1986 Honda Accord Lxi review from North America
"Great car for cheap price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A/c is out
Factory stereo did not work
Needed rear shocks.
General comments?
I bought this car 5 months ago with a damage front end for $150, I was looking for a "beater" car, something that would get better gas mileage than my mustang gt. I fixed the front end with junk yard parts for about $100. The engine has about 260k on it and it still runs strong, not one bit of smoke. The transmission still shifts great. The a/c did not work when I got it so I just took it out. But other than that there are not any other problems, this car was well maintained.
