      my first car ever was an accord. it was a gift from my brother and 2 doors didn't work. one would never open and the other had to be held shut with a bungee cord and would pop open if i turned right too hard. loved that car though, she had a lot of character. always kept me on my toes

    The Honda Accord will always hold a special place in my heart. At 17 I got my first car which was a 07’ Accord SE with 131k miles on the clock. Whether it was going on spontaneous trips with friends, going to work, school, or a joyride to clear my mind, it got me through a lot mentally and physically. However the story continues, cause 26,000 miles later (currently at 157,153) it’s still chugging along.

      Buy a 1991 CRX si 5 speed (like $1500-$2000) then swap the top end and cam with the one that has the extra 5hp and put full header exhaust, cold intake, and take out EVERY not necessary part. And then take it to a country road.
      - you're welcome
      I had this as a weekend rider and I had probably 115hp max but it was so lightweight it was the funniest car I ever owned and I've own a 5.0 mustang. So that's saying alot.

Have a CAI, resonator delete, and borla axleback.. sounds amazing. 2016/17 was the last buttoned up 9th gen design and they added android auto/apple car play. Seems to be a quite a rare car too!

    The Accord is like that middle aged uncle you see a couple times a year on holidays that’s kinda lost his way, is a father, and drives a family sedan. Has a regular full time desk job and lives in a condo. But he’s got cool tattoos and stories about his younger years, and revealed that he took out his now wife on their first date in his old Integra Type R. Now him and your dad are reminiscing about the first time they got pulled over for speeding in that car, and street racing after watching the fast and the furious at the theater in 2001. He somehow randomly has a picture of him and Mr. T, too.

      The Accord pops VTEC at around 3,000 RPM while the Civic pops at around 5,500 RPM, so I'd say the civic or Integra is more of the VTEC king because they make more of a: "BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH" sound when they hit VTEC.

    Man, I always enjoy these videos with James, so hilarious! Especially when he does the V-Tech sound. I'm a 06 Civic owner and I'm looking forward to finally step up to a 10th Gen Accord with the 2.0 engine. I've been watching a lot of videos in regards to pros and cons, but everywhere I go, all I find is pros are good enough to outmatch the cons, and James just confirmed it all here. I guess it's decided! Thanks DonutMedia, thanks James, keep up the great job!

    I own 3 Subaru's and a 91 Accord. Guess which one has never let me down. I just add a little gas and oil every once in a while and it keeps on going.
    My buddy had a 92 coupe back in high school when they were new. It was the car that opened my eyes to the import world. Before that I thought only old muscle cars could be fast. Even with only 130 hp that thing would get up and go. Fast forward a couple of decades I was looking for a daily while I finished a motor build on my WRX. So I decided to pick my 91 up for $1500. It's been the most reliable car I have ever owned. I put 80 miles a day on it for over a year and it didn't even cough once. Only problem I have with it is the cops around here love to profile me in it. I get pulled over all the time. As soon as they see it's a 40 year old dude with no record they let me go every time. It's not completely riced out but it's also not stock so I get where they are coming from...
    Oh yeah and my dad had an 84 Accord when I was a little kid that the only thing I remember about it is he hit my sister with in the driveway because there was no clutch safety switch and it jumped when he started the car.

    I drive a 2004 Honda Accord with a k24 right now, but I used to have the 1994 Honda Accord EX with the 2.2 liter vtec BEASTIE BOI. It was my first car in 2014. I found the car in field, not running. I fixed the shot gas lines, brake lines, headlamps, power windows, moon roof, radio, speakers and paired it up with 4 brand new tires. That car was my gateway into the car scene. Even though it had over 220,000 miles, it still ran great. It was the perfect back and forth car for my high school years and even got me through some of college. However during the summer of 2018 this car would meet it's demise. I had just picked up a friend to go bowling. As we were heading north we have to pass this intersection. It was a 3 lane intersection with a single stop sign for the road that intersects with the other. Kind of like this: |-
    I was going down the side of the road that is closest to the adjacent street with the stop sign. I was very close to the intersection when this lady decided to turn left. I am not sure of all of the details myself, but I believe what happened was she did not double stop and didn't see me. So she pulls out and smashes into my car. The whole right side of my car is gone. Front passenger side wheel is smashed and bent, glass is shattered, both doors are jammed shut, and the radiator was smashed. Me and my friend were fine and the lady admitted that she messed up. At the time I was hysterical to be alive, but when I got home that night I could not hold my emotions and broke down. I put so much love and care into that car and to see it go like that killed me. Now I have a 10 year younger version of the same car. Although nothing will ever replace that Honda this one is a close second.

    You forgot to mention that they run forever. My 87 tapped out at 400k

      They run a long ass time. My dad's is at almost 350k. Had to replace transmission though. Someone stole it and we found it within 10 miles of our house. Whoever stole it drove stick so badly they made it less than 10 miles

      That's what is so great about the Honda Accord, Honda Civic, Toyota Corolla, and Toyota Camry: nothing can kill them; aside from an auto accident or a natural disaster.

    My mom (and me since I don't have my own car yet) drives a 2015 Honda Accord, thing has worked perfectly for us. Never has any issues, drives super smoothly, it's great. Neat to see the history behind it.
