1988 Honda Accord LX review from North America
"Reliable, reliable, reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Not one thing!!! This is definitely not a Ford...
General comments?
I bought this as a cheap college car, and it has now become my cheap work car. There is no way I can rationalize getting rid of it. I drive it daily and am constantly amazed at how it just keeps going and going without a problem. It runs and drives like a car with half the miles. It is not a rocket by any means, or a chick magnet, but the MPG is in the mid 30's, and it has never let me down.
Highly recommended.
