1998 Acura 1.6 EL Sport review from North America
"Under priced for the car you get!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The front speakers are not up to the level of performance I would have expected.
General comments?
The quality of this car is excellent considering the price, this vehicle defines value.
For a small 4 door car it handles really well.
The engine could probably use another 20 horsepower and then I'd never be able to wipe the grin off my face as I drive it.
Overall fit and finish is in line with many upscale vehicles.
