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...

Watch this LSR Honda Insight crash at 190 mph in the desert
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Like any form of motorsports, attempts at breaking land speed records are inherently dangerous. To wit: During a recent speed competition at El Mirage dry lake beds in southern California, racer Brian Gillespie and his first-gen Honda Insight crashed at nearly 190 miles per hour, and it was all caught on video.
According to the Southern California Timing Association website, which hosts the event, the weather was good and there was no wind on November 10, so it isn't clear what may have caused the crash. Despite the car being destroyed (including the entire front end being sheared off), Gillespie suffered only "minor injuries" and is recovering. The SCTA site does state that Gillespie managed to crack the 200-mile-per-hour mark in a previous run with a top speed of 200.9 mph, so congratulations to him on that! Scroll down to watch the horrifying crash.
Scion FR-S pitted against oldtimers RX-8 and S2000
Tue, 07 May 2013There are very few vehicles available today that compare directly with the Scion FR-S and Subaru BRZ twins. A case could be made for the Mazda MX-5 Miata, and possibly even six-cylinder versions of American coupes like the Ford Mustang. Pretty much everything else is either too expensive or is powered by the wrong set of wheels.
The boys from EverydayDriver on YouTube decided the only fair way to judge the inherent qualities of the Toyobaru twins was to pit them against two standard-bearers of years past: The Honda S2000 and Mazda RX-8. Neither of these cars is an exact matchup, with the Honda boasting a convertible top and the RX-8 offering more practicality via a rear seat and two reverse-opening doors for easier access. What they do offer, however, are similar performance stats and proven reputations for excellent handling.
None of this talk answers the real question, though: Which one wins the comparison test? Scroll down to watch the video, and be prepared for something of a surprise conclusion.
Honda confirms 2014 Odyssey and Acura MDX for New York
Mon, 18 Mar 2013Look beneath the seats of a Honda Odyssey and you'll likely find a handful of that iconic loop cereal loved by toddlers nationwide. And to show that Honda understands its minivan's target market, it is using the breakfast staple to announce its plans to reveal the updated 2014 model at next week's New York Auto Show. While the announcement is creative, it unfortunately lacks much in the way of information, leaving us with little more than a vague teaser alluding to "some innovative new features."
As expected, Honda has also confirmed we will see the production version of the 2014 Acura MDX in New York. We expect the 2014 MDX to look very much like the prototype we saw in January at the Detroit Auto Show with only slight differences. The 3.5-liter i-VTEC V6 will be offered with all-wheel drive or, in a first for MDX, front-wheel drive.
You'll find the official press snippets for both below, and we'll have live images and details on both from the New York show. Until then... Cheerio!
