Used Honda Accord for Sale near Russell, ON
4.4 Overall rating
(25 reviews)I've had my car for 7 years, I have never had a major problem with it! It's already 10 years old, but I still love it! This car has been all over the place, so reliable!
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.
My 1998 4-cylinder Honda Accord LX 4-door was the first car I ever bought new. After owning a used 88 Honda Prelude and a 90 Acura Integra, I was already familiar with Honda quality and reliability. In the 98 Accord, Honda’s quality and reliability were ever present. However, the Accord was significantly larger than the Prelude and Integra I previously owned and I was afraid that the increased size and weight would make the Accord more of a family hauler and less of a fun driver. I was pleasantly proven wrong. Unlike many Toyotas I have driven which are very well built and thoughtfully designed but not remotely driver focused, Honda always seems to inject their products – be they sport coupe or sedans – with the drive enjoyment. Honda’s, like most other Japanese auto manufactures, has really nailed down quality. From engineering excellence to low-cost operation, the Japanese have lead the way for decades. Striving for such excellence has brought us a slew of “characterless” appliances that have us expecting trouble-free operation with little or no effort on our part. If all you desire or expect from you car is reliability and years of trouble-free operation, I see a Camry in your future. If you want reliability and feel like you’re participating in the driving experience, Accord is your choice. True, there are some Camry models that have a decidedly more sporty edge but every Accord, from the base DX to the highline EX-V6 have driving enjoyment designed into them from the start and you don’t have to pay extra for the privilege. My 98 Accord LX was very basic. It was a 5-speed with no options. This doesn’t mean it was a stripper. In LX trim, the 98 Accord included a manual multi-adjustable driver’s seat, power windows and door locks, cruise control and air conditioning and a 4-speaker stereo with cassette (no CD). One of the things I wish the LX model had was better brakes. The disc/drum set-up worked fine but lacked ABS as standard equipment. You need to move up to the EX trim package to get 4-wheel discs with ABS as standard and, the gift of hindsight would now have me consider the EX over the LX for this very reason (not to mention extra toys like a sunroof and CD –player). The quiet and refined 4-cylinder puts out a very usable 150 horsepower and the 5-speed manual is crisp and fluid. Together they provided the best balance between power and economy (mid-30 mpg on the highway). The lighter inline-4 was well balanced in this chassis and I never felt overworked or at a loss for power and it was the first Low Emission Vehicle (LEV) sold in the State of California. What I truly enjoyed about my Accord was how the engine, transmission and steering all worked together to create a very capable sports car with the convenience of a large back seat and two extra doors. My Accord and I spent many a weekend exploring the myriad of twisty canyon roads Southern California has to offer. Each trip was a joy. How many cars can offer you driving excitement and utter reliability in the same package? In my opinion this generation Accord is a best buy if you want Japanese reliability and driving enjoyment yet, even with all the kudos that this car hard rightfully earned it too suffers a bit from the generic-car syndrome that afflicts Japanese products. Perhaps this is the double-edge sword that consumers need to embrace if they want reliability. Fortunately, Honda throws a little spice into this recipe to keep us awake behind the wheel. As for me, I’m willing to give up a bit of reliability for more personality. I now drive a VW Passat. Never the less, I still have very fond memories of my Accord. Thanks Honda.
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.
The car is not powerful, but not bad... It's really spacious, it rides smooth. The car doesn't ask too often for a visit at a mechanic's, and when it does, it never is expensive. The color is ugly but i like my car anyways.
