700,000 and still going 1 engine change - 1991 Honda Accord
By J Emerson McGowan - March 27 - 7:53 ambought new in 91. Have had some issues over the years. Got away from the dealer repair charges... was killing me. Could not walk in there without dropping $600 min. Have found 2 good mechanics who keep it running. Interior getting a bit raggedy but, it keeps running. 3rd clutch but they lasted about 300k each. Some rust out around rear wheel wells and bottom of back door. I got no car note and I am happy. Just cant part with a car that keeps running. Probably bought a cheap bmw for the money I have put in it over the years. But, scumbag mechanics in the past have not helped. Now, thank god I have 2 great guys that fix my shorty and it keeps going. Need to fix the heater core now and the dash

In the Family since 1991 - 1991 Honda Accord
By 91hondaaccord - November 25 - 2:14 amMy grandparents purchased this beast in 1991 fresh off the lot on New Years Eve. After they decided it was time to upgrade, they sold her onto my Aunt, from there my parents bought her for my sister when she turned 16 for $1500 (they only wanted $1000). Once my sister bought her own car the Honda was past on to me. She has 239,000 miles, and was just beautifully repainted (cost was almost as much as she was worth...). She has had a new transmission, A/C, and minor upgrades throughout the six years she has been in the possession of my parents. Great reliability, but gas milage isnt nearly as good as others (Im getting low - mid 20s, but I driver her hard).

Amazing - 1991 Honda Accord
By c11h15no2 - April 23 - 8:58 pmWell.... I bought my 1991 Accord in Feb 2010 with 138000 miles for $1600. I have no idea how many owners its had. I am thinking about buying a new car but I worry that the new car I buy wont be as reliable as my accord. I dont drive much and have only put 13,000 miles on it, but I gotta say the thing runs like a champ. I had both front axles changed, thats it so far. My next repair is an A/C leak. No leaks other then a/c, starts everytime in -20 to +105. Best car ever. The clear coat has flaked away and some rust around wheel wells. Go Honda

Old Reliable - 1991 Honda Accord
By aggro - June 24 - 12:52 pmMy Accord has over 220,000 miles on it, and is still going strong! This car has been handed down and taking several beatings, but shes a sturdy ride. Decent on gas, and the most reliable car ever. Go, Honda!

300.000 miles and counting - 1991 Honda Accord
By Ashley - August 24 - 10:53 amI ordered this car from the factory and have driven the wheels off it for 19 years. It just turned 300,000 miles this week and the engine runs very strong still. My mechanic says the engine will go 500,000. Ive replaced many things over the years, cv joints, ball joints, etc. but still on original trans, engine, struts, etc. This car is a total work horse and has been worth every penny and then some. Ive been looking at newer cars and with all the Honda transmission problems of late, I just keep driving my old faithful standby. Its the car at my house that ALWAYS starts.

91 Accord DX - 1991 Honda Accord
By Dave - July 1 - 2:36 pmThis car survived the summers of Nevada and the winters of Massachusetts. It was a solid no-frills workhorse that got me where I needed to go for over 19 years. For the last few years, it needed a major repair per year, but only this last year did it cost me over $500. The engine has held up very well, and the fuel efficiency has been great.

Get one with low miles! - 1991 Honda Accord
By Dillon - June 1 - 1:03 pmGot this car after I wrecked my 93 Mustang for $1800 with about 165k miles on it. Its a good car, not much more could be asked for with the price I paid. The AC went from freezing me out to not working in a few weeks, the variable speed sensor is going out (a common problem with this model), the trunk is leaking, needs new CV joints, a tune up, and I have had head gasket work done, a new battery and alternator, and a new timing belt. Its a great car still, but its a money pit. Once something goes wrong, everything starts to follow. The gas mileage is the saving grace I get about 40 highway and around 32-34 in town.

Very Nice Car - 1991 Honda Accord
By Dillon - March 19 - 9:54 amI bought this car about a week after the transmission in my 93 Mustang went out and I havent had too many problems out of it. It gets great mileage (about 38-40 highway and 30-32 city), its reliable, cheap and easy to maintain and fix, and you can always find parts if you need them. After several months of driving it and putting miles on it (I bought it with 170,000 and now have 184,000) Ive had to do some work on it. I replaced the entire exhaust system, new head gasket, water pump, fuel filter and pump, and tires of course. I need to get a tune up and some new CV joints, but after that, itll be a great car for school next year!

Good car for the mileage - 1991 Honda Accord
By EstateWagon - April 8 - 11:36 pmThe door interior handle trim tends to break on these cars, speed sensors, paint flaking off of hubcaps (LX, DX models), squeaky front suspension, cassette/radio problems, harsh/noisy shifting automatics. Luckily, rust has not been a problem on my car, as it is a problem spot around the rear wheel wells on the Accords. My car had developed a few rattles and "popping" noises in the dash area and door panels, but again, for a 11 year old car and 169K, not too bad.

Im back Honda - 1991 Honda Accord
By PickHonda - November 7 - 11:59 pm3 yrs ago I sold my Integra and have missed it everyday. I bought a Mazda/Ford 626 and regret it. Since its sat broken for the last yr, I needed something to get me to work and school. I found my Accord for sell for a scamp $900. It had a dented fender and a $100 paint job. Its got over 220k, but that didnt discourage me. It runs like a Honda (like a Swiss watch). Balanced and beautiful. Its not the most powerful, but with the 5spd, it makes it fun. I love the sound of a high revving Honda. I dont like having the same car as everyone else, but there is a reason for that. You dont mess with perfection. Im not saying Hondas are without fault, but compared to everything else, it almost is.
