Hello, i just wanted to know what everyone drove before they got their S, and if you at all miss your old car. I used to drive a 1997 Mercedes-Benz C280 Sport, Black/Black...fully loaded, system, alarm etc...The car was a blast to drive, and the thing i miss most was seeing it after a good wax, and the stereo (the one in the S is a little under par for the price of the car)

If you have pics, put em up.....

Here are some of mine:


Custom Intake work.....dont even ask.....


.

OK, thats it....

I drove a, 2000 Accord coupe, 5 speed, it was red. I loved that car, it was totaled. A flat bed tow truck rear ended me while I was stopped. The tow truck was doing about 45/50 mph.

Anyway I love the S more.

1997 Honda Civic CX Hatchback. I was going to keep it as my daily driver, but I ended up not driving it much at all after getting my S. So I gave it to my sister. Great little car.
