I still love my 97 Honda Accord and still I am using it. I feel it great when I go for a long drive.

A light blue 1989 Civic hatchback DX. My first Honda/car and I loved it. It had 126,000 miles on it and a bad automatic transmission. It would grind and stick between 1st and 2nd gear, but I was able to get 1.5yrs out of it before replacing the transmission. I was always amazed at the room in that car everytime I packed my entire drum kit into it. This isn't it, but looks a lot like it, except I had hub caps

My first experience began when my late wife and I were car shopping for her. We drove 2 Toyotas, a Corolla and a Cresida, a Mazda 626, and a Datsun (Nissan) 240SX. Then we drove the Accord sedan with a 5-speed manual and bought the car that day, even though my wife couldn't drive it.
Another significant Honda experience was the difference between the 2nd Gen and 3rd Gen cars. Our '88 was a huge leap in terms of technology, features, size, power, and overall refinement. Some of you may disagree but, I believe there has not been that much improvement between successive generations since.

My first Honda was a 1992 Prelude Si. I didnt have much money so I did all the upgrades and random "customization" at home myself LOL. Definately a learning project. I have owned a 1992 Accord Coupe, 2003 TL, and now Im on My 6th Gen.

A friend picked me up in her new 1984 Prelude. Coming from a family of Old Cutlass Supreme Cruiser Wagons (think Wally World) and other huge, archaic Detroid metal, the Prelude was a space ship. I was hooked.

My first car was a Victoria Red Accord HB. Loved it. They kept getting better and better, mostly. :P

Well,

My first Honda that amazed me was a 1991 Honda Accord Sedan, LX. The only thing I was not thrilled about was the interior, it was red. But the driving characteristics, and all the little gadgets were amazing, ended up owning that car for 4 years.....a still sold for a descent amount of $$$$.

I rented one back in 1989 for a trip to White Plains NY to visit a female I meet.

Been a Honda lover ever since!

Hello,

I think models of Honda cars are really good they give good mileage and designs. I don't have Honda model but recently one of my friend bought it and i went for a test drive. That was really cool...




Regards,
Olivia
