Pros

Maneuverable, automatic was great for bay area traffic,  and mileage.

Cons

Key would get stuck in ignition, car would take longer than usual to shift into reverse, and driver window would get stuck.  All expected on an older car.

25

Practical — Handled well for the year. Got pretty good gas mileage (between 24-27 mpg usually). Car did show it's wear and tear, but it was a commuter car.

Long lasting great on gas, usually extreemly reliable

Cons

Rust, it was badly sealed around the wheel wells

Long Lasting Tank — Was in the family for about 16 years, brand new when bought for my mother. It was an EX-R trimline which is not shown on this program. Top of the line except no spoiler (ugly anyways) and no cd player. It drove fantastic untill its final days where it broke down litterally on a lift the brake lines were shot as well at the springs, shocks, and gas line had a leak. Also transmision was on its last legs. Also body after 16 montreal winters rusted quite a bit. However someone took posession of the car fixed it and last it is on the road.

Solid Car With Little Repair — Drives forever. Only problem has been in that when it gets hot, really hot, outside, sometimes has trouble starting. It always starts.

Need A Car? Choice Made. — Performance? None Build Quality? Meh Appearance? No Cost of ownership? got 20 bucks? Fuel Economy? 24 (meh) Fun Factor? Through the roof. Nothing like beating one of these down a crooked road. Overall, this is another prime example of what Honda is missing in their lineup today. Simplicity. There are no fancy bells and whistles. It's a car, that runs, no matter what. The body and frame were known for rusting but its hideous anyway. Better looking than anything Honda makes currently but still hideous. Bottom line? It is a great example of basic transportation.
