Used 1998 Honda Accord Sedan Consumer Reviews
Best Car Ever!
This is my second Honda Accord and I will probably always drive one. It is the most economical, dependable and attractive car I've ever driven. The body is sleek and it handles very well. This car runs forever and is so economical on gas. Accessories are so varied, creative and cool it makes it easy to dress it up.
The best car ever!
This car is wonderful. It has 101,000 miles and it still has the best pickup even with a v4 engine with 164 Horsepower and it has a very quiet engine except for a little road noise and a little bit of noise but nothing big at all. The ride is as good as an Acura and almost as good as a Toyota Avalon or a Toyota Camry. It is a better ride then the Mercury Grand Marquis or Mercury Sable or Ford Taurus or Focus. The Accord has the best seats, radio, and cd player

Honda Peaked with this car
IMO, this model is the apex of the accord. Excellent use of interior and trunk space, sensible but attractive design, good all around performance from the 150 hp 4. Well equipped and comfortable. Kids are getting too big to fit three across in the back, so need a larger car. only 103k and runs great. Paint bad, clear coat peeled, my only complaint. Expensive to repaint well, stay away from the forest green color. But i think Honda has gone downhill with the accord, making it larger, softer, and less attractive with each new iteration.
Locks and Transmission
My locks have been malfunctioning and I have not been able to resolve the issue. Also my automatic transmission will not always go into gear. Sometimes the button on the shifter will not allow me to push it. I have owned four Hondas and this is the only car I have not been absolutely thrilled with. Of course, this is the first one I purchased new and I paid up for it. Maybe that explains the problems...
ACCORD EX 4cyl
Styling still looks good in and out after all these years. Good handling car, though has excessive road noise that penetrates the cabin especially on rough surfaces, not a problem on our same year (98) Toyota Camry , also not as reliable so far with 98000 replaced egr sensor @ 62000, cat converter @ 80000, & just recently replaced cv joints, will soon trade for a Toyota
