1986 Honda Accord LXi review from North America
"It's a perfect beginner car for anyone and everyone"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear hatch back rams that hold the hatch back up don't work.
My PGM-FI light comes on due to a bad Oxygen scensor.
Tires are bald.
Windshield wiper lever broke.
General comments?
This car is great and is my first car. Nothing engine wise has gone wrong and its got over 200000 miles on it. It's a perfect first car and its got plenty of get up on go. My LXI idles high so when I put the car in drive it kind of slams in gear, but that's it. The person who had it before me wrecked the front end a little, but I fixed it no problem. I put a new stereo in the car which adds a new feel to it, along with nice new rubber floor mats. The car does great on gas it gets about 30-35 highway and corners and handles well. if anyone is looking for a first car this is the one to get. I'm getting brand new tires and painting it black so its going to look sleek and beautiful.
