Finally, someone that understands my love for 80s and 90s cars.. people i talk to just dont get it.. when you drive one you just feel that the vehicle has a soul, its not just looks for me
As the driver of a 90s car. I don't get it lol. I had so much more connection to the road in my 2013 Camry compared to my current 2000 4Runner which was built in 99 and designed years earlier.
The 90's were a peak for cars in the U.S...you get the reliability and fuel efficiency of fuel injection over carburetion, yet the rest of the car had simple gauges and an uncluttered look. Plus, if you got a modest inline 4-banger SOHC with a manual transmission from that era, you can afford to keep it going and going even 25 or 30 years after they were produced with regular maintenance.
My 91 Accord is a 4 speed auto but it has only 55k original miles and aside from swapping out the timing belt every 50k or so I will make this thing last
Oof I think the 90s were the worst decade for cars in history. Not including this car as this was pretty early. But so many 90s cars aged very poorly style wise. Are very bubbly and full of cheap interiors. Even luxury cars from the era just look awful the materials all looks so cheap. I can't imagine a day where people will commonly look back at 90s cats and think of them as cool as we do with 70s and before. Most of them have aged very very poorly.
@@baronvonjo1929 I agree, most have aged poorly, especially compared to cars from the early-mid 00's like the '03 Infiniti FX, '04 Acura TL, or '04 Pontiac Grand Prix.
My sister bought a DX 4-door 5-speed in 1991. She drove it for two years and traded up to a '93 EX. My dad bought the '91 and he and my step-mom drove it well past 300k miles. Great cars!
Hi Zach, I worked for a Honda dealership, when these cars were brand new. First: The DX trim level designation was the least expensive model of the Accord or Civic line. This trim level of accord didn’t come with factory A/C. That was an accessory that was dealer installed, at the time. What you refer to as automatic seatbelts were known as ‘passive restraints’. The auto manufacturers of the time were attempting to get folks to wear seatbelts. It worked, for the most part. These were eliminated with the addition of drivers and passenger airbags because having both would have been very expensive. The one thing that you kept saying was simplicity. Honda’s big ad campaign was “We make it simple”. At the time, Honda only had three models. The Accord. The Civic. The Prelude. Very simple. Love the channel and your passion for cars.
@@jorgeo1492 That's it really, you did also get four wheel disc brakes and ABS I believe? ABS was I think optional on the CBs although I can't remember.
... they had both the crx at the beginning and the del sol at the end. Granted, they were within spitting distance of being a civic, but still a different car.
you didn't mention it, but there is an uncommon station wagon model for the 1990-1993 accords! called the cb9 by the accord community, they look so retro with the boxy front and the fat bubble back. I own a 1992 wagon accord with the 5 speed manual and everything else you said here is so true. It is so bare bones and functional that you feel everything -- the road, your shifts, the engine response, your comfy seating position. My car has a blue interior that is a lot less faded than the car featured in this video so it looks way more 90's dated and my passengers love the style. It is so cool to see a review for these accords because they rarely show up on youtube!
@@ShootingCars that's crazy you get to see one so often! I wouldn't say rare, just that Honda made and sold a lot less of the wagons than the sedans and coupe. In my three years of owning the wagon, I've only seen about 5 other wagons in person :0
I'm in the process of restoring a 91 EX manual wagon. Such a cool car! It's all original with 318k miles. Amazingly, it even has the Honda accessory CD player
My mom got one of these after a string of difficult cars, and we have been brand loyal since for over 30 years. Everything in here gives me nostalgia especially the shifter and the aftermarket radio❤️ thank you for making these reviews on older cars. Edit- this was a great little love letter to the accords and older Hondas in general 💙
I had a 92 accord, I bought it at 115k miles and sold it at 305k miles. I didn't want to sell it, but sadly I needed the money at the time. I had it for 12 years. No major problems, just oil changes, filter changes, and timing belt.
Programmed fuel injection 1990 lx, my grandma bought it in 1992 with 13k miles and then eventually gave it to my mom who took great care of it and finally wanted to buy a new car, so she gave it to me and we still have it, it runs great, needs some work little rust, trunk leaks, but I can't get rid of it for sentimental reasons
mine has 254,000 miles and still going like a champ !! probably will rebuild or swap remanufactured when time comes. Super easy to work on and timeless look
Unfortunately I wrecked a 1990 Honda Accord ex badly but I missed that car. I looked for another one in good shape but never could find a good one so now I have an 1987 Honda Accord Lx 😂mint condition and low mileage. Great car as well just slower
Had an 87 Accord LXi and loved it. It was fun to drive even though it had about 110 horsepower. It was the only car I’ve had where the brakes went out, though. My folks had Accords from the next two generations, including this one. All great cars.
I had a 91 LX in seattle silver - maroon interior. ha! This was a very reliable car. One thing to note, you had to put on the lap belt manually. If you didn't, the automatic top belt would kill you in a serious accident. I also had a Motorola bag phone permanently mounted with a rear window antenna for my phone. Good times!
Criteria BEFORE - Durability/Reliability/Ease of maintenance/Economy and cheap parts availability (Qualities for long term ownership and with DIY in mind) Criteria TODAY (More shallow to old school drivers) - Infotainment/Warranty/Fixed servicing costs/Automated conveniences/ automated safety (Little long term ownership or DIY in mind). In short the definition of Better has been transformed by manufacturers However if you were to judge based on criteria before (staying operational for life) it would be the 90 Accord > Newer cars However if you were to judge based on current criteria (gadgets and convenience) it would not be the 90 Accord BUT if the government really cared for the environment they would support retro fits/ right to repair laws and we could have the gadgets on these older accords giving the best of both worlds. There are retro fitting of ABS/Hybrid motors and even Full Electric conversions but without much if any assistance from the Government.
Hmm I might disagree with you on this. As the US automobile fleet is the oldest it had ever been in history. So I would say car makers have made it somewhat easier to keep their products on the road.
@@baronvonjo1929 That trend is to do with poor supply chains, reduced new car supply, loss of jobs and ability to change cars rather than durability of modern cars.
I still have a 93 SE model that looks almost new (one tiny door dent in the back). Unfortunately these models, while they were modernized with dual airbags, came only as automatic. I figure if the transmission goes out I can buy another one with a manual and do a conversion. But it is 33 years old and still all original, I see newer ones from the 2k era that haven't aged as well.
Growing up in the 90s one of the neighbors had the SE and it was so fancy w the leather seats. I loved the low cowl and big side windows in the accord. We had a Camry and the accord felt sportier in comparison.
I own a 91 Accord LX 4 speed auto with 55k original miles. New Honda approved transmission fluid, coolant, serpentine belt, alternator, starter, valve cover gasket, distributor, water pump, timing belt, NGK spark plugs, spark plug wires, battery, Torex full length exhaust, an all aluminum performance radiator (no plastic side tanks), thermostat. And this thing is ready to go another 30 years (change the timing belt every 75k) Could use a new interior and paint but this baby is rust free at 30 years old.
0:53 Hi there! Fellow CB9 Wagon owner here! Just wanted to add a note that if you got the SE Coupe or EX Wagon, you could've gotten the 140hp F22A6. Alternatively if you bought a automatic EX CB in 1990-91 you got a four-speed with a "sports mode" button. Basically it just lengthens time between each shift. My wagon is unfortunately an LX automatic from '92 so no A6 and no Sports Mode. I'm currently in the process of doing a manual trans and A6 swap from an EX Wagon. With any luck maybe I can get the sunroof too!
@Ace B. I'm just looking for a small power gain the stock a1 paired with the sluggish 4 speed just doesn't cut it. Plus it chews thru gas more. I'm hoping for at least 150-170 na
I'm sure you'd like to hear that sports mode was actually built into the post-facelift CBs! I have an auto '93 EX and at a certain point of throttle it engages, and at WOT the butterflies open and I get an rpm jump of almost 3k! Too bad you don't have an EX, the intake really makes the car fun!
After the cb7 review I found this channel... I still have my 93 cb7 how ever with a 95 prelude motor... And no it's not an H on purpose... It is a dual cam but it's an F22b non v and its being restored... It makes like barely 200 to the wheels... It will light up 3rd though... Great review my friend... Cb7 owners are a little weird...lol
My mom has one im driving now. 1990 Accord EX sunroof baby! 275k and still runs pretty cool. Power steering has a leak. But ill just refill it lol since its very hard to get to
The UA-cam algorithm works again. I’ve been shopping around for 90’s and early 2k Honda and Toyotas. Never thought about the 626 from Mazda though. I’m going to be building a track prepped car for a steet class and I’m not sure of the 626 aftermarket support.
92/93 ex is the one you want. Electric locks windows 5 speed. F22a6 (better cam and intake manifold from the a4) cruise control and a low spoiler on the trunk
I agree! I still have my 93 EX coupe. Bought it when it was only 5 years old. Although I have other vehicles, I still drive my accord often. Runs like a champ, and A/C still blows cold!
Well there is a guy called million mile Joe who drove a CB7 til it reached 1 million miles on his car. I'm not making this up. So as long as you take care of yours I'm sure you should be able to get plenty more miles out of yours
nice review. new accords are fun though, just not in the same way. i love the cb7, but i think you’re nostalgia is biasing you a bit. the new 2.0l turbo is a great engine that takes well to tuning, and sport trim comes with 6 speed manual. the aesthetics of the design is debatable but looks great lowered with wheels and tires. i agree its a much different accord, but can’t expect them to make the same car generation after generation. ✌🏾
I had the 92 accord and I wish I still had it! It was amazingly fun. Loved the low to the ground looks and inside it was so spacious! When you look at this car, you can see how bloated todays car are.
I love mine. I got a 1990 4d accord Ex with the a4. White with the spoiler. got the sunroof+cruse control. I agree with everything you said. The new cars are nice but they have to much stuff on them. Id rather have a down to earth drivers car. I have no abs, traction control, Stability control or air bags. I have had a lot of cars and i just find i enjoy the 90s cars better then pretty much anything else. other then my 2001 2d honda accord ex but that model came out in 98 so does that count as a 90s car still? I wish I still have my 01 and didnt sell it for a 2015 2d civic si completely regret doing it. sold the 2015 for a 2018 civic si lease but let it go back. ended up getting this 90s accord put quite a bit of work into it but it has cost really not much at all to get it running very well. also tons of forms for the cb7 and parts. Thanks for making this review. I sure do love seeing old hondas driving around. now only if i could find another 2 door accord that is in good condition id be set.
@@gregorsamsa1364 Airbags are nice for a daily driver car. Reading back i should have put that this isnt my daily car i have a toyota tundra for that. I actually gutted the interior out of the back of the car and am building it into more of a simi track fun car. I am just slowly building it up and prefer not having all the stuff for a fun car but it is a bit of a screaming metal death trap by todays terms. daily driving is always going to much safer in newer cars. I believe that the 92+ cb7 did come with airbags though. The 90 and 91 only had the sliding seat belts but still older cars just don’t have the safety all around that new cars do but that is also why a new civic is around 2900lbs and this 90s accord is around 2800lbs the new accord with the 2.0t is around 3300lbs. So about 500lbs more then this old accord.
I am happy that those power seatbelts were super rare here in Canada... or at least in Quebec... I did see some cars have them, but not our Canadian accords to my knowledge. My brother had a 1990 Honda Accord EXR... it was the normal not retarded auto seatbelts. The only car I saw in my life with those auto belts was an old Nissan Quest.
I see many videos destroying these older cars from late 80's and 90's and makes me sad because those were my youth when playing gran turismo 1 and 2...
The 2.2 I4 was one of the most reliable engines ever made. If you had two of them blow up on you either you didn’t maintain them correctly or it’s one of the biggest coincidences I’ve ever heard
Small yes, light yes, connected no. The car was very numb. It had the motions of driving manual but not the feelings. I would look into the corolla hatch (which I have a review of) which feels a lot better.
One more thing, that automatic antenna was trash. I went through three of the before I gave up. They were not very durable and certainly were not tested for ice - even light ice in the south.
I can't believe how dirty people keep their cars. I mean I'm not asking for a detail but at least clean it up if you offer to let a guy review it to show the whole world lol.
What a mess in the car..jeeez. Why you didn't clean the car before shoot the video? And poor engine need some rebuild I think. At least the head gaskets and other stuffs. A gallon oil laying on the head cover.
Finally, someone that understands my love for 80s and 90s cars.. people i talk to just dont get it.. when you drive one you just feel that the vehicle has a soul, its not just looks for me
@The Edwin Manna Filez 100%

@@baronvonjo1929 that’s because it’s a body on frame truck why would you expect it to have character like an accord
@@nicholasbragg8340 I don't get your reasoning. It's not about driving for me. It's the car itself.
Do other people not like driving older cars?

in my humble opinion, the best looking generation of Accord ever.
Just got my first car and it’s one of these, I 100% agree with you, shifting feels amazing it’s so responsive it just feels so amazing

2:54 ah... good old days when even family sedan came with carpeted doors and 100% soft plastic everywhere.
This body style is one of my favorite Hondas, and I think it is the best looking of all the Accords. The only downside is that it's pre-OBD2
I drove my buddy’s 1988 Nissan Pulsar 5 speed manual and that thing is so much fun to drive. I definitely wanna try an 80’s or early 90’s Honda
This is the era when Honda Accord were bullet proof. One of these Accord actually made it to 1,000,000 miles 👍👍
I had that same car and color and same year I loved it so much. It was straight piped and slammed so low it was absolutely obnoxious haha

0:53 Hi there! Fellow CB9 Wagon owner here! Just wanted to add a note that if you got the SE Coupe or EX Wagon, you could've gotten the 140hp F22A6. Alternatively if you bought a automatic EX CB in 1990-91 you got a four-speed with a "sports mode" button. Basically it just lengthens time between each shift.

@Ace B. From an F23? That's my plan after I put new pistons and a cam in the a6. I believe the heads are interchangeable like on the D-series
@Ace B. I'm just looking for a small power gain the stock a1 paired with the sluggish 4 speed just doesn't cut it. Plus it chews thru gas more. I'm hoping for at least 150-170 na
@Ace B. I heard the stock a6 intake is pretty good cuz those iabs tho. The ultimate flex would probably be ITBs but those are mad expensive lol
@Ace B. Yeah I heard h series parts are freely interchangeable like injectors in stuff. But a type r? The EP3 gen?
I'm sure you'd like to hear that sports mode was actually built into the post-facelift CBs! I have an auto '93 EX and at a certain point of throttle it engages, and at WOT the butterflies open and I get an rpm jump of almost 3k! Too bad you don't have an EX, the intake really makes the car fun!

Such a timeless sedan. When Hondas were built like tanks, the CB7 is a confirmed tank indeed, these babies can last for 500k miles easily
Please for the love spray those wheelcovers. Would make a big difference. Great video.
Way Better Car Easy to work on yourself, And very reliable! And it doesn't have all the BS that's on Newer CARS, THAT CARS DONT NEED!
watched 10 mnts but felt like 1 minute
keep up the good work
that body reminds me f the Honda Concerto (which was made in partnership with Rover, and was sold as the Rover 214/216/218)...
Some of the Rovers did have honda engines and styling unfortunately the electronics/ wiring were not held to honda quality and the cars had issues.
I dont have this 4th gen accord...but I do have a 3rd gen 86' hatchback that im trying to get running...thanks for the review!
I received a recall for the seatbelts in my 90 lx .
I want more 80s hatchback reviews. I have been looking for one but most seem to have been destroyed by rust.
92/93 ex is the one you want. Electric locks windows 5 speed. F22a6 (better cam and intake manifold from the a4) cruise control and a low spoiler on the trunk
I agree! I still have my 93 EX coupe. Bought it when it was only 5 years old. Although I have other vehicles, I still drive my accord often. Runs like a champ, and A/C still blows cold!
Omg 😃 AMAZING 😍 90S ACCORD ARE THE BEST I OWN ONE TOO.

Id rather have a down to earth drivers car. I have no abs, traction control, Stability control or air bags. I have had a lot of cars and i just find i enjoy the 90s cars better then pretty much anything else. other then my 2001 2d honda accord ex but that model came out in 98 so does that count as a 90s car still? I wish I still have my 01 and didnt sell it for a 2015 2d civic si completely regret doing it. sold the 2015 for a 2018 civic si lease but let it go back. ended up getting this 90s accord put quite a bit of work into it but it has cost really not much at all to get it running very well. also tons of forms for the cb7 and parts. Thanks for making this review. I sure do love seeing old hondas driving around. now only if i could find another 2 door accord that is in good condition id be set.
Yeah, I also, enjoy the 90's era of cars, especially the Japanese cars.
i definitely prefer airbags, but i know what you mean
@@gregorsamsa1364 Airbags are nice for a daily driver car. Reading back i should have put that this isnt my daily car i have a toyota tundra for that. I actually gutted the interior out of the back of the car and am building it into more of a simi track fun car. I am just slowly building it up and prefer not having all the stuff for a fun car but it is a bit of a screaming metal death trap by todays terms. daily driving is always going to much safer in newer cars. I believe that the 92+ cb7 did come with airbags though. The 90 and 91 only had the sliding seat belts but still older cars just don’t have the safety all around that new cars do but that is also why a new civic is around 2900lbs and this 90s accord is around 2800lbs the new accord with the 2.0t is around 3300lbs. So about 500lbs more then this old accord.
Put popups, make the seats shittier, and make the climate control on a sliding wire thing, and you have the 3rd gen. And the vacuum leaks, everywhere.
I've owned 3 of these
This was the pinnacle for Accords...93 Anniversary Edition please....but the automatic wasn't as fun as the stick shift.
I am happy that those power seatbelts were super rare here in Canada... or at least in Quebec...
I did see some cars have them, but not our Canadian accords to my knowledge.
My brother had a 1990 Honda Accord EXR... it was the normal not retarded auto seatbelts.
The only car I saw in my life with those auto belts was an old Nissan Quest.
I think I'm gonna put dx doors on my lx roll up windows are the way to go be a little lighter too I assume
228k miles on my 92 lx and my shifter feels the same. And I treat it like a racecar. Cause it will take it
I fw the boxy style of 80s/90s cars looks more like a car
"it's super bright out here it's like 9 AM" (clock says 10:57)
I got a 1992 Honda Accord 5 speed it’s nice 🔥🔥
Is there a way to get HONDA to retro these as an EV with same design and all?
i love this model, my model car is cb3 90 :D
My CB7 came with the F22A6 making a whopping 140 hp! 😂
I see many videos destroying these older cars from late 80's and 90's and makes me sad because those were my youth when playing gran turismo 1 and 2...
Shooting Cars is the yang to RCR's yin
Pain to smog though...since obd1...most places won't smog them...if your in ca might want to think about that
I love it sooo much Accord 1990
Best Gas too 😍
This is cool but why so dirty inside , feel like a wipe down would have made this shine more
The cb7 accord, you have to drive it to believe it
I had two '92 Preludes with the same engine and both of them blew up on me.
The 2.2 I4 was one of the most reliable engines ever made. If you had two of them blow up on you either you didn’t maintain them correctly or it’s one of the biggest coincidences I’ve ever heard
Fun car to drive n enjoy
I’ve Been Looking To Buy This Car For a While And I Can’t Find It Anywhere
Does your trunk leak, mine has the 2.2 it's the lx
You seemed disappointed in your manual Yaris review. Do you feel like the Yaris captures any of that small, light connected driving experience?
Small yes, light yes, connected no. The car was very numb. It had the motions of driving manual but not the feelings. I would look into the corolla hatch (which I have a review of) which feels a lot better.
Just bought a 10th anniversary edition
I HAVE AN F22A9, F YOUR R32 I HAVE MY DREAM CAR
The seatbelt thing happens to me here and there is there something for me to fix it or make it less common
Honda has lifetime warranties on their seatbelts.
One more thing, that automatic antenna was trash. I went through three of the before I gave up. They were not very durable and certainly were not tested for ice - even light ice in the south.
really nice car i want to buy it and i have old passion
Would you be able to do a 1998 Honda Passport
It was simple at least it wasn't a lot money repair electric parts like it is now
Honda its a great 🚗👍
I can't believe how dirty people keep their cars. I mean I'm not asking for a detail but at least clean it up if you offer to let a guy review it to show the whole world lol.
Excellent
I own a 93 lx
I own a 93' lx manual 340k miles.When i bought this car it back in 2008 it had 232k miles on it.
I can’t drive 55
I like the color but this one is busted, not taken care of at all.
could of cleaned up the car a little before shooting lol interior looked like shit.
That being said.... i love these things!
i have wagon ;)
👍💖💚
What a mess in the car..jeeez. Why you didn't clean the car before shoot the video? And poor engine need some rebuild I think. At least the head gaskets and other stuffs. A gallon oil laying on the head cover.
