1983 Honda Accord hatchback review from North America
"A Great Car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It needed a valve cover gasket, plugs, wires, rotor & cap, air filter, belts, exhaust, etc.
General comments?
This car is great! It's my first Honda, and is easy to work on. Parts are pretty cheap too. Very cheap transportation for only $450! Great on gas at 34 MPG, and will easily do 70+ on the interstate. Has rust holes in the body, and the paint is terrible on the top, but who cares what is looks like on the outside...it's just a commuter car that will run forever! Inside is quite clean and everything including the AC works! Burns no oil yet
