Bought a Honda Accord EX in 2001 for $20,000 w/o taxes/fee/license

Sold it in 2003 with 38,000+ miles for $15,000........

Resale Value was awesome!!!!!

Owned 4 Honda's before the Fit:

1999 Civic LX
2001 CRV
2001 Accord LX V6
2003 CRV

Always a great resale value. For years whenever it got time to put new tires on the car, I got a new one.... LOL

2004 Honda Element.. the most versatile vehicle i have ever owned - almost bought another one - but decided on the fit instead (better gas mileage).

This dates me somewhat:

1978 Accord
1978 Accord
1981 Twinstar (traded for Helix)
1982 Civic 4dr (traded for '89 CRX)
1989 CRX DX (note 2)
1990 Civic DX 4dr
1990 CRX Si (note 2)
1994 Helix (note 1)
1993 Civic Si (note 3)
1999 CR-V EX (traded for '02 Civic)
2002 Civic 4dr EX
2003 Honda watch (note 1)
2005 CR-V EX
2006 HRR lawnmower (note 1)
2007 Fit (note 1)


Notes:
1. Still have
2. Passed on to family member and still going
3. Getting new engine as son-in-law never changed the timing belt, even though I told him to! Youngest daughter is going to get it.

Hondas owned before the Fit-

82 Honda Civic sedan (great car- only $7200 new)
84 Honda Accord sedan (not so good, used and falling apart, got it as hand me down from my father)
01 Honda Odyssey (not too bad, lots of warranty problems and issues, bad transmission replaced, bad electrical, bad rear window motors, bad seat belt wear/fraying, bad glove box screws, bad radio volume, bad rear spoiler weather strip, etc). I have 7 year extended warranty.
06 Civic EX sedan (OK, but the 82 sedan was better and more fun to drive)

Overall, Honda is doing OK as a modern car company.
I don't really care for the fuel hog SUVs and big trucks.

A Fit hybrid makes sense.
So does a Fit Si.

I had a '95 Accord but I sold it 2 months ago :( It was my first ever car owned on my own and will go down in my history books. I had lots of memories with that car but can't wait to start new ones with my Fit ;)
