1998 Honda Accord LX Review
ProsPretty much everything. ConsNothing really

Accord — I never thought I would ever buy a Honda. This car is amazing! It was pricier than my Mustang and Eclipse combined, but it is definitely worth it! The only problem I've had with this car is that the Power Steering pump went out. I'm the second owner and it has 136xxx miles on it. The car is beautiful inside and out. Maintenance is very inexpensive, I get around 33 MPG. It is a stick so I have fun driving it. It has a very straight forward style to it, not my favorite body style by Honda, but it does the job. I'm more of a sports car guy, but being a college student, thats not the best option right now. Primary Use: Commuting to work

This Is A Very Great Beginner Car To Teach Beginners How To Drive! — I have owned a 1998 Honda Accord LX for nearly 4 years now (May 2007) with minimal expected repair costs. Including regularly scheduled maintenance I have invested roughly $1,800 in repair costs ($800 of that in a timing belt + water pump change). I purchased the car for $6,200 + tax and title which brought the grand total to $7,000. If you calculate the 46 months I have owned the car it has cost me $191.30 a month to keep this car on the road (under $50/wk). Not the greatest in the world, but still very respectable for the reputable Honda nameplate. I cannot vouch on behalf of the 6 cylinder Accords but I heard that they had tranny problems so my personal recommendation would be to stick with the 4 bangers. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

143,000 Miles And Still Going In My Accord — My Accordian now has 143,000 miles on the odometer (and original clutch) and is consistently reliable. Like its owner, it's starting to look its age. City fuel economy averages about 22-23 miles per gallon, though highway economy can be as high as 26 mpg. My current registration is overdue, but It needs to pass a smog check, and before I can do that I need to make the "check engine" light go out. And before I can do that, I need to get paid. | ||

The Best Of The Best — I can only rave about this car. I have owned it now for 4 years and I have nothing but good things to say about it. The comfort, the power, the looks. All top notch. Rides so smooth. Mine is the V6 and I get about 30 mpg on a trip. Somewhere in the 24 range from city driving. I do not think that is too bad for a V6. I gladly give up a little mpg for the power that this car has. I had a 1995 Accord LX wagon prior to this car and thought it was the bomb. Once I got this car and drove it for a while I knew I was wrong. The 1995 was a nice car, but it does not compare to the room and ride I get from the 1998. If you have not driven a Honda ... your loss. They are some of the very best vehicles on the road today ... bar none. Owner for 4 years, 0 months Miles Driven per Year:10,000 | ||

1998 Honda Accord Lx — Since I got my car in 2010, it's been very reliable. It handles exceptionally well for a sedan, decent acceleration, and very good braking. So far, it hasn't needed any repairs. It has a lot of leg room, both in the front and the back. It has decent gas mileage; much better than bigger vehicles. Overall, it is very fun to drive.

Can't Wait To Put Some Money And Mods Into This Car! — Haven't owned it for long, but since it's a honda I expect it to have good quality! The performance is good, 2.3l vtec pulls hard, brakes good and takes the corners like a train on tracks. So far I've had to replace the strut top because it went dry, and the clear coat needs fixing. The interior is roomy and comfortable, the exterior is nothing special, but with a few mods would look good. Gets really good fuel mileage, hopefully maintenance isn't too costly in the future. The car is really fun to drive, always a blast once vtec kicks in! Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

ProsEconomic home run from fuel to maintenance to replacement parts one of the best cars to own hands down. Great for City or Highway driving. A lot of easy DIY maintenance can be performed. ConsLow power, Will not get you noticed

Responsible, Affordable, And Awesome. — Originally purchased as a family car, I have come to own it as a bachelor and it has proved its worth from helping friends move to a night on the town. I am convinced this car will start in an arctic winter although I have not actually tried. It has never let me down and survived a few medium grade accidents without major cost to my health or wallet. It is easy to maintain and does not ask much of its owner. It will survive some serious neglect (from the previous primary driver) and most maintenance codes are affordable fixes with the exception of the timing belt but that applies to all cars.
