Used 1984 Honda Accord for Sale Nationwide

Overview
Although still early in the second generation, the 1984 Honda Accord actually came with quite a few changes.
For those who are more into looks, the '84 Accord now had a new grille, new headlights, and bumpers that looked more like they were part of the car instead of add-on pieces.
There was also a luxury trim added to the Accord sedan line, and the LX Accord came standard with power doors and windows, a cassette deck with 4 speakers, and air conditioning.
For those to whom power matters, Honda spruced up the engine in the '84 Accord. It was now a 1.8-liter, bringing the horsepower up to 86. But, because of new emissions rules, the CVCC engine was retired and a catalytic converter became necessary.
As with the other Accords, current owners of the 1984 Accord gush about reliability and fuel efficiency. Complaints, though, now include weak rotors causing shuddering brakes and the tendency to rust all over.

I owned this car during my college years. This is an excellent car... very reliable. I never had a problem with the car. This car was a real trooper... this car really took a licking and keept on ticking. During my college years I drove this car everywhere, and had a couple of accidents, but this little guy kept trucking along. I've heard that is year and model was one of the best built by Honda, and i honestly belive thats a fact.

Excellent commuter car. Ugly? I beg to differ--reminds me of my old 82 Scirroco! I bought it with about 120K miles for $600 in ok shape with a few cosmetic issues, mainly rust that occurred only on the top along two superfluous strips of trim. It had a tendency to stall until I found a loose air hose from somewhere under that rat's nest of carb hoses under the air filter, after which it has continued to run flawlessly for over 30k miles. The engine is very smooth and quiet and has good power for a 1.8L. The 5 speed is geared very well for both low and high speeds, making it a great car to negotiate starts and stops of city traffic. It actually accelerates well, even when keeping revs below 3500-4000 between shifts. It handles ok at low speeds but is terrible in the rain at 50 mph, though it has plenty of power to coast 85 on the freeway on dry days. I had the timing belt changed, I improvised some wiring (when the multi-switch burned out), replaced the brake booster when it blew out (the bolt under the steering was THE biggest pain EVER to remove, AND the booster itself was a chore in itself), and my driver-side window is managed by arranging 2 sections of 2x4 wood and 1 1x2 after the window regulator jammed. But hey--the car hasn't left me stuck in 30k miles! Even after I hydroplaned into a barrier on a particularly rainy day (see the handling comment above) it eventually started up with only minor cosmetic front damage. It leaks a quart of oil ever 4 months or so. It's been getting about 28mph in city driving. The seats aren't made to accomodate 6' or taller and I had to improvise the headrest. It carries quite a bit of stuff with the back seats down (and accomodates 2 in the back fine for short trips). Also, after 25+ years, there are no water leaks in the rain, heater works, AND the original analog clock is perfectly accurate!

This car ran incredibly well, burned very little gas, held a *lot*, and was very comfortable, though not luxurious. I regularly got 40+ mpg on long trips. It didn't have much get-up-and-go, but I still managed to get a speeding ticket with it.

I inherited this Accord through my family- my grandparents bought it new is 84 and literally only drove it on Sundays for years; 23 years later it's got only 68,000 miles on it! Other than the inevitable paint chipping and the odd rust spot it's in remarkable condition. I like it because it's not so small that it can't compete on the road, but still it's big enough for a solid work car and casual driver.
