1987 Honda Accord EXi review from North America
"A very quick runner that still gets 36 miles to the gallon"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to replace the usual things, brakes, one wheel cylinder, a ball-joint, and two sets of tires. Overall, the car has been very reliable and relatively inexpensive for upkeep.
General comments?
The shifting in the five speed is direct and smooth unlike a lot of other cars I've owned.
The handling is very good if you use a good set of 15" low profile tires.
But they are known as an EXi not LXi as people call them. LXi is an aftermarket parts model that autoparts stores use.
