1990 Honda Accord Sedan

We recently purchased this one family owned Honda from the daughter of the original owner. She inherited the car from her in 2017. The car spent its entire life garaged in Des Moines, Iowa. She just recently decided to part with teh car. In 2019 she spent $3k and got new tires, replacing the originals, R&R the timing belt and water pump, replaced the original muffler and the A/C serviced. In 2020 she spent over $1k replacing the A/C compressor. Since 2019 she put less than 1k miles on the car.

By 1990, Honda's Accord had run away with first the compact car segment then the mid-size car market in the United States. The Accord has achieved considerable success, especially in the United States, where it was the best-selling Japanese car for 16 years (198297), topping its class in sales in 1991 and 2001, with around 10 million vehicles sold. Numerous road tests, past and present, rate the Accord as one of the world's most reliable vehicles. The Accord has been on the Car and Driver 10Best list a record 38 times.

In 1989, the Accord was the first vehicle sold under an import brand to become the best-selling car in the United States. As of 2020, the Accord has sold more than 18 million units.

Made in Honda's Marysville, Ohio factory, the Accord was the first car from a Japanese manufacturer to made in the U.S. This example was trucked from the factory to Holmes Honda in Des Moines, Iowa. It underwent a pre-delivery inspection on July 23, 1990 and it was delivered to a man, Earl K. and his wife, Juanita, on August 30, 1990.

Finished in Red, the car's exterior is in overall great condition, the bodywork is straight and solid and the body-colored bumpers fit tightly to the body. The cargo area is clean and in good condition while the engine bay is clean.

This Accord rolls on Uniroyal Tigerpaw radials, size 185/70R14 at all four corners. Each one is mounted to a factory wheel cover. The wheels and tires are all in very good condition.

Under the hood is a 2.2L SOHC 16-valve four-cylinder engine with programmed fuel injection (code F22A1). The engine's timing belt was replaced on August 19, 2019 at 46,996 miles. It is linked to a four-speed automatic transmission with Sport mode and a lockup torque convertor. Driver convenience features include air-conditioning, variable-assist power rack-and-pinion steering, power brakes with discs in front, power windows, power locks, power sideview mirrors, cruise control, tilt steering column, rear window defroster and intermittent windshield wipers.

The fourth-generation Accord, introduced on the "CB"" chassis, was unveiled in 1989 for the 1990 model year. Although much larger than its predecessor, the sedan's styling was evolutionary, featuring the same low-slung design and wraparound rear window as the third-generation Accord.

This was one of the first U.S. production cars to feature optic reflectors with completely clear lenses on the headlamps. The styling reflected influences from the flagship Honda Legend (sold in North America as an Acura), as Japanese Accords were now sold at Honda Clio dealerships, where the Legend, and the Honda Inspire, were sold. The growing popularity of the Accord internationally was evident in the ever-increasing dimensions, which now matched almost exactly with the first-generation Legend introduced in 1985.

For this fourth-generation Accord, Honda made significant engineering design improvements. All Accords sold in North America came with a completely new all-aluminum 2.2-litre 16-valve electronic fuel-injected engine standard, replacing the previous 2.0-litre 12-valve model from the past generation. Also noteworthy, all Accords equipped with automatic transmissions used an electronically controlled rear engine mount to reduce low-frequency noise and vibration. The mount contained two fluid-filled chambers separated by a computer-controlled valve. At low engine speeds, fluid is routed through the valve damping vibration. Above 850 rpm, fluid is routed around the valve making the engine mount stiffer.

In the U.S., the LX-i and SE-i designations were dropped, being replaced with the DX, LX, and EX trim levels. The Canadian Accord trim levels varied slightly from the U.S. models with LX, EX, and EX-R roughly corresponding to the American DX, LX, and EX, respectively.

Because of tightening auto safety regulations from the NHTSA, all 1990 and 1991 model year Accords sold in the United States came equipped with motorized shoulder belts for front passengers to comply with passive restraint mandates. These semi-automatic restraints were a two-component system; a motorized shoulder belt along with a non-integrated and manually operated seatbelt. The shoulder belts automatically raced around each window frame encircling both the driver and front-seat passenger whenever the front door closed. The process reversed to release them when opened. The lap belts, however, still required manual fastening.

Documentation includes the original owner's manual, original pre-delivery inspection, original motor vehicle purchase document, original window sticker and original warranties. $4,000 in repair receipts from 2019/2020.

If you're looking for a clean, modern sedan, this Honda Accord should top your shopping list. It might evoke memories of the Accord you owned while in high school, in college or shortly after you married and had children. This Accord would also make someone a great second or third car.
