  • Honda is the Best Car - 1997 Honda Accord

    I have had my Honda now for almost 8 years and it is GREAT! I have not had to sink tons of money into it. I recommend a Honda to everyone.

    I just bought my Honda and I love it, I have wanted an Accord for a while now and everything I was hoping it would be it is. The only complants are the rough shift from 1st to 2nd, slow power windows, and the seams on my leather seats are coming apart, but I suspect it was the previous owners lack of leather conditioning and care.

    I bought a Honda because of its reputation and reliability. the last year and a half Ive owned this vehicle Ive never been dissapointed. I am very pleased with every aspect of my Honda and when I run this one into the ground I fully intend on purchasing another.

    One of the best and most reliable cars I have ever owned. A pleasure to drive and always dependable.

    Overall this has been a reliable yet sporty car. Problems: engine light came on at 60,000 miles, which turned into a faulty chip in the engine (under warranty). Power Windows have stopped working in the past but started again VERY slow. Dashboard light that circles the "D" when in drive has just gone out. No other problems.

  • Great Car - Honda Success - 1997 Honda Accord
    By -

    We bought our 97 Accord 4DR Special Edition as a Certified lease return when it was 3 years old and had 32,000 miles. Though it was used when we bought it, it seemed like a new car. The ride is very stable and quiet. Fuel mileage is excellent. Features include CD player, sunroof, security system, woodgrain accents, alloy wheels and all power accessories. The seats are very comfortable, and it is easy to sit for hours. Our only problem is a creaking noise infrequently from front left suspension. The engine could have more passing power, but we benefit from the great gas mileage. Honda is a winner and we love their cars!

  • my 90 accord was a much better car - 1997 Honda Accord

    air conditioning system never worked correctly; after 5 years the dealership finally admitted it and fixed it; handles well on and off the highway my 90 EX was just a better car to drive I did hate those automatic seat belts and that is the only reason I sold it; my son is still driving the 90 with 160000 miles

    Excellent automobile, reliable, very little maintenance required other than oil changes. My next car will be a Honda!!

  • Finally a used car you can rely on! - 1997 Honda Accord
    By -

    My biggest fears about buying a used vehicle were reliability and sturdiness of interior and exterior design. I have to say that my car still looks and drives great. It stands up to harsh road conditions and is not expensive to maintain. I still get between 310 miles and 350 miles to the tank. I would definitely either keep this car for a long time or trade up for a newer Honda Accord model.

  • Great Car!!! - 1997 Honda Accord
    By -

    We wanted a newer Accord but found this 97 with all the bells and whistles, low miles, and a great price. I love the car. Its quick an smooth, and still looks nice. Cant go wrong with a Honda.
