I picked up my friends 91 EX 4-dr auto w/218,XXX miles for $500 and love driving it more than my 94 civic. Although, I just started having problems with poss. the main relay, fuel pump, or fuel filter. Other than that, I enjoy mine alot!

93000 miles is just getting broken in. These cars frequently rack up 300,000 miles with regular maintenance. I bought a 92 with 103,000 miles 5 years ago and now have 235,000 miles. I have replaced both cooling fans, the blower fan, and the clutch, with nothing else other than normal tune up parts. Oh yeah, ball joints and tie rods, but I live in the bumpy south.

I can't complain about my 92 EX. It's got over 213,000 miles, and runs great with the exception of 3rd gear synchro needs replaced.

I bought a 92 with 135k and in 6 months i put 50k on it. The only thing that i have had problems with was the radiator, other than that i have had no problems, in the winter it starts every morning, and it doesnt burn any gas go for it.

my 93 is going great. runs amazing for me and and for 200 bucks was the best thing i could invest my money in. im definetly beginning to get the typical "whale sound" which needs fixing but i cant complain about reliability.

If it isn't beat up or rusty get it! I've got just over 150k on my 93 ex with the original clutch. Doesn't burn any oil, and the only thing ever replaced on the car was the timing belt and normal wear items like wiper blades tires and brakes. Wonderful cars!

i don't know about u guys but ive had a few problems with my 93 accord, first the master cylinder gives out, the the oil pan gasket cracks, then the distrubutor goes out, and then the alternator, and now the fans are giving me crap and overheating my car, its a good car if your willing to fix it but it has problems just like any other car will have, other then that they are good cars, just watch out for the ten thousand other riced out pieces of crap CB's

But you have to realize those parts wear out on any car. In the 7 years that I had my cb7 I replaced the radiator, ignition module, oil pan gasket and cv boots...those are cheap and easy to replace/repair. I had 195K on her and everything was perfect with that car, only thing I needed to do was the driver window would come off track and would be slow to roll up in cold weather, easy fix though.

93K is just a baby, if it doesn't burn any oil or have any leaks then I say go for it...I have seen countless cb7's run 200+ thousand miles without major problems .
