the cars.. But its gone now so maybe I should have kept it with the retarted prices.. Get used to the bike so we can run!!

The Prelude has been great so far and I can't complain about only spending $30 to fill up

Pavlock - I'll let you know when I'm ready

bluestreak - The old v6 bird did fairly well on gas mileage but that was like 9 vehicles ago lol

BizZzatch350 - I like the Z06 the best too Having a corner lot with a long drive helps make room for when we have people over
