This Year's Model Updates:

Honda redesigns its best-seller for 1998. A 3.0-liter V6 engine makes its debut in LX V6 and EX V6 models, marking the first six-cylinder VTEC in the Honda lineup. The standard 2.3-liter four-cylinder is also re-engineered, as is the chassis. The 1998 Honda Accord is also larger, and the interior boasts more room inside.

Pros:
  • Good build-quality, spacious interior, peppy engine, and comfortable seats. We call it intelligent engineering.
Cons:
  • Popularity. Bad guys steal them.

    Car is basic, yet dependable and pretty much mechanically sound. Have had for 2.5 yrs and just done oil changes.

    I have had more problems with this car than any I have ever had. I have already had to get a new transmission and now the EGR valve is clogged. Its one thing after the other. I should have gone Toyota!

  • Best Car Ever! - 1998 Honda Accord
    By -

    This is my second Honda Accord and I will probably always drive one. It is the most economical, dependable and attractive car Ive ever driven. The body is sleek and it handles very well. This car runs forever and is so economical on gas. Accessories are so varied, creative and cool it makes it easy to dress it up.

  • I am waiting for this damn thing to break down - 1998 Honda Accord
    By -

    Its nearly 20 years old and astoundingly reliable. Its also boring. AND I dont have any more tapes to play in it since that technology died long before the car. But it is strong, not rusting and just fine, thanks. I suspect Id have to drive it off a cliff to get it to break.

  • Good but not great - 1998 Honda Accord
    By -

    Ive had 3 recalls and six additional items go wrong with this car in five years/50,000 miles - since it was new - a record for any car Ive owned in the last 35 years. Service never could get the sunroof to quit rattling (not one of the items I refer to above). Im tired of camping out at the Dealers. The seats are too hard and my butt hurts after a couple of hours of driving - sometimes after 1/2 hour. Insurance it surprisingly pricey for this car. Rock solid engine. Rock solid suspension. Decent handling but its no sportscar - see S2000. Good fuel economy. Why do headlights need to fail after five years?

  • Tight ride - 1998 Honda Accord
    By -

    I bought this v6 coupe last month. I am very happy with it. Rides like a dream. No problems so far and it seems like I just got it out of the dealership. I would totally recommend this vehicle
