1987 Honda Accord DX review from North America

"Very good car, dependable 2nd car, parts are very cheap. Plus Honda reliability.."

What things have gone wrong with the car?

I replace only the radiator cap and the fuel cap.

The battery light turn on sometimes because the belt is bad.

The rear passenger side drum brakes make a metallic sound when brakes are apply, the idle speed is 200 rpm up.

But aside that everything is fine and working in the car. The paint is bad and looks like somebody hit the car from the side; drivers side. Only the back quarter and the left front fender gets the hit but nothing that bad it can be fix it easy.

The lifters and the valves makes the common sound for a car of 21 years old. The engine leaks but not a big deal. The cruise control doesn't work but who cares.

General comments?

I pay $900.00 for this car with new clutch, new a/c, new p/s pump, new carburetor, new after market exhaust and a sony xplod cd player with ipod ready connector came with the car "nice deal". To replace my almost dying 1998 Chevy Malibu until I can do a budget to buy something better.

It needs new front tires and rear brake shoes, but aside that nothing wrong.

I spend less than $25.00 bucks in buying the radiator cap, fuel cap and window tint.

211,119 miles and still kicking, good gas mileage between 27 to 30 mpg.

On highway it feels smooth and pretty stable. Good steering feeling and shift very easy.

The seats are not the best on comfort but for a car like that they are very good.
