1983 Honda Accord LX Hatchback review from North America
"The best buy at this age"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Power steering went out, had to replace entire unit.
Brakes had to be fixed three times.
Fuel pump went out (I think) the mechanic said that was the problem, but it still has a problem somewhere.
General comments?
Great little car, besides the fact that it seems to break at least once a week. When it runs it's a dream. Looked brand new when I bought it (it was 20 years old) but quickly got hailed on, the same thing happened to my supra. You can read that review on this site as well. Car has good quickness for it's size, and feels really sporty. Very comfortable on long trips, but not having a cup holder is bad.
