    This is my second Accord, and third HMC product. This Accord is my favorite car Ive owned so far. It has 118k miles on it, and no problems. Never had to replace one part or take it to the mechanic for anything outside or normal wear and tear.

  • Hondas at High Mileage - 1997 Honda Accord
    By -

    When you read high rated reviews about 97 Honda Accords, keep in mind that they are written by people who clearly do not have high mileage. I own a 97 Honda Accord LX sedan, and it has fallen apart exponentially after 80,000 miles. I admit that I drive my car hard, and this car will not keep up with others like me. Its seats are not designed well, the suspension falls apart, there is too much body roll, and the transmission isnt smooth during shifts.

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

    I bought my 1997 Honda Accord Ex new. I have had great luck with the car. 71,000 miles later the only thing that I have changed on the car has been the brakes and tires. The orginal brakes went 65,000 miles before I had to change them. The interior is excellent and I love the 1997 exterior design. Great Car!!!!!!! If you have a chance, buy this car.........

    Dependable auto, only problem which is common to Hondas is that the windshield fogs up easily, air conditioning/defogging is not the greatest.

  • The best in reliability - 1997 Honda Accord
    By -

    Excellent overall performance. I almost bought a Plymouth Breeze which was one year older and half the price. No regrets.

  • Want the worst car - get a Honda Accord - 1997 Honda Accord
    By -

    This is my sesond and last Honda. After reading all the reviews here and in Consumer Reports I figured my first experience with a Honda (car had to be sold for junk with less than 100,000 miles) was an anaomoly. Wrong. My second Honda is just as bad. Fuel pump blew, electrical system has more things wrong than right, alternator had to be replaced. If you want to be stranded multiple times then the Honda Accord is the car for you. Im going elsewhere

  • Great value car - 1997 Honda Accord
