1989 Honda Accord LX review from North America
"Amazing reliability"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Radiator started leaking at 180,000.
General comments?
This car has truly been unbelievable.
Reliability is unsurpassed, in 230,000 miles I have done nothing but replace the radiator for $75. Air conditioning does need to be replaced.
Handling still is great, acceleration has never been an issue with the five speed.
There is no rust on this car and overall the integrity cannot be matched by any other.
I drive many highway miles and average 35-40 miles per gallon. Can't beat that!
