HONDA
UPDATE: New pictures of Li'l Green Honda! They're actually pictures of the actual car! Not doctored!
I have owned three first-generation Honda Accords in the past, and Chris and I now own a fourth. I love these cars, and would recommend them to anyone as a low budget, reliable, sporty car. Far more powerful than any comparable economy car, I have actually raced against a Lamborghini Countach on the freeway (I lost miserably, of course, but I kept up for a while). If I were ever to give in to the redneck tendency to collect dead cars, they would all be first generation Accords so I'd have plenty of spare parts.
The First Generation Honda Accords that I've owned have been a 1976 Honda Accord Hatchback (Frankenstein), a 1978 Honda Accord Hatchback (Gold), a 1979 Honda Accord Hatchback (Blue) and a 1980 Honda Accord Hatchback (Li'l Green Honda).

NOTE: I have never been a big picture taking kind of guy, and have never even owned a camera until recently, but I like to play with art programs, so you may notice that most of these are actually modified pictures from Honda publications. Bear with me and forgive me for not having the real pictures. I can't go back in time and take pictures of these cars. I think I've done a good job of modifying these pictures to look like my cars, and everyone who knew me when I owned these cars agrees.
