1999 Honda Accord EX-L review from North America
"It does not get any better!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Since purchasing the car I have had virtually no problems with it.
General comments?
This car has performed flawlessly. The only money I have spent is for tires, brakes, gas and the recommended timing belt change at 100K miles and one battery. As I am able to do my own work the only cost has been parts.
With a 5 speed, leather, firm suspension, and good handling I call it the working man's BMW. At the same time it has been a great commuter and family car.
I taught 4 daughters how to use a stick shift and I still have the original clutch. It has to last 2 more years until I get them through college and then it will be replaced. The new car choice will be simple. Another Honda or an Acura TL.
