JDM Accord!
This is akin to someone posted pictures of their "modded" Bonneville/Lumina/Taurus to me. Sure they can be clean and all, but there's more to automotive style than just not being fucked up by age or some dipshit kid throwing rice on it.
And I just think it's funny if it's "JDM" it's supposed to get respect kinda how fbody and mustang guys nut themselves over export tail lights. As far as I can tell they're only "cool" because they're from a different market. I'll pass on the candy corn look.
To each his own, it's all just opinion.

That's kind of like Americans getting excited about a modern (04+) Malibu....
Oh, and I like clean JDM cars too:
I just don't get into Accords...
.
^^ agreed with all stated above.
i enjoy performance imports as well. Hell before the T/A i had a VERY clean and tastefully modded S13 240sx, mainly appearance, no fartcan/hacked sr20 swap. of course this was before the whole operation D drifting bullshit you see nowadays... where the car barely runs, primered to hell with gutted interior revealing red paint everywhere and a removable steering wheel

Hey i used to have one of them too! It was the first car i tinkered with too... It starts like this...
Then somewhere in between all this it gets LOWER and SLOWER
Then i started "Modding" it
Then it ends up like this if you truly act/think your car is fast...
Hope this taught someone an important lesson... Keep it at the track, even if you are in a lawnmower, its still enough to hurt... A lot... Ask me how i know...

I love like that means something. There could be 2 other people with Kia Rios for all we know.
My buddy ran at the track the other night (1/8th mile) with a stock 150ish hp gutted Integra at a blistering 10.31...said he was the fastest in his class...faster than what? Our trailblazer (I6) probably runs 10.30's...or better!

[QUOTE='WHEELS';15381509]i don't even think japanese people like JDM **** as much as some americans do..
that being said, never been a fan of accords, but clean i guess. Just tell him to throw away that stupid license plate, or move to japan already. Reminds me of being a kid and pretending to be a power ranger nonstop until my parents told me they were all gay.[/QUOTE]
ROLMAO!
I don't get it. why spend money on an import like those, when you can find an american sport compact or hell, even just plain ole compact car that will crack their asses. I would drive a Neon, Cavalier, Focus, Stratus, etc. over any Accord, Integra, Civic, etc. I know its my own opinion/taste, but I used to love pulling out my bone stock '99 ACR Neon, and freight training every single import like those and they were well modded. When I turbocharged that car, I wasn't scared of ****.....it wasn't a 10 second car, but mid-high 12's with just 8psi boost, and exhaust aint bad.......and none of the turbocharged imports stayed with that one unless they were HIGHLY modded. Mind you this was 12 years ago...........
