1999 Honda Accord Reviews, Pricing & Specs
Write a review
There are still many 1999 Accords available, and with a price tag between $9,000 and $10,500, it's still a good deal. Engine options include a 2.3-liter, 135-hp 4-cylinder with clean emissions and excellent gas mileage, or you may go for the more powerful 3.0-liter V6, with 200 hp. It's not a fancy set of wheels, and not your style if you dream of sports cars. It is however comfortable, dependable, and a great vehicle for every day—and the brakes work when you need them.

I've only had this car for a few months, and so far it's been a decent find for $3,000. Basically rust issues, as this car has been in the rust belt it's entire existence. Other than that, I've been quite pleased with it.Apr 07, 2014

Apperance: Tan fur seats
Cost of Ownership:
Gas Milage = Good
Maintenance = Good

The car is really good to drive, I mostly like the Cruise Control when on the highway or thruway. Durring the summer, instead of having the AC on, I can open the Sun Roof.Feb 02, 2013

It needs a paint job on the hood & top of the car.

I guess automotive engineers and designers sometimes feel the need to add where nothing was lacking, or at least to add what was not lacking. A few unusual features, some bizarre, some frustrating, of this car: 1) Locking the driver's door from inside, locks all doors. I understand this feature, but it gets in the way far more often than it benefits me. 2) Unlocking passenger door with the key unlocks all doors. This one works for me. 3) Engaging the child-safety lock, on power windows, locks out driver's window controls! This is nothing short of a stupid mistake. E.g., if the 4 year old in the back starts to open her window, the driver can lock out her control, but cannot close the window. I.e. as long as 4yo's finger is on her button, or child-safety is engaged, driver cannot close the window. 4) Driver's seat-bottom has 2 segments, which are each tilted/raised/lowered via knobs. I've not found that I can really get tailored comfort out of this, but one can change, or move pressure points, which can be nice on long trips. 5) There's a red LED forever blinking on the dash, to let me know that didn't follow some security procedure before disconnecting the battery. This is to prevent me from stealing my radio. Here's the thing, the "alarm" (the LED) is in my car. If someone does steal my radio, I'll know it by the missing radio. As for the stolen radio: it still works. As long as the thief doesn't hook up the light, he'll be fine. Of course, he won't know it if someone steals his (my) radio. :)
Back seats fold down, but pass-through from trunk is narrow and short enough to make me long for my old hatchbacks.Nov 15, 2011

Great car! Really couldn't ask for a more reliable car.
I would like more performance which did pick up in later years of the AccordJul 14, 2011

Great fun to drive - surprisingly quiet and you have to rev hard to hear the engine. So it's smooth, sophisticated and very much the executive's choice. Or you can always have aspirations!
Very reliable, smart and some may recall it has racing pedigree in the Britcar and BTCC series.Jan 13, 2011

Per car anything special, but this car is fast, well-being and equilibrium during the walk as it is characterized by strength and endurance run level as well as crisp, modern techniques constantly, which we can see without regard to the rest of the race carsSep 22, 2010

Original Post: I have 153K miles on this car and never had a problem. I drive in the Rocky Mountains with it all the time and it has never given me a problem and I often blast by other compact cars with ease. My average mpg is around 24 in town and 30 highway. I love this car.
New post: I upgraded (kind of) to a new car but looking back on it now I miss the v6 engine. I miss pushing on the peddle and actually going somewhere fast! It's no Challenger with a Hemi by any means but it had torque! It had a lot of room in both the front and the back seat so road trips weren't too big of an issue if you had four or less people. Never broke down, and no issues if you kept up on the maintenance. Sep 15, 2010

This is my 1999 Honda Accord. Got it in 2007 at 182,000 original miles and it has
only given me minor problems. It is a 5 speed 4 cyl VTEC motor that is a fuel
sipper...but gives you a nice power increase when you need it. I have since done
minor inexpensive modifications to improve driveablilty, fuel economy and power. I
get 25-28 total MPG regularly and the 16 gallon fuel tank lasts me at least two
weeks. I do what I can to take care of the exterior (previous owner neglected the
paint) but overall it is a great all-around car.Sep 08, 2010

Needs more horse power, maybe a V6 Accord runs faster. The general performance of the car is fine, braking is solid like a toad in pavement. The appereance is great, sporty specially if you put 17" wheels and a good pair of tires 225/45/17 is what I am using. Runs great on gas in highway in the city uses a lot of gasoline.Nov 11, 2009

Great gas mileage... as in 30 highway, still, even after 133000 miles. It corners wonderfully, and has the space for everything I need to take anywhere to fit. Great car, crazy fun to drive, anywhere, and ...at any speed. One more word.Aug 12, 2009

Your typical, good quality accord from honda. Nice
features, like sunroof, power everything, remotes,
alloys, and an interesting 5-speed manual
transmission. A good reliable car, with comfortable
seating for 4 (5) people. It has a nice feel, but its
nothing to brag about.May 31, 2009

Quality - no problems with the car. bought it at 50000 miles, it has 100000 miles now with no issues.
The stock hubcaps and steel wheels were cheap and generic looking. So aftermarket wheels make it much more unique. The car is fairly economical and can hold the whole family. I am pretty happy with it and would definitely recommend to friends. Dec 24, 2008

It's a well built and it lasts forever, doesn't compromises the ride quality even after many years down the road assuming you take care of it. It will reward you with its loyalty and more than pleasant times spent behind the wheel =)Dec 16, 2008

Well this is a great car i have only had a few problems since i've had it but they were all fixed really quickly. for example the trunk latch was broken and had to be replaced. Also i have had to replace the timing belt and get the air conditioner fixed, but overall it is a really good car. It does seem to slide around on the ice a bit and can have a hard time getting out of the snow. Finally it has excellent gas mileage. Dec 02, 2008

This is my wife's car. We have always loved it. It is a 4 cylinder, but it has enough giddy up to get you where you need to be. We have kept up with the usual routine maintenance, and are very pleased. It has been a relatively inexpensive car to own. The gas mileage is very reasonable and is very dependable.Oct 06, 2008

31+ mpg. The manual states a 7500 mile service interval but I change oil every 5000. Simple to replace headlights and taillights, not so simple to replace turn signal lights. Smooth and forgiving 5-speed manual transmission. Good build quality -- no rattles; a small squeak in the driver's seat; easy to dent and tear body panels and bumpers; solid "thump" when you close the doors. Exterior styling is a bit bland but not dated. Wish a more luxurious interior was available when I bought the car, but the ergonomics are good. Easy to drive, easy to park. Aug 26, 2008

Honda makes the best cars.
The Honda Accord is Honda's flagship model and it shows. The build quality is beyond comparison and the attention to detail in the interior is amazing. I got the four cylinder model for the gas savings, and I could easily get 35 miles/gallon on the highway.Jul 27, 2008

Accords will last forever if you treat them well. There are a few minor interior issues with elctric locks and windows. And noise is a factor. Apr 08, 2008

This is my first car. Got it when I was 16. I love this car it has all the pwr I really need and thats coming from a spirited driver. I topped out at 131mph before and kept side by side to a 99 v6 mustang 5 spd man. It stays pretty composed in corners not a lot lean. I put 18 ICW racing rims on it. It looks fantastic gives it a whole different look... Apr 04, 2008

Comfortable seats, beautiful interior, gorgeous on the outside.
Everything just feels great. Driving this car is so intuitive.
You never feel like you have to "force" the car to do anything.
One of the best cars you'll ever drive.

How do I get rid of transmission clunk?
My 99 Accord has a clunk when it shifts while driving at lower speeds. I had the fluid changed and was told the shop couldn't change the trans. filter. Honda service center said that there isn't a filter! will probably have to replace trans! Really?

car running with no key for no reason?
Recently, I walked out to my car to find that the parking lights were on and the engine was running. It was doing so without a key in it, and the parking light switch was not turned to on, either. The car was locked and I had to use my key rather than the keyless entry to open the door because they keyless wouldn't work. I didn't know what to do, so I put my key in the ignition and found that the keyhole was turned to off, so I turned the key to on and put the vehicle out of park into drive. As soon as I moved the shifter, the vehicle turned itself off. I'm very puzzled by this, and a mechanic I spoke with at the Honda dealership told me he had no clue why it would've done that. I'd really appreciate it if someone could give me an answer as to why they think this could've happened!

Changing the power steering fluid
I have a 1999 Honda Accord with 188,000 miles on it. The power steering fluid has never been changed. There is nothing about doing this in the Owner's Manual. Should I flush and change this fluid?
