Great Car! I still love it.
Alabalan, 05/16/2002
1992 Acura Vigor LS 4dr Sedan
I never expected to keep a car this
long, but I bought it new and 170K
miles later it still runs beautifully.
It IS like a sports car. I have
standard transmission which I had to
replace at 130K. Small back seat is
the only drawback, but if you rarely
have passengers, it's a perfect car. I
look for it to last to at least 250K.

Too reliable

1992 Acura Vigor GS 4dr Sedan
My car has 174,000 miles on it and still
runs great. The ride is still better
than most new cars and no suspension or
any other major parts have needed
replacement, it still has the original
clutch. Unfortunately I have no ligit
excuse to get a new car.

The Forgotten Acura

1992 Acura Vigor LS 4dr Sedan
The vigor is a wonderfully designed BMW
style car from Honda. See the lists of
cons vs pros in this review for an
objective review. If I wrote a text
review it would be bias since I own the
car and would tend to favor the pros.

I wish this thing would die

1992 Acura Vigor GS 4dr Sedan
This car is great. I've had minor problems with it. It now has 166K miles on it. I won't die so I can't get a new car (wink-wink). Compares favorably to a 3-Series.
