1986 Honda Accord LXi review from North America

"Great car for the money, super reliable"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Since owning it I've had to replace the brakes all the way around.

Replaced one inner tie rod.

New muffler (my fault bottomed out in the snow and ripped it off).

Four new tires and an alignment.

The passenger side mirror doesn't work, but that's an easy fix.

Also, depending on the incline I park at, the sunroof will leak in heavy rain.

General comments?

I love this car, sure it's older and the suspension isn't up to par anymore, but it still tracks beautifully and runs great... Not bad for $1800 (price I paid plus the work done)

The engine doesn't leak a drop of oil and starts every time, built 100 times better than my "old" neon's engine, which couldn't hold oil for more than a day!

Car accelerates great off the line, pretty zippy for only 120 hp.

I've got some rust on the rear wheel wells, but other than that the body is in pretty good shape, the paint hasn't even faded at all really.

My advice if you can find one of these in decent running condition, buy it, these thing are built like tanks!
