Sorry to hear about your problems. That sucks dude. But I wouldnt get a Honda. If anything id get a Ford.

So far all I had to do was replace the A/C which costs us an arm and a friggin' leg! But other than that the car is fine (could be that its an SE) I guess the A/C trouble is common on these cars but thankfully it has not broken again since.

I've had my SSEi for almost a year now, put over 10K miles on it so far. I've had to replace the plugs & wires because it started to miss. Just recently one of the pulleys for the */C disappeared on me while I was driving. The car was still drivable and I had it fixed . The rear brakes were making a thumping sound when coming to a stop, but it was just because of the brake dust build up in the drums. I dumped out the dust and now its fine. The car has 120K on it now and I drive it kinda hard.
