Its a good car..
buy fuel . drive for a long distance.. if the gear does not misbehave... #good
Leg issues can be treated although i have used and still using different baby boy and have never change a ball joint or have it pulled before.
fuel is economical in as much as the catalyst has not be tampered with.
generally- it a strong car... i honestly love to to my 4 plug cos it moves with fierce ..
AC is a goal.
Good buy if the price is right.

Sir Erax, thanks so much.... can it bear rough roads?, and how do u see that engine?
I am really skeptical concerning fuel consuption cos its v6 and last thing if the catalyst is tampered can it be rectified for future use? And how much is the gear box pls
He also told me the AC is awesome

i stay in the "worstest" of road in ikorodu Lagos.... thebigkendo can attest to that (he also uses a Honda DC). our honda have withstand abuse from road sha.
I am confident in it anyday anytime.

As for Catalyst it can be replaced if it has been removed but i dont know if it performance(consumption) will be same as standard. we should ask the prof in the house.
One thing i know if it alright you might almost not feel the difference btw the 4plug and the 6 plug consumption wise.
Plus you will getting more power from the drive of the v6 engine....
unlike my 4plug embarassed embarassed embarassed

Bros just leave the car and look for a 4 cylinder engine..

Unless you want to become and apprentice mechanic grin grin then go ahead with the engine swap..it's more than just changing engine
You will need to change
- Engine
-Transmission
- Brainbox,
- Wiring harness
- Modification for engine seat
- Exhaust

Diportivo come complete this list for me

Don't bother... Simply look for a 4 plug engine.. You will ruin yourself/pocket in the process of changing it

with the distance of swimming required to get to ur area

we can agree that it's on the island truly grin


as for kwesi

if it's just to own and cruise around...enjoy ur ride

if taxi is involved,e go hard small o...except maybe u just wanna carry people on ur route whenever u are in transit....altho,it's not like it consumes fuel like a Mack truck.i own a V6 exactly the same colour like yours and I know say the fuel consumption no too bad

AC na actual cold room in disguise grin

if it's ur first car,the power will intoxicate u.....if u handle corolla like dis,na swear u go dey swear for the owner grin

Thank you all for your words and advice
Re: What To Look Out For While Buying A Naija Used American Honda Accord 2001 by oladipuposadeeq(m): 2:48pm On Oct 13, 2018
Sincerely it's better u go for a 4 plugs because it's easier to maintain but if u have checked it thoroughly and u have ascertained that the engine and gear is in superb condition and if the price is favorable I mean extremely favorable that if the vehicle develops certain issue in future u will be able to go back to the money left and use it for repair else don't go for it.
