1991 Honda Accord ex review from North America
"Best generation of Accord produced"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air conditioner condenser failed at 290,000 km, drivers side axle boot tore open at 315,000 km. Other than that nothing but routine oil changes.
General comments?
VERY reliable transportation. Thought of trading to a 2000 Civic, but this car works so good I don't want anything else. Fuel economy at 40+ MPG on the highway, air blows ice cold, seats are quite comfortable, however lumbar adjustment is recommended. Mine has a lumbar support mow out of the highline model that I got from the wrecker. Upolestry shows absolutley NO signs of wear. Transmission seems to get confused when going around some corners as the computer doesn't know what gear to select so it kind of revs up slightly and then selects gear. Sometimes annoying.
