1988 Honda Accord exi review from North America
"OK, but paid way too much for it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Engine ticks and sounds bad, power steering loose or something makes horrible squeaking noise only at idle. Clutch failed then worked again. (wierd)
General comments?
Got desperate cause couldn't buy newer car.
(insurance would have been 340 a month Canadian)
got way ripped off $2200. runs good goes fast, but sounds horrible.
I was bored and I jumped a curb then it felt as if if the clutch went because wasn't grabbing gear let it sit for 3 hours then it worked fine.
Had better last me at least a year without major repairs.
Bottom line is I got ripped off.
