Although SAAB will always be my top preference, I came to the conclusion, that for the moment the SAAB 9-3 Sport Combi is a bit to expensive for my budget and it would not make sense to get it right now. Maybe in 2-3 years.
My 2nd option is Honda Accord but I was a bit disappointed to see the bad looks of the wagon version. This years Geneva Auto Show revealed the New Honda Accord Tourer which obviously looks so much better. I cannot explain why I am fan of wagon cars – probably because of “family-car” concept and also the comfort and extra space you have for long drives and holiday road trips.
However, getting back to budget consideration and to the fact that my 7 year old Skoda Fabia really needs to take a rest, I believe the best choice for me will be to get the current Honda Accord sedan(not the 2008 version). Why? Well 2 main reasons – 1. I don’t like the wagon version of the “old” model and 2.introducing the new Accord, Honda will have to drop prices to the older model. Considering that I am not a fan of changing cars to often and of investing extra on little repairs and improvements, I think it’s only natural to go for a new car instead of trying to bring a much cheaper used car from Germany.
What do you think? Should I get the new Accord, even if it’s more expensive and improvements are not overwhelming? Should I reconsider buying a new car and better get a used one?
Here are some pictures of the new Honda Accord Tourer 2008:

geneva is great this year so far. already looking forward to next year.
judecand dupa aspectul fizic avut la cumpararea skodei si aspectul fizic actual pot trage o singura concluzie : SKODA FABIA DAUNEAZA GRAV SANATATII !!! sper sa ai mai mult succes cu honda asta acordata.
bafta
PS : ce ne mai place mancareaaaaaaa
Cautam de mult raspunsul la intrebarea “de ce m-am ingrasat?”
Multumesc ca ai adus lumina asupra acestei enigme. Iata, deci, inca un motiv puternic pentru care trebuie sa imi schimb masina :)
ca tot veni vorba :
eu imi doresc sa ma ingras un pic si ma framanta o problema : ingrasarea se manifesta la nivelul tuturor organelor? la tine cum s-a manifestat? mercic
uniform :) tu, in schimb, ai o constitutie care in cazul unei ingrasari ar produce doar o ditamai burta
hm.
inteleg.
merci de info.
nu pot trece cu vederea tenta rautacioasa din raspunsul tau dar am sa o pun pe seama INVIDIEI.
MORi mah!
:)
Thats a cool little six speed hatch-back. I wouldn’t even consider it a wagon that thing looks smaller than a Honda Civic hatchback.
Nicholass last blog post..The Security Provided By Auto Bill Of Sale Forms
are fucking kidding me? How can you say that the Accord Tourer is smaller than a Honda Civic 5D ?
new accord tourer is a fantastic car. i own it until september. the full optional exclusive advance model. it’s as good as german cars and technology is at top of class and even more. Drive assistance tools, feeling with the road, comfort are all at top. believe me if you are planning to change keep your choice to honda accord, tourer of new model is good looking too. aggressive, sporty, young. no better then this one for the price requested. auto of the future….
bye
