1999 Honda Accord LX review from North America
"Overall, a good car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The front rotor is warped at about 150,000 miles, and the brakes have been squealing since 150,000 too.
The leather in the driver's seat is worn and the paint in the front is looking bad. Also, the body is wearing down.
General comments?
The car performs quite well. I've gotten it to 60 MPH in 8 seconds, but it doesn't has a lot of passing power. I've gotten killed by various Crown Victorias, Grand Prix's and other American cars.
The gas mileage is good, probably something like 25-28 MPG on the highway and 23-25 MPG in the city. Don't run the air conditioning or the car will eat up gas like it's nothing.
I'm 17, and the car has been quite easy and fun to drive so far, but I'm thinking about getting a Town Car myself.
