  1997 Honda Accord 4dr LX - 1997 Honda Accord
  By Robert Bloomquist - April 17 - 2:00 am

  Car is extremely reliable. I am 62" and I thought it was more suited for someone that was 59"-60". truck is roomy for this size car and it handles well in the snow. Very good car, we also own a Camry 1998 and I would pick the Honda over the Camry. I believe the Hondas construction is more sound than the Camry, the trim on the Camry seems less refined and much more chinsy.

  198,000 and still going strong - 1997 Honda Accord
  By wreckbum - March 29 - 2:00 am

  I purchased this vehicle with 150 miles. I fell in love with it and still am. It has 198,000 miles and I know it can still go another 100,000. The power windows in the front were always slow, but no problems. I drive on the highway alot and the car performs great many long trips doing 85 to 100 mph continously. The CV joint boots did not go until 90,000, where in most foreing cars I have owned break in 35,000. No mechanical problems have occured. Had 2 major accidents and the car still performs great. I will never buy another make but Honda.

  honda utility, back and forth to work - 1997 Honda Accord
  By HondaValueSedan - March 6 - 10:26 pm

  I bought this vehicle for reliable transportation to and from work. The car has been very dependable. However, the car is low and light...as a result, I do not feel that safe. Now that I have children, I plan to upgrade and buy something more safe. However, my Honda has been great and I am looking for to a high residual value.

  Best Deal and VERY Reliable - 1997 Honda Accord
  By rma - January 17 - 10:00 am

  This car is my moms but Ive prob. driven it more than she has. I have to say that this car is VERY reliable! We havent had to take it in ever since we got it...except this week the brakes started rattling but thats about it. Eventhough we spent a couple hours negotiating the price we ended up getting it at $500 over factory invoice! That was in May of 96...Hondas are the only cars we own at the moment

  By jonie - January 16 - 2:00 am

  This is a great car. I have had it for about a year now and there hasnt been any major problems. These cars last for a long time so I guess honda lives up to its name.

  I HAVE REALLY ENJOYED THE 1997 HONDA ACCORD. I HAVE HAD FEW MECHANICAL PROBLEMS. I WILL NOTE THAT I HAVE HAD 2 SENSORS GO OUT, FORTUNATELY THEY WERE COVERED UNDER THE HONDA EMISSIONS WARRANTY.

  Sacrificing performance for reliability - 1997 Honda Accord
  By REL - December 5 - 10:00 am

  As most Honda owners will agree, the Accord is about as close to "bulletproof" as it gets. Mine currently has a bit over 60,000 miles and all I have had to do is change out the original set of tires. What the car lacks in performance and styling, it clearly makes up in reliability and comfort.

  1997 Honda Accord EX sedan - 1997 Honda Accord
  By Byron - December 5 - 10:00 am

  Car has been very dependable. No major problems. We have had 5 Hondas now and would certainly consider another. Cars look stylish for years and now that Honda has come out with custom wheels, you can personalize to your own style and personality.

  Dependable, trouble-free transportation - 1997 Honda Accord
  By ivorykeyer - November 30 - 2:00 am

  We bought this car used (17K miles) in a hurry when our disaster of a Taurus Wagon had a catastrophic engine problem. Our primary goal was to get a car that wouldnt require monthly visits to the mechanic and in this the Accord has been a rousing success. Other than power window problems (front windows becoming progressively slower as time goes on) the car has performed absolutely flawlessly. I use it for a long daily commute (100 miles/day) and it is very comfortable with decent gas mileage (23-25 MPG). While not exciting visually or performance-wise, it has lots of room and has been a great and extremely reliable car for our basic transportation needs.
