Overview & Reviews

Honda redesigns its best-seller for 1998. A 3.0-liter V6 engine makes its debut in LX V6 and EX V6 models, marking the first six-cylinder VTEC in the Honda lineup. The standard 2.3-liter four-cylinder is also re-engineered, as is the chassis. The 1998 Honda Accord is also larger, and the interior boasts more room inside.

• Good build-quality, spacious interior, peppy engine, and comfortable seats. We call it intelligent engineering.

• Popularity. Bad guys steal them.

  Good Car - 1998 Honda Accord
  By DJ - May 28 - 10:00 am

  Ive driven Honda since 1979 and have put over 200,000 miles on all 5 Ive owned. This car is by far better refined than ever before. However, I have had some small problems the check engine light related to the new in 98 LEV emissions. I have 91,000 on this one and am going for 300,000. There is no doubt it will make it. It runs the same as the day I bought it.

  First car - 1998 Honda Accord
  By martin james - May 24 - 6:29 pm

  I really enjoyed this car at first, after all it was my first. When we first bought it the dealer said that the transmission was just rebuilt, thinking nothing of it we purchased it. Needless to say I have had the car for a total of about 5 years now, and have rebuilt the tranny twice. First costing 1,500 and second costing 1,300. The car isnt even worth that much. So unfortunately I am trading it in. I have read that it was that specific year that the tranny cant handle the engine, but I have given up on it.

  This is a really good car. Great driving experience when all is said and done and it has almost 200,000 miles on it now with only about 1,500 dollars worth of maintenance done.

  My Honda experience. - 1998 Honda Accord
  By Tonisia - February 25 - 10:00 am

  The car has been great for me. Its good on fuel and it rides nice on the road. In additon, because the car is roomy inside, all 5 passages can fit comfortable and there are cup holders in the back for the passengers.

  I LOVE THIS CAR! - 1998 Honda Accord
  By Amber - December 7 - 2:00 am

  I bought this car with 11 miles on it, and have never ever had to replace anything save the brakes, a few sets of tires and the oil and air filters. MOST EXCELLENT CAR! The inside is amazingly roomy and the exterior is pleasing to the eye. My only complaint is that the paint jobs on Hondas in general since 1994 have gotten rather thin and this is painfully obvious on my 98.

  One leads to another - 1998 Honda Accord
  By Nonoy - December 1 - 10:00 am

  Honda Accord 6 cylinder is very reliable. @94K miles in 4 years, it never had any problem. Never had a wheel alighnment either. Its sturdy and firm. Overall driving was enjoyable. Fast and easy to handle. I had a Civic before which I used for 10 years. Upgraded to an Accord 6th cylinder and it seems it would last forever.

  Good value for money but perfomrance not upto expectations. I had a 90 Maxima before which had more comfortable seats and felt like it accelerated faster. Hondas controls are better placed though and it has better resale value for sure. Honda makes better cars - Nissan makes better engines

  Great car - 1998 Honda Accord
  By smiles498 - November 14 - 2:00 am

  Id always been a fan of the 4th gen. coupes design. I bought my car used last year with 53,000 miles on it, which made me a little skeptical. But the car now has 71,000 miles and runs like a champ. It still looks great too on the inside and outside.

  Better than it looks - 1998 Honda Accord
  By Tom - September 29 - 6:09 am

  Purchased the car with 127,000 miles and now has 142,000 and the only problems were a failed cam sensor ($400) and corroded plug wires ($120). Not bad for its age and mileage. Have heard horror stories about Accord auto transmissions. Mine has been fine but doesnt shift smoothly and sometimes makes a really unnerving clunk. Ive driven similar Accords with manual transmissions and the experience is much more rewarding. Four cylinder models seem to be more reliable than V6s. The six was all-new in 98 and had some kinks to work out, apparently. Both are terminally boring to drive so you might as well save gas and money with the four. A great transportation appliance, but kind of a sedate car
