Seen the car, really like the look of it and thought about buying one. Thank you for the comparison between the engine sizes and the tip for an LPG upgrade.
you may sound like borat but you got good car taste i also had the coupe 2.0 and now 3.0. what did you pay for the gas conversioun and what model did yyou use?
Hi friend. Any advice with regards timing belt changes? I've just bought one with no history but only 2 owners and obviously cared for. 145k miles, 23 years old. Should I get the cambelt changed?
@@DavidDavid-kl4ru Pop the valve cover off and inspect the belt with a flashlight you should be able to see it without removing the top timing cover. If the writing on the belt is completely gone or you see any cracks replace it with a new Honda oem belt. Mine had about the same millage when I bought it and the belt is still fine. Tip, loosen the spark plugs and put a socket on the power steering pump bolt and pull towards you to easily turn over this engine and inspect the rest of the belt.
@@asherq8646 funny you say that cause my check engine light came on and the egr code came up. I was going to buy the part for 80 bks but I heard it's not to bad to drive with bad egr Valve
Great video! 😁 👍🏼 funnily enough, I've just brought the exact same one you have in the video! beautiful colour purple, 💜 I drove it home yesterday 445 miles, cruise control on the whole way home! fantastic car fantastic drive! No noises no sound reminded me of my Mercedes CL 👏🏼🚗💯.
You could fit a six speed manual transmission of the seventh gen Accord to any J-Series engine, which includes the sixth gen Accord. But you gotta change out the instrument cluster, the computer and change the wiring harness. But the flanges and mounts on the J-Series engines are mostly identical.
This was my first ever car that my Dad gave me. It gave me a fun time from highschool. Lasted until 250,000 miles for me. Now im upgrading to a BMW 328i:)
Hi, great video. I'm thinking about buying this car but the only thing I'm worried about are the RPMs on highway. I drive on a highway on a daily basis and I'm afraid that the 4 speed automatic gearbox is not enough for EU highways. Any experiences?
@@testdriveinc.6034 I’m doing an oil change, rotate and balancing the tires, changing out the belts, water pump, water pump gasket, crankshaft and camshaft gaskets, valve adjustment, rear main seal and I’ll be doing the fluid flushes also. My dad bought the car brand new in 2001 and gave it to me in 2009 during my senior year.
No... this is simply not true :) You just have to adjust valves more often to prevent faster wear. And be sure to go to your LPG installer for check every oil change
@@testdriveinc.6034 ok. Would you recommend a 2.0 with petrol or a 3.0 with lpg? And what about the weight in the front? Has the 2.0 more sporty feeling? I really like this car and looking for a good one.
@@testdriveinc.6034 And if i don't want to put an experience lpg in the car? Cause v6 has bad fuel economy. Is the 2.0 also a good car. Or did it bring no fun ?
I also have the 2.0L VTEC. Is the difference in power that great? I went with the 4cyl. because mainly VTEC memes and V6 engines are taxed ALOT here in Europe..
hey man. great video and very informative. i liked every single bit of the video and i appreciate your work and effort you put into this video. thanks to you im saving up to buy one of these! how much would you spend at most for such a car? I've found one with only 30000 km on the clock. Keep up the good work neighbour. greetings from germany
Thanks man, nice to hear it! :) I think I know what are you talking about, this was on mobile.de right? :) You can have a really nice discount when you find slightly damaged, low mileage one after a little accident then fix it in your local paint shop. That was my case. This 30K km is pretty expensive, but maybe worth it, I don't know! You can try to negotiate after seeing and inspecting the can. Have in mind that today's cars are pretty much crafted to break, not to last :) I've put 39k km on mine and it's perfect, not a single issue, just brake pads, engine oil, transmission fluid and this kind of stuff :)
@@testdriveinc.6034 yes exactly, this is the one i meant! i didnt know you guys have mobile.de in poland :D. Anyways ive found way cheaper ones for like 2-3 thousand euro. May i ask how much yours cost when you bought it? And i also couldnt find a single one with LPG. i dont know if its worth to switch it to LPG myself because i think it costs like 2.500 Euros here.
i drive a first gen 5 door Toyota Rav 4 right now but i think its too big for me, since i live alone now. A coupe would be the perfect size for me and its probably also more fun to drive
Nice Accord but no leather seats as Honda says. It’s pleather. Synthetic leather same with steering which is just foam . No leather on accords. Besides if it was it wouldn’t be as forgiving. I would love to have that car if you run across another in good condition let me know !
You mean no leather on the steering wheel? Nope, my steering wheel is starting to show a liitle wear and I can see it. It's genuine leather 100%. On the seats under my legs/a**/back - leather. Synthetic leather of course - only on the external parts on the seats. On the back seat - 2 seats - leather. The middle part - synthetic leather :)
Unbelievable you have one of the few Honda accords with real leather. I’ve put the seat covers on the cars they are not leather and the steering wheel is far from leather. Maybe your model CC2 has what Honda advertised in all their adds real leather. All the US models came with faux leather. When they first came out they were on back order it was a pleasant surprise to see the change in body and engine.
Are we going to ignore the fact that he keeps saying it’s a V6 but has a 3.0i badge? 3.0i means 3 liter inline 6 cylinder engine which would be not on this Honda,

Lol he does sound like Borat, "Respect (finger snaps!)"
I missed my old 4 cylinder accord coupe so much
Time for another
Man I miss my sedan … I regret selling it. Now I’m looking for one with a lower millage lol.
@@Kevun777 mileage doesn’t really matter that much as long as it runs well and if it’s in a good condition. As he said, the car barely breaks.
Not to sound weird but that's a really nice steering wheel :-)
damn the wheel and the gauge is the only thing i really hate on the 00 coupe.
Great car I prefer the 4cylinder I have it’s more reliable and is great when turbocharged
do you remember where you got your turbocharger kit?
Ebay

what's your mileage?
@@testdriveinc.6034 193k..how much longer in years u think I'll have it last?
Bout to get one for 1100. I have to go and clean the egr valve on site and then drive it home.... wish me luck. It’s gonna be my first car.

Hi, great video. I'm thinking about buying this car but the only thing I'm worried about are the RPMs on highway. I drive on a highway on a daily basis and I'm afraid that the 4 speed automatic gearbox is not enough for EU highways. Any experiences?
150km/h= 3500RPM I think it's ok, but of course it would be perfect to have at least 6 speed
@@testdriveinc.6034 My 2.2 prelude is on almost 4000 on 130km/h with manual, so this is quite surprising. I'm thinking of replacing a coupe like this.
I'm 22 this is my very first car I buy for 1500 not sure if that's the correct price but 133k miles it driven already not by me
that's a great price!
Good car connoisseur 👌
I have a 2001 V6 accord sedan and it’s still going strong! I’m about to hit 191,000 miles!
191k - for this car it's not a lot (with proper maintenance)

Hello here in slovenia i cant find ac compressor for this honda is there posible to by one there in poland thx david and by the way nice car
Gracias! Un buen trabajo! 👍.
Ok my 01 v6 Honda accord that I had until I hit a deer head overdrive
What model and year is this one? I have same car but mine doesnt have any of these amenities.
It's 1999/2000 Accord Coupe 3.0 V6. Maybe you have an American or Canadian version - they were often kinda poorly equiped
I heard that honda is not changeable to lpg, because off the not harded valves.
Do you change something?
No... this is simply not true :) You just have to adjust valves more often to prevent faster wear. And be sure to go to your LPG installer for check every oil change
@@testdriveinc.6034 ok.
Would you recommend a 2.0 with petrol or a 3.0 with lpg?
And what about the weight in the front?
Has the 2.0 more sporty feeling?
I really like this car and looking for a good one.
@@argexpert 3.0 V6 all the way! If you have LPG the balance of the car is actually better.
@@testdriveinc.6034 And if i don't want to put an experience lpg in the car?
Cause v6 has bad fuel economy.
Is the 2.0 also a good car. Or did it bring no fun ?
@@argexpert it's OK but you know. 3.0 V6 feels like it's a class above :)
I also have the 2.0L VTEC. Is the difference in power that great? I went with the 4cyl. because mainly VTEC memes and V6 engines are taxed ALOT here in Europe..
I know... but the difference is HUGE! V6 is a lot more powerful, operates on lower RPM's and is SMOOTH & CLASSY!
@@testdriveinc.6034 cool! I'm sure there's alot more torque (nm) in a V6 engine.
Automatic transmission high failure rate.
