Often referred to as the greatest car ever, the Honda Accord four-door Sedan is among the best-selling cars in the United States. Numerous road tests, past and present, rate the Accord as one of the world's most reliable vehicles and has been on the Car and Driver 10 Best list over 26 times.
This fourth generation Accord EX has a powerful 2.2-liter 16-valve electronic fuel-injected engine and 4-speed automatic transmission. The car is extremely versatile, economical and reliable with a 26 MPG fuel economy rating.
With the attrition rate of these cars often accelerated by juvenile, second hand owners and highway commuters, it'd be a nice surprise to find an un-molested, low-mile example of the species that, despite being 22-years-old, still sparkles, shines and runs like a late model.
The most likely place to unearth such a rare gem would be Southern California, with its mild climate and large number affluent, automobile owners. Such an amazing find is the miraculously well preserved example presented for auction here!
Having been loved and cherished by a WW II Vet and his Southern CA family since new, this Honda has led a charmed life. Let’s take a closer look now.
Exterior:
This wonderful Accord EX is as nice and as original as it gets. Still wearing nearly 100% of its factory applied paint, it never suffered from neglect or corrosion and is as virginally preserved as one could hope for.
Always garaged and pampered, you won’t find many cars of this age in such outstanding condition.
Some years ago, the front of the car was professionally re-finished to repair cosmetic damage from a minor mishap.
Otherwise, the car is still wearing its factory original paint and there is no rust or collision damage. If you look closely at the pictures, you’ll see there are a few small chips, dings and scratches and the finish isn’t perfect but overall, has held up well given its 22 years old.
Surveying the car's straight and smooth coachwork today, we marvel at how well the finish was preserved over the years.
Newer radial tires are mounted to the original alloy wheels which still have amazing detail.
Speaking of detail, let us stress how straight the body is - reflecting true pride of ownership: if you wouldn't know differently, you'd think to be looking at a 2-year old, not a 22-year old car. This one is that clean! Let’s have a look inside. Interior:
Open the doors and you will find the original interior is in incredible condition!
The velour bucket seats look and feel like they’ve never been sat-in.
The carpets, door panels and headliner are immaculate.
The Accord has A/C, tilt wheel, cruise control, power windows, mirrors door locks and sliding moon roof.
The pristine dashboard and steering wheel are crack free,
The instruments function perfectly and the 139,782 miles are original!
All the switches, and the original AM/FM/Cassette unit work and the air-conditioning still blows ice cold.
As you can see in the photos, no panel cuts or modifications were ever made - leaving this interior 100% original and pristine.
Everything in this non-smoker interior looks, smells and operates as if the car was delivered 2 years ago, not 22 years.
This one is that clean!
Let’s have a look inside the trunk.
The carpet lined trunk is very spacious and the rear seat folds down to provide even more room.
Under the panel, the original spare and jack tools are located.
A picture tells a thousand words; this all original trunk is clean! Let’s have a peak under the hood.
Engine & Mechanical:
The immaculate engine compartment is 100% original.
Featuring the legendary 2.2-liter 16-valve electronic fuel-injected engine, it is known for its reliability and longevity. It starts quickly, idles very smoothly with no smoke or unusual noises. The engine is mated to a four-speed automatic which brings this Accord EX to perfection.
Beyond religious oil and fluid changes, services were performed at the recommended intervals.
Evidence of recent maintenance can be seen in these detailed photos of replaced ancillary components including a new radiator, alternator, battery, belts and hoses.
As a result, this low-mile Accord is mechanically as strong as it is cosmetically.
Yes, any Honda can be very tough, reliable and will last forever with a bit of preventative maintenance!
Drivability: The powerful 2.2-liter 16-valve electronic fuel-injected engine and 4-speed automatic transmission, provide a pleasant blend of comfort and agility. In any climate, the engine starts every time, idles, revs and pulls effortlessly without unusual noises or hesitation and accelerates strong and smooth leaving no smoke in your rear-view mirror or drips in your driveway.
Warmed up, the coolant temperature remains absolutely stable, with no hint of overheating even after extended runs in rush hour traffic. The “Check Engine” light flashes on occasion but all components presently check out, the emissions are in order as a smog check and certificate at a Star Station was just issued verifying all systems function properly. Fuel economy rates 19 mpg city, 26 mpg highway. Steering is precise and the new disk brakes anchor the car securely, in a straight line, and without any hint of fading. Aided with newer radial tires, handling is superb with no rattles, shakes, shimmies or pulls. All in all, this Accord EX is a joy to drive. Despite its age, the car is perfectly reliable and ready to be driven anywhere, even across the Country, if that's where you live.
Finally, with an original MSRP of over $16,000, the 1991 Honda Accord EX has reached the bottom-end of the depreciation curve; a perfect time to buy. Here is the current NADA value for 1991 Honda Accord EX http://www.nadaguides.com/Classic-Cars/1991/Honda/Accord/4-Door-Sedan-EX/Values
Well, here’s one that not only survived the ravages of time but is up to any task imaginable. To state it succinctly: This Accord delivers on its promise! There's but one stumbling block on the way to Honda Heaven: Immaculate, garaged, meticulously maintained, low mile examples have become increasingly hard to find.
All the more reason to watch this one closely...
Presently, we have a clear, California Title. CA tax, license and registration fees have been pre-paid through SEPTEMBER, 2014. Local sales tax and a $15 DMV transfer fee applies to residents in CA and a CA Smog Certificate will be provided.

Alonso wants an NSX, but did Honda block him from Le Mans?
Tue, Jan 20 2015One of the biggest changes in store for the 2015 Formula One World Championship will see Fernando Alonso moving back to McLaren. That means he'll be driving under Honda power for the first time, after spending the bulk of his career driving for Renault and Ferrari. And being Honda's new poster child, as the two-time World Champion is fast discovering, has its advantages and its drawbacks. According to the latest reports, Alonso had been negotiating a clause in his contract with McLaren that could have seen him driving a Porsche 919 Hybrid at Le Mans this year, but Honda reportedly stepped in at the last minute and scuttled the plan. The drive would have been Alonso's first in the famous 24-hour race, after having had the honor of waving the flag at La Sarthe last summer. In one of the wilder rumors that emerged during the prolonged silence over his move for this season, the Spaniard was also linked to a potential return for Ferrari to Le Mans. That prospect came to naught, and now the Porsche deal has been wheeled into the garage, as well. The upcoming F1 season is expected to be one of transition, adjustment and development for McLaren and Honda, but the Japanese automaker's involvement in his hiring may not be all bad news for Alonso. Following the reveal of the new Acura NSX, Alonso tweeted "You still don't know, but one day we will be together..." followed by a series of heart-eyed smiley-face emoticons and accompanies by images of Honda's new supercar. The implication is that the two-time World Champion is expecting to get his talented hands on an NSX of his own, and we can certainly see how Honda would appreciate the imagery of Fernando driving around in its flagship. Even if it doesn't, though, we're sure McLaren would be glad to hook him up with a company car of its own – though Lewis Hamilton encountered some trouble securing (a very specific) one for himself. Even discounting the front-running F1 machinery he's been tasked with piloting on track to an impressive 32 career wins, Alonso has had some lustworthy company cars at his disposal over the years. At Renault, he had a Megane RS to drive, and during his last stint at McLaren, he had an SLR 722. But since signing with Ferrari, he's been given the keys to FCA models as varied as a Ferrari FF, a special 599 GTO, a Maserati GranCabrio, a Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT and an Abarth 695... and those are just the ones we know about.
Recharge Wrap-up: First VW e-Golf in US up for auction, meet Project Ain't Fuelin'
Tue, Oct 14 2014Volkswagen is auctioning the first e-Golf in the US to raise money for Global Green USA. The auction is live now, and bidding goes until 3:30 pm Eastern on October 29. Global Green USA will use the proceeds to help find solutions to climate change, and the winner will get to enjoy emissions-free driving before the car e-Golf goes on sale in November. If you don't live in or near California, Connecticut, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont or Washington DC, you might want to sit this one out, as the car will only be available to pick up at dealers in those initial launch states. Go bid now, or learn more in the press release below. Berlin, Germany will use Solaris electric buses for a complete bus line in 2015. The downtown line will run 3.8 miles between Zoologischer Garten Station and Sudkreuz. The transport operator Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe (BVG) will use four of the Solaris e-buses for the test, each about 39 feet long. The buses use a 200-kilowatt inductive charging system at the ends of the line to recharge in just a few minutes. The government-funded test runs through 2016, but BVG pans to use the electric buses beyond that timeline. Read more at Green Car Congress. The American Petroleum Institute (API) is worried that the Obama administration will use ethanol requirements to influence a Senate race in Iowa. In the midst of a close race against Republican Joni Ernst, Representative Bruce Braley, the Democratic candidate, is urging Obama to reject a cut in the Renewable Fuel Standard. The November election approaches, meanwhile the EPA continues to delay issuing an ethanol requirement for the year, with or without its proposed 16-percent reduction. Rejecting the cut could help get farmers and ethanol producers on the side of Braley. "We are very concerned that the signals we are seeing from the administration is that the political calculations are outweighing sound fuels policy," says API's Bob Greco. Read more at Businessweek. Project Ain't Fuelin' aims to fix up old cars to return them to original fuel economy, and then surpass it. Episode 3 of Valvoline's Under The Hood video series features Daniel Gray of MPGomatic, who is doing just that to a 1999 Honda Civic HX Coupe. He aims to get 50 mpg out of the old Civic by tuning it up, tinkering with the aerodynamics, switching to more efficient tires and other modifications.
McLaren-Honda drops the bling for stealth F1 livery
Wed, May 6 2015Watch a Formula One grand prix and you can instantly tell which are the McLarens, visible as they are from a mile away with their reflective chrome livery. But that's all about to change as the British team has dropped the chrome in favor of the more subdued livery you see here. Unveiled in time for this weekend's Spanish Grand Prix, the new McLaren livery replaces the bling with a gray so dark that it borders on black. The red accents remain, albeit in a revised pattern. The new livery promises to be less reflective at sunset and flood-lit night races especially, while providing more of a visual break from the Mercedes era now that the team is powered once again by Honda. McLaren first adopted the silver and black livery in 1997 after Marlboro (with its white and red livery) left for Ferrari and the West tobacco brand was brought in instead. The team parted company with West after the ban on tobacco advertising in sports was instituted in Europe in 2005, inserted some red into the livery and replaced the flat silver with chrome. This weekend's race will mark the first time in a decade, then, that McLaren will be racing without the chrome.
