1997 Honda Accord Consumer Reviews

This is one of the best, most reliable cars I've ever had the pleasure of driving. I got mine passed down from my grandpa, who got it from my great grandparents, for my first car. I've had it about 3 years now, and it's never broken down on me to date. I've ramped this thing off a drop on a gravel road going about 50, and the only thing that happened to it was the A-frame bent. Mine gets up and goes when I get on the highway, and it brakes like a dream. It gets good enough gas mileage to make it 21+ miles round trip every day for school and I only have to fill up with $40 once a week, even with the high gas prices. This car has never failed to get me where I need to go and I wouldn't trade it for the world. Mine has an entirely original interior, the seats are comfortable for long drives, and the passenger can recline to almost laying down. The backseats are a little small, but the spacious front makes up for it. It's still got the original sound system in it, and it can get plenty loud for when highway cruising with windows down. The visibility is a 9/10, you can see almost 360 from the drivers seat. I love my Honda

They don't build them like this anymore. It was made in the US at Maryville Ohio and exported to Japan.

You can’t get better than a 1994 Accord. I don’t even know how many miles I have on it. Odometer stopped working three years back at approx 200k. Just came back from a 23ooo miles round trip. The thing doesn’t even burn oil. My speedometer doesn’t work either. Was running it between 3250-4000 rpm continuously for hours and hours in southern heat. You be the judge.😉

This was a great car before it was stolen in front of my complex, if you do find it I hope it’s good to you too and there wasn’t any major engine or transmission issues I babied the car before the stole it

Me and other people who drive this car usually have busted windows repaired with duct tape and usually have lots of our belongings in the back.

I purchased this 1997 Honda Accord LX used in 2000. It was my very first car right out of high school. This 25 yr old car is the best vehicle ever! Barley had any problems with it normal wear and tear for as long as I’ve had it. Has out lived my 2006 Volvo XC90! That poor SUV had quadruple problems compared to the Accord. She has definitely served her purpose and still does. Plan to drive this car till she dies. Speedometer stopped just after it hit three hundred thousand miles. So need to get it fixed but she’s still going strong!

I bought this car used with 160,000 miles an drove 15,000 miles for deliveries within 3 months. Only needed to change the oil. It's still rocking the original suspension so I'll be replacing those, but even worn out this car feels solid. Love the feel of that transmission shifting smooth like butter
