Honda Accord Usados en Venta en Seattle, WA

Best car I owned. I brought it new in 2000 for about $24,000. It is still my daily driver after 18 years of service. I don't drive much so it has only a little over 105,000 miles on it. It is a coupe, but the back seat area is quite large. Matter of fact, I think it's only 2-3 inches shorter than the four-door version. The trunk is also large for a coupe, and the back seats fold down for even more space if transporting long objects. I was able to transport 4x8 wood plants in it by leaving the seat down and passing it through the trunk. It has great gas mileage for its age. I haven't had any major issues with it and will be keeping the car for the foreseeable future.

Before getting this newer version, my previous Honda - this one a Civic, went over 260,000 miles and ran like a champ. It re-sold for $1,400 - meaning the car depreciated less than a thousand dollars in a decade and 130,000 miles. This car has been just as much a workhorse. While it is true that the little 4 banger engine does leave something to be desired, the car you get for the price more than makes up for it. It may not always be peppy, but at 25-30 miles per gallon, you rarely wish it had more juice. My first two cars were BMWs, and those things were trouble waiting to happen. On the other hand, my Hondas have always been both reliable and casual, the desire to race in them is non-existent. So while it may be a mom car in some respects, when it comes to moving across state or carrying three friends, the Honda cannot be beat.
