Commenter dwegmull went wandering off to the dark side recently. Let’s face it, Hooniverse is kind of like a gateway drug. Sure, it seems harmless at first, but before long you’re spending three hours on Name That Part; then you’re sitting around, jonesing for Last Call. And before you know it, you’re out on the streets as a Streetwalker.
This sad story actually happened to dwegmull, and we gotta be honest, we’re not feeling too bad about it. He stumbled across a classic old Honda Accord CVCC. Wait… what? Didn’t the CVCC become the Civic? So does that make this an Accord Civic?
Someone with more knowledge about Japanese cars than I needs to chime in and explain this for me.
