1996 Honda Accord LX review from North America
"It was a fair price for a reliable yet boring car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has really gone wrong with this car, it's been really reliable.
General comments?
The car handles a lot nicer than my 1990 Ford pickup, but hey, that thing has 230,000 miles on so anything handles better than it.
I like the reliability, but the car is exceptionally boring to drive, it has no spunk, the 1996 needs a larger than 4 cylinder engine.
