1996 Honda Accord LX review from North America
"This is an AWESOME car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A/C Compressor Clutch went out at 223,000 miles.
General comments?
I own a 1996 Honda Accord 4-door LX. The only thing that has gone wrong with this car is that the A/C Compressor Clutch went out at 223,00 miles. This has been a very reliable car and besides regular maintenance, I have only had to put about $150.00 in the car for the A/C Compressor.
This car also gets unbelievably great gas mileage, which get 35-40 mpg :)
Did I mention it is unbelievable fast? It may only have a 2.2 l engine, but I have raced mustangs, cameros, and V-8 trucks and smoked them!
