1997 Honda Accord EX review from North America
"VERY Reliable, Great Looking... HONDA"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced Radiator myself - 120$
That's it.
General comments?
I just sold this car a few weeks ago, and I miss it so much. In my opinion it is the best looking accord in the 1990-2001 range.
It was extremely reliable, only maintenance that had to be done was brake change & oil changes.
The car isn't very fast, but it isn't very slow. With the manual transmission it was fun, and it had zip where I needed it.
The seats how ever only become uncomfortable during long trips.
