Used Honda Accord for Sale in Detroit, MI

I bought this car used for $1200 with 185,000 miles on it. Despite the area that it was kept being notorious for terrible Winters, it had very little rust, no squeaks or rattles and no suspension issues what so ever. For it being a 1997 I was exceptionally pleased with the fact that there were also no leaks. A year later and 30,000 miles put into it, I have only had to change the brakes, and the distributer cap. It reliably starts up perfect every single time with out fail and runs beautifully. The gas mileage it receives for being as old as it is absolutely phenomenal considering how expensive gas is these days. I can easily drive a full week back and forth to my job 5 miles away plus other miscellaneous trips to various stores and other errands on less than 20$ in gas per week. Very few cars on the road these days can boast that with out being a hybrid.

My gold Accord started its life with a colleague who drove it gently and babied it. Being a Honda, it was destined to be reliable and it has not let me down. It had 70,000 miles on it when I bought it about six years ago, and it now has 180,000 and is still running as smoothly as the day I bought it. The dealership always comments about how nice a condition the car is in for its age and mileage. I could probably trade it in for a fair price, but I do not want to part with it. The only thing I don't like is the impression an Accord gives that the owner is very conventional.
