1994 Honda Accord LX review from North America
"A solid reliable smooth driver with a touch of luxury"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car needed routine maintenance at 90,000 miles. This included:
- new tires
- new constant velocity (CV) axles
- new timing belt
- new gaskets
- new spark plugs.
General comments?
Every time I drive this car, I'm reminded of some new way the engineers were thoughtful.
At 130 HP, it's not a race car, but the power plant is robust enough to launch the car to 80mph with no trouble at all.
Freeway cruising is such a breeze. The car doesn't shake or creak.
The acceleration is smooth, and the Accord retains the tight cornering and suspension I got used to in smaller cars.
The cabin is roomy (especially up front) and the layout of the dashboard is excellent.
If you're a person who enjoys tactile luxury, this is a nice car for the price. Everything has a solid feel to it. Older models sometimes felt a little plastic and thin. This is no longer the case.
The body lines are very attractive. It's still a compact sedan, but this is no longer a boxy grandma's car.
