This car has given me quite a ride. I'm the second owner of this great car and I'm just under 160K. Has great acceleration and decent handling. Minor work is needed.

Favorite Features

Fun car and a great car for the kids

Review

I purchased my 1990 Honda Accord ex as the 3rd owner. Before driving I installed a new timing belt as sort of insurance for the motor and fixed the power locks for a little over $300. All in all car cost $2100 and love my car! The ex comes equipped with an electronic sport transmission ( shifts at higher rpm) and when you turn that baby on this car really moves! Even without it it'll shift at five grand steadily so you have plenty of pick up (limiter is 6100). This car is very reliable and has pin point handling. The car comes with wider tires than most imports which greatly improves traction on the corners when you really feel like testing her. Maintenance is simple and easily accessed.

Favorite Features

Electronic sport transmission low ground clearance rims and tires suspension (handling). great fuel injection; precise throttle response easy to check and change fluids big trunk rear seat folds down, and handy power doors, locks, mirrors and moonroof

Suggested Improvements

Cup holders are a joke fortunately you can fit 2-4 cups in between driver seat and center console firmly if you don't mind a bit of wet carpet disappointed in mpg i only got ab 24 on the freeway and twenty in town car only has four gears needs five not enough braking power needs rear disc brakes

Review

This my first car in Canada since I just arrived here, for 2 months I am using it I really am impressed on its performance it doesn't give me any problem yet, but I can feel that it will go along way, just got a change oil, power steering fluid changed and wiper blades changed. Thanks Honda for making me feel that I did the right choice.

Favorite Features

Moonroof, heaters, comfy, style, color and EVERYTHING!

Suggested Improvements

Review

I bought new as a demo. Even after 18 years with it being stolen twice, almost totaled once and with two other accidents, this car is super dependable. The exterior, interior, and engine have all held up well with regular maintenance. New radiator, three batteries, two brake jobs, a couple of power steering repairs from leaks, CVs, a new gas tank (service stripped plug!) plus maintenance is about all this car has cost me. I can't justify anything newer as this one keeps going & going and she still looks awesome! I use my AAA for my friend's newer car troubles. I can't believe I get offers from others now to buy my car. I think it has turned into a classic.

Favorite Features

AC. Good fuel economy. Drives fast. Easy to maintain (time & money!) Still feels sporty and doesn't really look all that dated for age.

Suggested Improvements

I wish my trunk didn't leak and my rear lamps didn't have water in them either. I've tried many things to fix but to no avail.

Review

Original owner. The most reliable car ever owned. 249,000 after 18 years. The manual transmission makes it more fun to drive and squeezes the most out of its adequate power. Has original clutch. Fuel mileage superb; average 30+.

Favorite Features

Reliability, reliability, reliability. Inexpensive to own and operate. Excellent 4 cylinder engine.

Suggested Improvements

Seat belts are awkward but that is not Honda's fault. Thank the Feds.
