High-dispersion spectra of seven near main sequence stars of MK spectral types F6 to G0 were investigated with differential model atmosphere analyses relative to the sun in order to obtain metal abundances and microturbulence velocities. It is shown that three of the stars hitherto assumed to be metal-rich from photometric narrow-band observations (9 Com, 14 Boo, and o Aql) are only marginally overabundant with respect to the sun, provided their microturbulence is properly taken into account. It is found that all the metal-overabundant stars examined are younger than the sun. Apart from a general metal over or under-abundance, the details of the abundance patterns are the same as in the sun.
