1998 Honda Accord LX Sedan review from North America
"Best Accord ever built..."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Absolutely nothing. Neighbour's kid accidentally broke the driver side glass with a golf ball. Otherwise, nothing.
General comments?
Great car. Great value for the money. Thousands cheaper than a Camry whilst providing similar room, a more powerful engine, better handling, and more attractive styling.
Though all of the above are personal opinions, I think the value of the car is a rather obvious one. Get the VTEC since there's really no need for a V6. Drove them both and like the VTEC better for its sound and power delivery. Yeah, the V6 is more of everything, as well as fuel consumption, so an I4 VTEC wins some points there.
