Just in case you thought that none of the cool kids ever do anything as lame as really making sure their loads in pickup truck beds are completely secure, let me scare you straight, you little punk: look what happens when you don’t properly secure your loads. You can cause situations like this, where a sheet of…
By what grace of god this 1981 Honda Accord was left unscathed over the past 37 years I do not know, but please take in how utterly immaculate it is, up for sale now with a scant 6,000 miles on the clock.
Read car news websites all day and you’ll get the impression that the only cars to ever catch on fire are Ferraris (all the time), Teslas (in wrecks), Fiskers (in your garage) or Lamborghini (when people rev them standing still). This is not the case. All kinds of cars catch fire, like this one right here holy shit…
Honda will stop production of the Accord for about two weeks this summer to “focus on aligning production to current market conditions,” a spokesperson told the Wall Street Journal. The current market conditions are that no one wants sedans anymore, not even the really, really good ones. We’re all monsters.
Whenever I travel outside of the United States, I feel like I’m always seeing various Hondas that, for inexplicable reasons, never made it to this glorious land of near-universal free soda refills. I’m not even talking about Honda’s wonderful Kei-class cars—I mean cars that, really could have been sold here, but…
It’s true some people believe that there is no replacement for displacement, but that’s honestly a mindset that is becoming more and more obsolete with how good and easily tune-able turbocharged cars are. The latest is the 2018 Honda Accord with the turbocharged 2.0-liter engine.
A trip to the U-Pull-It yard can be an adventure. Every once in a while, wandering amongst the rabble, you might stumble upon a longtime crush or a car that should have had a better fate. Let’s take a look at some of those.
Everyone has a Honda Accord story. Maybe it was your mom’s car. Maybe you had one in college, or used to join your friend on his delivery food runs. Maybe yours had Type-R stickers you’d prefer not to talk about today. With 13 million Accords sold since 1976, you may even be driving one right now. And if you’re not,…
Yesterday in Anderson, California, a man reported his 1991 Honda Accord stolen, then later tracked down, fought, and subdued the suspected thief in an epic citizen’s arrest.
A week ago, CarMax, the used-car dealer who says they’re better than other used car dealers, posted a video on YouTube offering $20,000 for Max Lanman’s fiancée’s 1996 Honda Accord, including $5,000 for the cat in the video, whose name is Papa Puff Pants. Now, CarMax says, they’ve made good. And to think CarMax…
Remember about a week ago when we showed you that incredibly well-done ad for a used 1996 Honda Accord? Then remember yesterday how we told you the price got so crazy high on eBay the auction was cancelled? Well, the auction was cancelled again, CarMax made a bonkers video offer, and the guy who’s selling the car was…
The 2018 Honda Accord ditches the V6 in favor of a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder as its most powerful engine option. It’s been heralded at many outlets—including admittedly this one—as being an Accord with the Civic Type R’s engine. While it is based on that motor, the newly released parts catalog reveals many…
It’s easy to take things for granted, and that’s a mistake. The world we live in right now, with all of its problems and concerns, is also an astounding one in many ways. One of those ways is producing car commercials that would have required a team of professionals just a couple of years ago is now in the hands of…
The humble Honda Accord has not sprouted into a sports car or been reborn as a limousine. But the new-for-2018 10th generation of the car is ergonomically excellent, mechanically tight and did I mention you can have it with the Civic Type R’s engine and six-speed manual transmission?
The 2018 Honda Accord is not the kind of car where you longingly stare at your window and find excuses to go for a drive, but it does have a long (41 years!) history of being dependable, decent transportation. The car’s been remade into its 10th generation for the new model year, and we’re driving it this week. What…
A man driving a stolen Honda Accord (the most stolen car in the U.S.) in California reached the pinnacle of human stupidity when he decided to ask a deputy for directions. The officer obliged, but also ran the car’s tags (because no shit). A police chase ensued (because again, no shit). And the man was arrested (yep,…
It’s not a good idea to ride the fuel tank down to empty, and yet I’ve gone on half a dozen food trips over the span of a week with the little light on before, each caloric quest inching up my anxiety but having no effect on my laziness. If this Car Throttle test is anything to go by, get an old Honda Accord and you…
Listen: the coupe market isn’t what it used to be. Hell, the sedan market isn’t even what it used to be. If the four-doors can’t stop getting creamed by the crossovers and SUVs, what hope do the two-door cars have? The latest victim of this: the Honda Accord Coupe.
Honda in the United States now sells a fastback Accord and an NSX. WHAT YEAR IS IT?
It’s happened again. According to the National Insurance Crime Bureau’s annual ‘Hot Wheels’ report, the 1997 Accord was the most stolen car in 2016, making a 90s Honda the most stolen vehicle in America four years in a row. What is it about these simple sedans that make them irresistible to less savory types?
