Hey, whoever wrote this review is on top of things. I just bought a 1992 Accord Coupe. It runs good, don't get me wrong... but here are the things I find wrong with it.
1. engine idles at almost 2000RPM when car is started, & takes at least 5 minutes for it to return to normal.
2. my driver side door handle plastic piece is completely broken.
3. my AC will be cold as ice, for 10 minute after I turn it on, after that I might as well just take the damn thing out.
So far, this is what's wrong. My cousin is the original owner of the car, and I bought it from him, and he's replaced all the belts, radiator, and some other things, so I hope I don't have anything to worry about (knock on wood).
My email address is jaime5238@earthlink.net if anyone has any comments.
Just recently purchased a 1992 Honda Accord LX, overall I love the car. The only problems I've had so far was the transmission. I had to replace 2 parts...2-4 clutch drum and torque converter, which ended up costing $1600.
