I Love It. — I mean, this is no jet powered car, but after 30 years, she can still turn on a dime and give change. Nice and tight around the corners, stays right on the road. :-) And the most important thing - she gets out of the way when somebody tries to smack into us. I mean, really. I have out-maneuvered at least three larger vehicles intent on causing us harm. For a 30 year old car, the interior looks new, although I did wear out the front seats. The exterior still looks good after all this time with only minimal maintenance. Still gets over 30 mph - I have saved a fortune in gas. As like - compared to my pick-up.... So she's cheap to run. She's at the age now where she needs more and more repairs. But, hey. She's been on the road a long, long time. This car has always been fun to drive, and I can carry home sacks of feed in the trunk with the back seat folded, too. I've been loving this car since I bought it in 1981!

Honda Accord 2 Door Hatch 1981 — The Honda Accord 2 door hatch 1979 - 1981 really is a classic of the future. I bought one in immaculate condition with only 28,000 on the clock. The handling and comfortable driving were hard to match. The sleek lines and easy maintaince made it a dream car. I would really like to own another one preferably gold and automatic. |

ProsI had one a long time ago. It was the car I had when I met my wife. It still holds a place in my heart. I kept it until 1989. It always ran great. Didnt give any trouble until it had 130,000 miles. (alternator).It never got stuck in snow either. ConsRusted out so bad I didn`t feel safe driving it. 2nd gas tank, fenders,doors,trunk and floorboards. It still drove,ran and handled like a brand new car.

If You Can Still Find One. Buy It. — It just got too rusty. I would have kept it longer if it wasn`t for that. New England winters werent kind to it. It was the best car I ever had. Rusty Jones didn`t keep it from rotting away to nothing Primary Use: Family transportation |

Great For Those In Need Of Anything For An 81 Accord — Lotta new stuff under that old hood of hers, but the back ends pretty rough, dont have the goods to fix it myself, so im trying to part her out, or sell her whole. It still runs fine, but driving it is shunned upon by those who are cops. Primary Use: Commuting to work |
