Our August Modified Customer Car of the Month takes us down south to South Carolina where our affiliate, Jim, has modified a beautiful 10th Gen Honda Accord to fit his lifestyle of daily driving on weekdays and more "spirited" mountain driving on weekends.
When Jim was ready to purchase the Accord, he had requirements that a new car must meet. He told us, "It was my first brand new car I purchased. It filled the checklist for everything I wanted in a daily driver."
When asked what is his goals were when he purchased the Accord he said, "To build a reliable and fun daily that I can take on long trips and spirited drives up in the mountain areas."
His future goals for the car include a separate set of summer wheels and tires.
