Default What do you think of this car I'm thinking about buying, its a 99 Accord Coupe EX V6

Im looking for an 98+ Accord Coupe EX V6... for cheap of course

I was hoping to get a silver one, but, its time for a reality check. Theres only a few and they're fat cash.

I found this car and the price seems pretty good, the only drawback seems to be the mileage.

its a 99 Coupe EX V6
white with tan leather
91,000 miles

anyone got a carfax acct? i'd like to run a VIN check.

i checked it out, it was late and partly covered with snow, but, everything looks pretty good. took it for a drive and everything seems cool there too. im not sure if a spoiler comes standard or not, but its got a spoiler, fog lights, cd & cassette, climate control, etc.

what do you guys think? a few people i asked (non honda and non accord people as well) said the mileage is high and so is the price, but, they OBVIOUSLY never looked into buying an accord. these things are mad expensive!

anyways, gimme your input and if someone can do a VIN run, here it is:

The price sounds reasonable, but I think you could probably knock another couple hundred $ off the price since the mileage is so high. Good luck!

Miles seem very high, but hopefully you inspected the vehicle and made sure all preventative maintenance had been done for the first 90K miles.

Regardless, Congratulations and I hope you won't be disappointed.

Got a '98 Accord Coupe EX-V6 in Regence Silver (of course) myself.

Hey thanks buddy.

They said they have all records, I really didn't get to go over it as much as I wanted to between when they were open and how late I've been working, etc. I am supposed to pick it up at 7pm today, I think I am going to try to get out work a little earlier and maybe stop by at 6 or 6:30 and just check it over again and take it for another drive before I close the deal.

I hate to think about it... but, if worse came to worse and there was a problem, more than likely I could fix it myself and save $$$ on labor.

Biiiig Piiimpiiiin

I love it!

Its so easy just to "cruise" around, one thing that was quite hard in my gsr. I was always riding the clutch and making the whole dash shake trying to drive it easy. I still love the GSR and it has a special place in my heart, but, this car is more suited for my driving now.
