Great car, horrible transmissions.

This car is a great car but the transmissions are notorious for going bad. It has a sun roof which is awesome, plenty of storage space, great first car.

Honda Accord 1998

This is a '98 Accord it's not a perfect car it just needs some tlc. It has a little damage on the door because i locked my keys in the car , the right front rim is a little damaged because of a car being too close but it runs great and i've put a new radiator in it the tires are new and have a warranty on them 262k miles it's well maintained

98 Honda needs a lil tlc

Car still runs good but I don't have time to fix it. Need to sell it and it's a little too small for my family so trying to get something that is going to have us fitting comfortably.

213000 miles and going!

The only problem is that the finish has worn off, otherwise it's been a great car for us since 2001! Had we been able to garage it, I think it would have been better.

Honda peaked with this Accord.

I couldnt ask for a more reliable car. At almost 20 years old, it starts up and runs just like the day I bought it. Its spacious and comfortable and has a large trunk. The sound system is amazing and it handles like a dream.

Clean

This is a really good car. I have already 200,000 miles and still run better than many newer cars. No problems with the suspension ,no problem with the engine, the gear box is smooth. Winter time the engine starts immediately (I live in Chicago) Only I can say is Honda-Forever! The only problem I had is the window opening system (the motors work ,but the teeth gear is worn)

Most reliable car I've owned

I have owned several cars and this would be the only car I would recommend. I have owned my car for 17 years. It was hard to replace because of the overall value. Very reliable

Great Car

This car has been in my family since 2001, my dad bought it used and then handed it down to me. Car has over 260000 miles on it as it drove from Rhode Island to Boston everyday for over 12 years. Car is fantastic, only issue is the timing belt went late last year and since then there have been a slew of issues but you can attribute that to the car having over 260 k on her. Shes still peppy and gets going quick sometimes it shifts a little later than it should but still runs fairly well. With ease it could be doing a lot better had she been maintenance better (or at all) but 260k+ with little money into it and no maintenance by far an excellent machine.
