1987 Honda Accord Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 1987 Honda Accord share a positive experience, highlighting its reliability and good gas mileage. Many appreciate its longevity, with several vehicles surpassing 200,000 miles without major issues. However, some drivers note that it can be slow and lacks excitement in driving. There are also a few concerns regarding specific repairs and design challenges, but overall, it is favored for being a dependable, low-maintenance car, especially for new drivers."
325,000 plus miles, and drive it about 50 miles every day. Never have a problem taking it on road trips either. I love this car. I paid $150 for it almost 3 years ago, and it just keeps getting better!
November 1, 2006My car is great on gas. Not much frills, but usually realiable. Works very well for my family unless it is hot outside.
July 3, 2007Love my 87 Accord LX, except two design challenges. (1) It has a complex web of vacuum hoses that took me two days to replace one by one. (2) I've heard one reliable mechanic and an Internet source both stating that if you begin having carbeurator troubles on this model, there's almost no fixing it (time to move on). Update in 2012: Still driving this oldie at almost 250,000 miles with no major issues other than typical repairs as the miles pile up. The AC died on this vehicle before I bought it, and my Honda mechanic says the compressor on this vehicle was a piece of junk not worth replacing.

April 18, 2007I have seen plenty of reviews on cars that are great and i get a little tirersome of the pages people write so i'll keep it short. I have a 1987 accord one of the plainest cars they made with only a/c and cruise. I have to say though it runs great and only has minor problems but that only started when it hit the 200,000 mile mark. It now has 215,857 and runs fine. So parents looking to get there kids a first car this is a great one or just as a low salary car.
April 9, 2007This was my sisters car. I used it alot eventhough it was her car. I drove it to school and I had it when I was in the Navy until she died on me. Acceleration has ok. Handling was ok. It was a very fun car to drive. I love Hondas
August 29, 2008Looks like crap but gets me for point a to point b
April 1, 2008I really have enjoyed rebuilding my 1987 Honda Accord. I had a little trouble with the intake manifold, but other than that, it's a great car to drive. Great handling and wonderful gas mileage.
March 18, 2007I didnt like the fact that mine was had a carb. I dont like that fact that parts where hard to find. But it was a tough lil honda like most are. So it was a good lil car to go out and abuse.
August 19, 2009Runs well and now that is all fixed up is gonna last a while longer, but it's not that fun to drive because it's automatic and slow, al though i drive it like it isnt
April 6, 2008my car has 180,000 miles and is kinda falling apart but it understandable when the car spent most of its life up in fairbanks alaska. these cars are hard to kill and fairly simple to fix.
