1990 Honda Accord DX review from North America
"My best purchase ever!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The main relay went out this past summer in the heat.. no real problem.
The distributor cap had to be replaced before a tune up due.. would not start when it rained.
I seem to wear out the brakes often even tho I am not a pedal rider.
It has gone through myself and an teenage boy who drove it hard, totaled twice, and it is still in good shape.
General comments?
This is undoubtedly the best car I have ever had.
It is fairly simple to work on if you are mechanically inclined.
I wish I could find one as reliable and this one in the future.
