2000 Honda Accord EX 4 cylinder

Summary:

A great dependable sedan

Faults:

No malfunctions have occurred as of this date.

General Comments:

I like the fuel economy of the four cylinder. If I had it to do over again, I would have bought the six cylinder because it is smoother and has less vibration than the 4 cylinder.

Fit and finish as always is excellent.

Reliability and high resale values are important issues for me as a buyer.

Horrible review. I'm looking at one and this review does me no good nor justice for the car.

2000 Honda Accord EX

Summary:

Love Hondas

Faults:

I love my Accord and always have. This is the fourth Honda I have owned, however I had a problem with my car and it was out of warranty.

The front brakes on the car went out fairly early.

General Comments:

I had taken the car to the dealer but the prices were outrageous! They had quoted me $98.88 per rotor for the front and $65.66 for the front brakes. I was shocked, in talking to my wife we found a dealer in VA that sold and shipped me the parts. I then took them to the dealer and they put them on. I only paid $63.16 per rotor and $32.73 for the front brakes. These parts were still under the Honda warranty. Shipping was only $7.00 bucks. I now order all my parts through them, even accessories. Everyone should try them, 1-800-531-2756 you will love these guys,... so will your wallet!!!

I saved $105.00 dollars!!!

2000 Honda Accord LX V-6

Summary:

Nice, but I am worried

Faults:

The car rolls backwards even on slight inclines. Honda says that they have had many complaints but this is the way the car is designed. They are not concerned with our safety. It is a shame, the car is great looking and runs well, but in the end don't you want a company that will take care of your concerns.

General Comments:

The back seats are uncomfortable for my passengers.

The majority of automatics have a strong hold over the clutch, one of the reasons that when you put the car on the flat and release the brake it will "creep" forward.

I've noticed that the Honda has far better control over the clutch, so that the car doesn't creep so much, meaning less wear & tear on the clutch.

The flipside of this is that the car won't hold itself on an incline, but then, surely on an incline, you should either be putting your foot on the brake or the gas.

I don't think it's a fault on the Honda, rather that Honda's auto box is far superior to most auto's. I believe that this is why the Honda's auto change is so fast and smooth compared to every other auto I've driven (particularly the Rover 800 - it takes *ages* to change gear).

Honda transmissions are not smooth or reliable. American ones are far superior.

Responding to the comment above:

Yeah, I agree... but everything else falls apart on American made cars now a days.

I've gotta disagree with the smooth-shifting transmissions... most Hondas (especially older models) do shift pretty rough. However, they're built to last-just ask any Honda owner.

I'd rather have a smooth transmission that will last only 130,000-miles or so rather than put up with a ruff bash shifting tranmission that last 200,000-miles.

I don't want to keep a new car more than 7 or 8 years anyway.

Summary:

Great car, great looking, poor paint

Faults:

Very smooth, well performing car.

Paint job on the bumper sucks!! Paint scratches, peels with slight touch or pressure, no durability.

I agree with the poor paint job.

I have a white accord and the bumper started yellowing after one month I bought the car. I bought a brand new 2000 in early march of 2000. the mileage on my car was 7miles.

I had the same issue with paint on the bumper of my UK Accord. Had a word with the dealer, and they replaced it free of charge without hesitation. This could in part be due to the high quality of most Honda dealers in the UK, but I also suspect they are well used to moans about the paint jobs!

I have a silver 2000 Accord cpe. At best, the paint job is crappy. I had to get touch-up paint to cover the big chips to keep rust from forming on the hood--nevermind trying to keep the paint job pristine. I gave up on front bumper. For comparison, my father's '97 Toyota Avalon white paint job, although 3 years older, is still brilliant.

Summary:

Reliability + luxury = Accord

Faults:

None at all.

General Comments:

Excellent handling and ride.

Great seats (especially the leather interior).

Only low: No 5-speed available on the V6 (available for the next generation).

My next car will definitely be a Honda again.
