Tell him to sell you the car cheap then and then just swap in an H22... You would be very happy...Black cars are sexy...

You guys are really great on replies. Thank you.

Here is some answers...

To Go-N-Low

I could get JDM H22A motor and have swap but there is some problem.. From this year 2003, automotive inspaction on imported cars must meet year 2005 European smog law.. If it does not passed the smog inspection - No Green Korean license plate..


To patastinky

We do have some USDM Accords in Korea.
You telling by looking at Speedometer (KPM or MPH)
Usually 98 and up.. (6th generation Accords) Why?
Year: 90 ~ 97: Korean Version Accords (EX only)
Imported by Hansung Motors(?) I am not really sure.. They stop importing the Accords after year 96...
98 and up: private owner - Accord from US.

We do have 4th generation 10th Anniversary version but its USDM.
Also JDM Accords (right hand drive)... F20A

Last year Honda Motor of Japan opened Motocycle dealer in Seoul, Korea and some time this year...will have offical Honda Automotive dealer.

Currently.. Lexus - only Japanese offical car dealer in Korea..

I will try to get Frost White 92 or 92 Accord EX sedan.
I want airbag.. No more automatic seat belts....


To Howitt.

In winter, Korea does not use salt on the road.. instead... sand or snow chains... So I don't have to worry about the rear quater panel being having rust..

i belive that moonroof is stock. just a general rule of thumb, no aftermarket moonroof is perfect. i have yet to see one that does not leak in the rain.

Default 10th AnniversaryAccord info

Allright, kiddies,here's the scoop with the 10th Anniversary 1993 Honda Accord:

It comes in 3 colors- Black, metallic Green, and Frost White.

It has NO SUNROOF. Only the EX and SE have the sunroof. the 10th Anniversary, LX, and DX did not.

The 10th Anniversary Accord is basically a glorified LX with EX/SE features. It has the 125hp F22a1 engine that is found in the LX and DX, and only came with a 4 speed automatic transmission.

It was also a mid-year addition to the lineup (think 93 1/2). The 10th Anniversary name came from the 10th anniversary of the Honda plant in Ohio, USA.

The 10th has standard ABS with 4 wheel disc brakes, single airbag (not dual on the SE), power windows and mirrors, lower air valences under the front and back bumpers, and BODY COLORED MOULDING like on the SE (instead of that unattractive black rubber strip that goes around the waistline of the rest of the Accords).

Six spoke alloy wheels came on the 10th Anniversary models with 195/60/15 tires. Replacement alloys at your local Honda House will run approx $190 each in the event of an accidental bent wheel or road rash from rubbing curbs.

If you are looking for aftermarket parts for a 10th Anniversary, look for LX parts unless its an air intake, then look for one with the ABS compatibility.

How fast is it? A 10th Anniversary will run even with a 93-97 Mazda MX-6 and will defeat a 93-96 Toyota Camry. Several Ford Explorers have fallen victim to an Accord 10th Anniversary Edition.

How do I know all this good info on the 10th Anniversary Edition Accord? I own one. Frost white. What do I have on it? Well, lets see... How about an APEXi WS cat-back exhaust, short ram intake with K&N style filter, front and rear strut tower bars, rear lower tie bar, HID headlights, and assorted strobes (good for distracting someone at a stoplight drag race (just get going and flip 'em on and they think a cop's around (police DO frown upon strobes on the road))).

Take care all and BEHAVE on the road like I do

Thanks for the all the info....

Last Feb. 10,2003 I finally purchased Black 1993 Accord 10th Anniversary Edition.. Its very nice car but previous owner didn't take care of the car.. so currently I am fixing the problems.. one by one.... Anyway mine has aftermarket power sunroof, Clarion 2din stereo, factory OEM spoiler, and tinted windows. Thats all.

I really wanted Frost white EX just like my last Accord (1991) but long as I got 4G Accord... I am happy...
